Sep 30 2009You'd Be Better Off Making Your Own: Max's Wolf Suit From Where The Wild Things Are
This is a reproduction of the wolf suit worn by Max in Maurice Sendak's iconic Where The Wild Things Are (soon to be a major motion picture!) manufactured by Opening Ceremony. I thought it was pretty damn cool until I saw they're charging $610. Now it's not. At all.
"by staring into their yellow eyes without blinking once", max was made the king of the wild things. you can achieve his look far more easily with max's iconic wolf play suit. identical to the one illustrated by maurice sendak and brought to life by spike jonze, our collaborative piece with the director features a super soft faux fur one piece with six brown buttons down the front, a snap off faux raccoon fur tail, attached fingerless gloves, and a hood with attached ears and a snap closure at the neck.
Yeah, I'm just gonna make my own, thanks. And by make my own I mean have one of you folks do it. Last time I tried making my own costume I woke up with my head sewn to the arm of the couch and a cat sitting on my cheek bare asshole. TUCK YOUR TAIL UNDER NEXT TIME, GOD!

Nice child molester costume.
She SORTA makes it work--he looks like Pikachu. If Pikachu was a child molester. They should sell an assless version.

If I had more money than brains, I'd buy one...
10. Foxx - September 30, 2009 2:06 PM
All who purchase one should have their info publicly posted for everyone else to ridicule them for spending that much money on something so stupid

*Hides credit card, looks around*
What? Why are you all looking at me!?
12. Skankypanda - September 30, 2009 2:13 PM
Is it wrong that I would definitely have sex with the girl WHILE she had the suit on?
13. patrickyayo - September 30, 2009 2:14 PM
what a rip off
14. HeyHey - September 30, 2009 2:18 PM
You know what?
That looks like something I'd love to curl up on the couch in. If it wasn't a car payment...
But it does look really freaking comfy.. * decisions decisions*

I can't wait until this movie is released so I can stop hearing about it.
16. JADE - September 30, 2009 3:02 PM
I would sooooo wear that while watching The Breakfast Club for the 1trillion time.
17. LSDiesel - September 30, 2009 3:15 PM
I would buy it if the girl comes with it. I wouldn't if the black dude did.

Girls like cute things, and girls like textures in fabric ESPECIALLY fuzzy and soft things.
I wouldn't buy this but I'd make my own and wear it. Trust me, the dude who wears this out on halloween night will get mega attention from hotties and will get laid many times over. They'll run up to you and start stroking you if you're wearing anything similar. It's up to you to know how to do something with it, though ;)

I've wanted a Max onesy since I was a wee fella but unless the suit is made from diamonds and has a built in fleshlight then there's no way I'm blowing $610US - that's, like, $8mil NZ =O
24. The MeRC - September 30, 2009 9:00 PM
Is it ok to have sex with her while she is wearing the suit? It would be MANDATORY!
25. truth lies - October 1, 2009 12:06 AM

27. Mike - October 1, 2009 2:35 AM
A handjob from her soft furry mits would be lovely thank you.
From him... not so much.

A little on the expensive side, but if you don't spoil yourself with new pajamas then who will?

I look better when I wear my snow leopard outfit. I'm the oldest real wild thing in the US. I love having claws for my hands & feet. I'm like totally obsessed with the wild things love the book soo much I love being just like Max a wild thing. I love being a 5 year old & I'm 25. I'm the snow leopard cat kid. I never actually had a chance to be a wild thing as a kid that's why I'm one now.
