Peter (voiced in Japanese by Yūki Tai and in English by Vic Mignogna) is one of the secondary main characters in the Book of Circus arc in the anime/manga Kuroshitsuji/Black Butler.

He is one of the first-string members in Noah’s Arc Circus and does the flying trapeze act with Wendy. Like Wendy, he looks extremely young, but is very stunted in his growth and is much older than he appears. Unlike Wendy, he very much does not act his supposed age, and is prone to being irritable and rude, even violent at times. Wendy and Jumbo appear to be two of the people he cares the most about, being almost inseparable from Wendy and treating Jumbo with respect.

He has short, overly-fluffy blonde hair topped with a small green off-center hat, and he has light blue eyes, accented by green diamonds on the opposite side of Wendy’s pink ones. His circus outfit consists of a double-ruffled high white collar, a puff sleeve white button up short-sleeved shirt, a lime green vest, dark green puff bloomer-style shorts with yellow star detailing on them, and open toe white tights.

Illumi Zoldyck (voiced in Japanese by Masaya Matsukaze and in English by Chris Hackney) is one of the main antagonists in the anime/manga HunterxHunter.

He is the oldest of the Zoldyck siblings and is one of the more threatening ones purely from action. Illumi specializes in appearance-shifting and controlling people’s actions through the pins that he wears imbedded into his shirt.

As with most of his siblings, Illumi has black hair, worn very long and slicked back (sometimes down slightly on the sides), and his eyes are very overwhelmingly full, and pure black. He has a few different outfit through the series, but this one is one of the main ones we usually see. It’s a multi-toned green and yellow shirt and pants set, with off-yellow socks, and shoes that match the color of the pants. His typical weapons, the pins, are imbedded all over the top and shoes for usage.

Art the Clown is the main antagonist from the Terrifier franchise. Portrayed by David Howard Thornton, Art is a serial killer who takes the appearance of a demented clown. Don’t let his silence fool you – his violent, brutal murders speak for themselves. Let’s just say the two movies aren’t for the faint of heart.

Frank (played by Murray Bartlett) is a survivor of the fungi outbreak in HBO’s video game adaptation The Last of Us.  Frank is on his way to Boston from Baltimore when he lands in a trap laid by Bill, who is initially reticent to let Frank stay on his property.  Soon enough, though, Bill demonstrates that he’s an excellent chef, and the two bond over their love of Linda Rondstadt.  It’s not long until they fall in love and spend the rest of their lives together in Bill’s fortified neighborhood.  When Frank first appears, he is dirty and disheveled from his travels.  He emerges from the trap wearing a ribbed crewneck sweater.  After a shower, he changes into one of Bill’s plaid shirts.  He continues to wear plaid as he ages, and when the two marry at the piano that first brought them together, Frank wears a black blazer over a white shirt.

Bill (played by Nick Offerman) is a survivalist in the apocalyptic series The Last of Us on HBO.  Bill evades the military when they come to round up survivors and outfits his house and neighborhood to be optimally secure.  When Frank lands himself in one of his traps, Bill’s solitude is brought to an end, and the two fall in love and share a life together for many years.  Bill’s look varies throughout the episode because it spans so many years.  When he first meets Frank, he’s wearing a grey sweatshirt and jeans, is outfitted with plenty of weaponry, and has long brown hair and a full beard.  As he ages, his hair goes grey and he wears it a little shorter, but he never quite ditches his lumberjack-inspired fashion choices, opting for sturdy clothes and plenty of plaid.  When he and Frank marry, he wears a tweed blazer.

Recep İvedik (played by Şahan Gökbakar) is the titular character of the 2008 Turkish comedy film and its many sequels.  At the beginning of the series, Recep takes up residence in a luxury hotel after finding the owner’s wallet and attempts to win back his childhood love.  Recep’s most prominent feature is his dark unibrow, so don’t skip out on that aspect of your costume.  You might not be able to find an exact match for his brightly-colored shirt, but any bold orange striped button-down can work.

Pocoyo is the main character in the children’s show of the same name. Episodes center around his adventures and fun times with his friends. As an innocent child, he doesn’t understand much, but he learns something new every day. Pocoyo means “little me” in Spanish. Paint the zipper of the half-zip with gold paint to match his outfit.

Custard (voiced by Jordan Francis) is a main character in the Canadian cartoon series The Save-Ums!  Custard is four years old and has a very active imagination.  To recreate this cartoon character’s look, you’ll primarily require a red facemask and purple hooded bodysuit.  You can add some additional details if you’re up for it, including purple cat ears and the design on his belly.  To do so, you can cut and glue felt pieces in place and then use purple fabric paint to add the exclamation point.
