Finally all pieces align in the cosmos to form MECHA GODZILLA

[mattdeml]

This made my whole day. I remember losing my shit back in November when you announced MechaGodzilla and to see it all come together in such an amazing way almost a year later has been amazing! Congrats on the successful cosplay! You've made a Godzilla fan really excited and happy

[G.F.Browning]

When ever Odin took off his face grill all I could think of was Hannibal in the Aquamaniac in the A Team

[jfz]

This might just be one of your most anticipated projects ( at least for me) and seeing it finally finished is just astounding. So much work must’ve went into this and I seriously commend you for it. Awesome job and keep up the incredible work

[larryu]

I love seeing your humor starting to come out more and more during the videos as you get more and more comfortable.

[ringslingerken]

Love to see the final product! Great work Odin!

[neonnerd]

Finally it's all done. Amazing job Odin. It looks better than the movie suit by far. I can't wait to see what you build next.

[tinfly]

Congrats on finishing the most badass portable sauna.

[v_zach]

That was great to see Gundam and Mechagodzilla together. FIRST TO THE EGG!

[willstockton]

You definitely have way too much fun when making props like this

[aaronbanquer]

Quick tip for you Odin. When making a cut into any foam where a sharp point will be made, cut from the fat end towards the point. Regardless of the sharpness of the knife, the cut usually ends up being cleaner. This is because when you enter a cut from the point side, the foam compresses on itself easier on both sides and typically ruins the beginning of the cut line. This is also regardless of which cut side will be used because both cut edges get affected.

It's great to see the result of so much skill and effort. It must be so satisfying to pour so much into a piece of art and then be able to wear it around and show it to people. Incredible!

I’m so happy to see the final cosplay and Odin stomping around! Love these big monthly projects and I am excited for whatever is next in store

[ralphmourik]

This project is freaking awesome!!! One day I will visit a Con over there, and make selfies with you and the team 👍👊

[articulation]

I always love when you say the last frase, it’s always so dramatic in the good sense of the word. Also love when you say variations like in this video.

[thterrax]

Odin you are huge inspiration. Loved every step of this cosplay!

[GerryCanCosplay]

[germanspartan]

A certain part of me from my childhood just got beyond excited. Thank you for making the OG mecha g, keep up the great work!

[waynesmiley]

So satisfying seeing the finished suit after watching this series!

[CosmicGaijin]

Now this… this was a masterpiece. It’s been a absolutely wonderful journey to see this from start to finish. Absolutely incredible!
