In the Netflix drama Squid Game, contestants like Seong Gi-Hun and Kang Sae-Byeok compete in children’s games, surrounded by armed guards and under the threat of death. The first game they play is red light, green light, opposite Mugunghwa Girl, named for the Korean version of the children’s game. A large vintage animatronic girl with motion detector eyes, creepy would be an understatement.

Powerline (voiced by Tevin Campbell) is the larger-than-life musician idolized by Max Goof in Disney’s A Goofy Movie.  In a bid to impress his crush Roxanne, Max tells his classmates that he and his father will be performing on stage with Powerline at an upcoming concert.  The ruse derails the father-son road trip Goofy actually has planned, culminating in a wild and emotional ride for them both.  Powerline’s character and performance style were influenced by some of the biggest rock stars of the age including Michael Jackson and Prince.  To recreate his look, you’ll need a yellow jumpsuit and black boots.  A fine-tipped fabric paint applicator can help you add the nuclear-looking design on the front of his uniform.  Most importantly, don’t forget to belt out I 2 I while busting a move.
