Yori's Replica Prop Costume
July 21, 2025 - It's Been Three Years!
Greetings! After a 3-year hiatus on the Yori build, we're back at it just in time to premiere the costume for San Diego Comic-Con 2025! Over the past week, I've been con-crunching like crazy, and my wife Dawn is ready to show everyone at SDCC that YORI LIVES!
We still need to re-create Yori's skull cap and helmet, so for this Con, Dawn will model Yori with her hair down, reminiscent of behind-the-scenes shots of Cindy Morgan.

Enjoy these 50+ build photos from the past week of printing the unitard and the belt - and a custom YORI LIVES belt bag for essentials at SDCC!

July 16, 2022 - Yori's Leg Warmers
Yori's leg warmers are a fun prop to reproduce! I used 9 oz. bull denim and 80/20 cotton/poly batting. Very much like the originals.

Yori's cap graphics are complete! The skull cap construction is 4-panel and is symmetric, so there are essentially two panel graphics. Approximate cut lines shown in green.
