This is a full-size template (pdf digital download) for you to create a transforming car costume for kids. For a demo video check my Instagram post:

https://www.instagram.com/p/BKwRT2DjlqU/

The costume is designed to fit children with a max height of about 4'. While this is not a hard limit, the real constraint is if the person can fit within the costume in "car mode." Rough dimensions of the costume in "Car Mode" are L:31" W:12" H:13"

What's included:
+ The PDF template file: 3 pages (24"x36"). You'll need to take care of printing. I would recommend Staples' online service for engineering prints (link below).
+ The instructions: 3 pages (8.5"x11")
+ FAQ document to help answer any questions you have... but don't worry, you can always reach out to me, too!

Materials you'll need to complete the costume (not included):
+ Foamboard: 3 sheets 20"x30" (I would recommend the dollar store, or if you have your own, that's fine too)
+ Hot glue: Not too much, but more than a couple sticks
+ Tape: duct, painters (the blue stuff), packaging (the instructions give guidance on which type, and where)
+ Spray glue: kind of optional, but super helpful
+ Paint: up to you (but I might suggest yellow and black)

Tools you'll need to complete the costume (not included):
+ Box Cutter or X-Acto knife
+ Foamboard rabett cutter
+ Straight edge
+ Cutting mat
+ Hot-glue gun

Staples Engineering Prints cost about $4 per page for 24"x36".

The Printing part was fine, I sent it to Staples as a blueprint copy. Cutting it out was also fine, tedious, but do-able. Apparently they no longer sell the tool that was recommended for cutting so it was the assembly that had me stressed. I fought back tears when I couldn't get a couple pieces to line up just right. Listen, my kid LOVES it, it was an extremely cool costume once it was done, but it sits in the closet now. Lets just say I have three littles and after making the first one, I told the other two they would have to just use a cardboard box. Awesome idea, but needs updated blueprinting due to the lack of availability of the cutting tool.

Great template! I took 1 star off just because the template design could be better. Too much separate parts, when almost all of the car could be made from 3-4 parts, by just bending the material.
