THE WOW MOMENT

A cosplayer uploads a photo of their failed foam armor that ripped at the convention. Within 48 hours, they receive a custom polymer blend in the mail that's flexible, paintable, costs $12 to make, and when they post the final costume video — it goes viral because the armor looks literally IDENTICAL to the game character.
