OK, Thor's confirmed as a stingray, Hector has agreed to go for a triceratops because he actually wants people to know which on he is, and we got the material for Hebe's head scarf from the 50c room at the thrift shop today.
best costume news, though, is not for halloween... Hebe's book project this month was mythology, and the end task to pick a character, dress like them and be able to tell everone else who they are and waht their story is. Of course she chose Hebe (Greek Goddess of youth, Cupbearer to the Gods...)
... we went to a resale store and got two full length underskirts for $1 each, cut the waistband plus an inch or so off one, then cropped arm holes and neck holes in the remainder to make it vest tunic shaped. tied the shoulder straps together, used the cut off waitband to cinch it on on the bra-line, put the other skirt underneath... bingo. it's awesome, took 5 minutes, will take pics, am annoyed she won't wear it for Halloween too
