Heh, ah, no. The costumes were a bit of a debacle, actually. The heads kept slipping around, and the boxes on their arms made it impossible for them to reach their heads and straighten them. Plus the boxes on their legs made it surprisingly hard to walk. After about three houses both kids were very upset and we had to shuffle back home and do an emergency costume-ectomy. I duct-taped sticks to the interior corner of each head, so they could hold it up in place like a Mardi Gras mask. We took all the arms and legs off Minifobette, and everything except the non-mask-holding arm for Minifob. They were disappointed, but they agreed that they weren't realistically going to be able to trick-or-treat with the full costumes on, and once we got back out on the street and kids still recognized what they were, they were happy.
