Hankering for another Star Wars-related Adam Incognito? Check out his Knights of Ren walk at Silicon Valley Comic Con: ua-cam.com/video/oJ2Bs3qieJw/v-deo.html
it's ridiculous how many layers that outfit has, all for it to look like a glob of blackness. And now i'm picturing Kylo Ren having Stormtroopers assist him in getting dressed and throwing a tantrum over it
I can't even imagine... 1. getting a photo of a perfect Kylo Ren on a comic con 2. finding out later that was Adam Savage I would get multiple heart attack...
Ibs well I never did myself but as far As similar attire my mom taught me the different ways you can take a bed sheet and form a 4 different ways of dressing. One of them came Cole's yo a Jedi dress code but not really
Senpai guys, guys. She put a check mark next to her name , normal people just have a dot, verified just have a check mark, since she has both that is how I concluded this.
Someone needs to do a mod of that helmet and get some speakers and a microphone in there to make his voice louder and sound the same as kylo's. Now THAT would be a crazy costume
When he said the costume got him into character it's because getting the thing on pissed him off a lot, By the time the director said action he was fully pissed and ready to go full Kylo-Ren on everybody!...xD
It is truly fascinating how many layers go into that costume!! I also find it interesting how much of that layering isn't actually seen! Thank you for sharing this with us!
I agree that it feels a bit incomplete, but only cause he should've had a holstered lightsaber. I think if he had a lightsaber with the blade part that lights up (like the other one had) it would've had a negative effect on what is otherwise an awesome costume.
I also means that you don't suddenly expose a part of the outfit that is not supposed to be seen. The bear costume had hole in its armpits, for example. If you layer credible pieces of clothing over each other, you don't have to hide 'unfinished' spots.
Plus, the layers help to bulk him up. You can see how important that is when you compare him to the other Kylo at 5:58. He looks very skinny. Still, not a bad costume!
Funny thing is anovos don't have this costume and don't and won't be selling it, I just tried to purchase one and got told they do not have them! After asking why the live chat with there customer service went dead! Almost as if they didn't have an answer after I asked why they advitised it but won't have it for purchase at all! That's false advising and I'm certain there are laws against that.
James Edwards I don’t like their business practices but I don’t hate them either. They do business based on units that are limited per season of the year. For example they will sell 150 units before selling out and preparing to sell some next season.
Mason S yeah because the other guy’s costume was really good, and it would stand out as a great costume on its own, but Adam’s made it look like something from Party City
I love how Adam dresses up in all these accurate costumes from multiple different series, it really does add a level of realism not often seen in the cosplay community and generally just makes everyone's day. Well done.
Usually with costumes it isn't the weight that is an issue but rather how the costume insulates the body and restricts movement. These issues can range from bad (potentially threatening heat stroke and making it impossible physically impossible for an actor to perform) to beneficial (not needing coats when having to shoot in the cold and providing mannerisms for the character). Luckily for Driver, most of his scenes stayed clear of potential heat stroke and his character lent itself to more mannered movement.
the film costume was made in 4x4 stitching fabric, not as heavy as the stamped nylon hybrid on Savage's costume, but significantly most expensive, so I understand why he wouldn't use that and the pants and underjacket were made to be a tad lighter

Gh0st 0ne did your UA-cam name used to be Kylo Ren? Because you’ve posted multiple comments as if you were Kylo Ren and it doesn’t make much sense since your name is in fact “Gh0st 0ne”
Yes ! I love that costume it's drives me crazy when people say it look like a samurai costume. Even his saber looks like a knights sword. I love how the designer gave him that Star Wars look with such a medieval feel and elegance.
Id be quite gutted if I met you incognito but didnt get the chance to thank the real adam savage for being a total legend while I was growing up, you taught us 10 time more relevant stuff than school could ever teach us
"Found in about 4 mins." Adam you need to lower your game. All they do is see your workmanship in the costume and they figure it's got to be you. You need to start wearing costumes made out of rough cardboard with sloppy finish, then no one will figure you out on the floor.
It's now 2023. A full seven years after this $2000 USD officially licensed costume went on sale, as advertised by Tested. Anovos has not delivered a single one.
+Fatty Warrior Oh. sorry, mate. I gotchu. I think you miscommunicated when I said please. XD I was more replying to his comment about bdsm? as in please, I want bdsm. it probably notified you, and made it look like I was saying please stfu. XD sorry about that
@5:59. When you show up with a $300 cosplay thinking you’re gonna kill it, but someone shows up with a $3000 cosplay that just crushed your hopes and dreams!
+JonO387 Presumably you are not from California... we're not used to that. The 85 is OK, but only at 10% or so humidity. That's "normal" for us in summer time. I find most of the US on the other side of the Rockys to be stifling, like I'm in the front row of a rock concert, jammed up against the stage by a huge crowd pressing forward behind me and unable to breath. Florida was about the most horrible place I've ever been, respiration-wise. Even Hawaii was easier to deal with, but not by much...
+Jacob Sailer thank you for telling this whack twat what it feels like. Back on star killer base these layers feel great. Just ask your mom what layers feel like. She's got so many rolls that she has the same rib design all over her body that my sleeves do.
Even though Adam is a famous television personality, does speeches and cosplays often, he still exudes an "socially awkward nerd" kind of vibe, heheh, I think I love him more because of that. He really is a nerd at heart.
Could be an unpopular opinion, but I get much more satisfaction watching cosplay videos from people who aren't oversaturated with sponsorships and other corporate sludge.
@@deuscheems black series sabers are cheap toys with an okay aesthetic hilts. Anyone who is serious about collecting/cosplaying should go for actual custom machined metal hilts and neopixel/tri-cree blades.
This was an amazing costume though and I can't wait until I get my own place and start making my own stuff and start my own projects. Watching you channel with tested is my favorite part of my day, and you give me so many ideas. Thank you!
I'm not into cosplay at all but I enjoy these vids mostly because Adam seems like such an approachable and down to earth guy and his interaction with fans especially kids is fantastic.
She's also Norm's fiancee. So hopefully she's around for a while. If you could identify her the last two years at ComicCon, you could have found Adam pretty easily
I don't understand why Adam has so many intricately detailed layers on the torso when it all ends up being covered up? If you don't see it then what's the point?
I was thinking the same thing a lot of layers you never see, BUT it makes the costume "fill out better" since this is a movie prop replica they copy everything even the what might seem unnecessary bits. you could probably have a custom outfit made that has only 1 part the outside you see w some sort of filler mats sewn into the inside and get the same look.
Like Adam said, I am guessing it's a lot about wearing something that actually matches what the character is wearing in the movie and having the same restraints put on you because of it. For a lot of cosplayers trying to stay as authentic to the actual props as possible is important.
After re-watching, that's not true. The bottom layer is for the arm folds He puts the neck folds on above that Then overlays it with a jacket for the body folds Then puts on a sleeveless fleece Then puts on the "gi" Then puts on the gloves Then puts on the Helmet + final neck wrap Each layer does serve a purpose. If you ever wanted to portray Kylo having some down time (like when he's in his chambers), you could remove some of the layers for something more minimalistic without sacrificing "the look" Edit: the balaclava is the only thing that doesn't "fit"
All the layers are worn in the film at some point. The one he walks around in during the con is the throughout most of the movie. The one underneath that with all the pleats is when he's talking to Vader's helmet & the one textured one under that is at the end on Starkiller Base :) But yes, mainly for authenticity. I don't wear the Starkiller layer when I go to events because it's insanely hot already.
Well for the actual costume, Kylo Ren's base is on an ice planet so you gotta keep layered to stay warm. But in Adam's case, he definitely could've lightened the load a little
jazzblaster It’s attention to detail. If you were to enter a costume competition, you would get extra points if you added more detail, even if it was hidden, than just doing the costume’s “surface”
It's a nice expensive costume... but it's not movie accurate.. it's close.. Im a 501st Legion member, who has an approved Kylo Ren costume. and the Anovos costume would need quite a few mods done to get approved.. it's nice though.. and my approved costume ran about $1000 total.

My favorite character is Kylo Ren
One day I hope to have enough spare money to get a costume of this caliber, for now battlefront 2 will have to do
yo
Well I always thought of Kylo-Ren as the "Rainman" of the evil SITH , , , , his communication always seems unusually distracted , , , 🔥👽🔥
imagine walking around and suddenly seeing kylo-ren and not knowing that's it's the guy you watched bust myths 10 years ago.
Wait I just noticed it now, are you serious? Man I loved mythbusters as a child
@@johnsmantles6619 yep, Adam Savage. The goofy guy from Mythbusters.
Nathan Walsh, what ever happened to his companion, the walrus looking guy
@@notmyrodrick9762 He cheated on him with another man

Yeah, 2-3 of the layers seem completely unnecessary.
@@AvgJoeCrowe seems like it's for the actor to look tougher and bigger
I can’t unsee that now
You just posted cringe. DELETE!
@Bryan Doucette I liked it now it's 421. I love starting chaos.
I can't even imagine...
1. getting a photo of a perfect Kylo Ren on a comic con
2. finding out later that was Adam Savage
I would get multiple heart attack...

@@KayJayCrazy ye they have a couple layers too.
😂😂😂
Poor Kylo Ren when going to the bathroom... This explains the bad mood. X-D
Verified with 590 subs?
Senpai guys, guys. She put a check mark next to her name , normal people just have a dot, verified just have a check mark, since she has both that is how I concluded this.
Or she really famous idk
He's pretty lucky compared to vader
Lol
I love it when Adam stops and does pics for kids.
Agreed
Exactly what I was going to put! Love it!
Yup.. Excellent
gets paid to* do pics for kids
+Derrick Mahlum Who is paying Adam to take pics with little kids?
I read Adam Driver instead of Adam Savage. 😂
ThatGamerGuyOscar ikr
SAMMME
Same
ThatGamerGuyOscar me too
SAAAME!!!
So many layers...No wonder Adam Driver's always losing his temper.
Mad Hatter XD so true tho
"IT'S BEEN 6 WEEKS!! What's so difficult about finding me a simple cardigan and chinos for my days off? Huh?"
When I scrolled past this I thought it said Adam DRIVER as....
That would have been so funny
Zack Boone i did too
Zack Boone same lol
Me 2 I’m still waiting for that to happen
Yeah me too
YEEEEEEEEESS that would've been super rad.
cosplayer pro-tip: sew inside pockets you can put cold packs in
Pro-tips with Laura!
Laura Bourne I’ll keep that in mind..
My Batsuits going to feel so much better now lol thank you
alllright! i made a cameo at 6:38!
Playing it cool at first so as not to give away Adam incognito. And then mug for the camera in passing, hilarious!
Lol that was great!
Love you Frank. :b
Way to stay ambiguous and not blow his cover! Frank, you're a consummate professional.
do you realize that your costume has become a meme, xD it does look good though
Someone needs to do a mod of that helmet and get some speakers and a microphone in there to make his voice louder and sound the same as kylo's. Now THAT would be a crazy costume
501st people sometimes get a sound box, with a trigger that lets them play voice clips.
They also put fans in their helmets to help not die.
Check out MiCom soundrig
Would so love a Mandalorian helmet that did that
That's a surprisingly friendly Kylo. Man, I would support him and the Empire any day.
He's with the First Order ;)
Daan Wilmer Shhh, you're exploiting my mistake. :P
Shhh, you're exploiting his mistake
I feel like people said the same thing about hitter
Come to the Dark Side... We have cookies
Kylo Ren: Have a good one
What a fun place conventions are
When he said the costume got him into character it's because getting the thing on pissed him off a lot, By the time the director said action he was fully pissed and ready to go full Kylo-Ren on everybody!...xD
Kylo Ren is of course known for his trademark suspenders
What are you talking about?
kylo ismost known for his
shoes
I think below all the clothing he wears a string bikini like Borat. A black one. With the drawing of Vader's helmet in the crotch. kinky.
+EthalaRide if it works for a blaster shot, it works for his pants
Yes. Yes I am
Kalo Rei
Haha Adam is always so kind to everyone during these. I'm also interested if Frank knew that it was Adam close to the end of the video.
I would imagine he recognised the crew following him around.
If this channel used clickbait titles they would have called it "I GOT NAKED IN THE MIDDLE OF COMIC-CON!!"
Can use it if he goes as Dr Manhattan some year.
(GONE SEXUAL)
or ADAM SAVAGE GETS NUDE ON COMIC-CON FLOOR!
this is not casey neystat
"But you won't believe what happens next!"
That hood piece is what really completed the look of the costume
adam without the helmet looks more like a game of thrones character...
Jack Pyke he looks like hes apart of the nights watch
He looks like a mortal kombat character
And now his watch is ended.
Truth.
It is truly fascinating how many layers go into that costume!! I also find it interesting how much of that layering isn't actually seen! Thank you for sharing this with us!
No lightsaber feels a bit incomplete... but the costume (this really is a costume, rather then cosplay!) is amazing!
I always thought cosplay was just more expensive and accurate costuming.
Despite this looking better, yeah, the one he posed with that wasn't a pro replica costume wins for just that reason.
I agree that it feels a bit incomplete, but only cause he should've had a holstered lightsaber. I think if he had a lightsaber with the blade part that lights up (like the other one had) it would've had a negative effect on what is otherwise an awesome costume.
+Torpington Agreed. The plastic lightsaber makes the costume seem less authentic, not more.
really depends on how good it's made. If it was just dangling on the side it could've looked awesome.
Wow most of that costume is covered by other parts of itself.
Yeah, I thought that was odd, but as Adam said, I guess the layers of the costume give the actor a certain feel to the character.
I also means that you don't suddenly expose a part of the outfit that is not supposed to be seen. The bear costume had hole in its armpits, for example. If you layer credible pieces of clothing over each other, you don't have to hide 'unfinished' spots.
Plus, the layers help to bulk him up. You can see how important that is when you compare him to the other Kylo at 5:58. He looks very skinny. Still, not a bad costume!
Fatherbrain1 That element is probably just as important for Adam Driver. :D
Yea, that's dedication.
That costume is sooo fucking cool
It better be, it costs over $3000
Funny thing is anovos don't have this costume and don't and won't be selling it, I just tried to purchase one and got told they do not have them!

Seeing adams costume next to the other kylo ren really made me realize how fantastic his was

I love how Adam dresses up in all these accurate costumes from multiple different series, it really does add a level of realism not often seen in the cosplay community and generally just makes everyone's day. Well done.
Anyone could wear this costume and look hot .... not as hot as Adam driver though xx
Oh a tall muscular army man is hard to find
am i the only one bothered by the fact that he didn't put the hood up
nope. i really wanted the hood up. looks weird with it down.
i like it when the hoods down and its just his helmet
Yessssss! He looks so mysterious and evil with the hood up. Like a Sith Ronda Rousey
no hood is definitely my preferred look
a la Kylo Ren’s last Jedi outfit
Yeah
He looks like an evil Obi-Wan Kenobi without the helmet on.
The spin-off we need
That's an incredible costume, but $3100 is a lot.
GODOFGUITAR2112 The Material Insulation is what makes so expensive.
I get it for free.
sweetheart that's almost nothing XD
I saw many Costumes they there over 5000$ and it wasn't a Fursuit either
Lol you can just buy these things separately for under $200
Yeah you could afford an AK and two flashes
Adam Driver the actor in the movie was a US Marine I imagine after all the gear they have to carry the costume would have seemed light in comparison.

I prefer Kylo with the hood on.
Thanks, i like myself with the hood more too.
i like potatoes and beans while hood on
@@goofyahhuncleproductions42069 😂😂😂😂😂
Eh
Me looks even more intimidating
The BEST kylo ren cosplay i have seen
Yes, i thought they were filming me.
Kylo Ren I though that too
Gh0st 0ne did your UA-cam name used to be Kylo Ren? Because you’ve posted multiple comments as if you were Kylo Ren and it doesn’t make much sense since your name is in fact “Gh0st 0ne”
I wonder: Do Comic-Con cosplayers get asked a lot if they're Adam Savage?
Oh yeah. I hadn't thought of that.
or if they got the same costume
well, they might if they've got a very detailed and accurate costume.
They'd have to have a camera crew
That would be a real compliment on your costuming.
@Michael Slenderman ... that covers their face and most of their body
Why does Norm always stand like he is an evil villain about tell us his evil plan. 0:10
Shhhh...
yeeesss, yeeees hahahah pppeeeerrrfeect. Thats what i imagine is in Norms head
It's body language for "exited but repressing it" or "trying to look like I'm holding back my exitement"
that's how I interpret it at least.
im dying right now ahahaha
Huh. I always saw it as weaselly, personally, like he's waiting for the opportune moment to sell people something.
You can clearly see the middle ages garments inspiration in Kylo Ren suit.
Yep, he's definitely got a "black knight" vibe to him.
ikr
Tunic, and a surcoat over that, then a sword belt around the torso and a helmet. Knight inspiration fo dayz.
Glad I wasn't the only one to think this.
Yes ! I love that costume it's drives me crazy when people say it look like a samurai costume. Even his saber looks like a knights sword. I love how the designer gave him that Star Wars look with such a medieval feel and elegance.
A buddy of mine saw Adam Savage take his shirt off in the shower and said that he had an 8 pack. That Adam Savage was shredded.

Adam you need to lower your game. All they do is see your workmanship in the costume and they figure it's got to be you. You need to start wearing costumes made out of rough cardboard with sloppy finish, then no one will figure you out on the floor.
but he'll make a video and use the most realistic cardboard there is and everybody will know!
To be fair; he didn't make this, a high quality prop shop did.
In this instance the costume is by Anovos, but yes, you're right nonetheless :P
Well.. he can always do Jamie Hyneman incognito..
Awww I wanted to see Adam run into a vader cosplayer... GRANDFATHER!
7:54 ''I took pictures with a lot of startrek people'' lmao
Imagine knowing Adam as a friend! That would be phenomenal.
It's now 2023. A full seven years after this $2000 USD officially licensed costume went on sale, as advertised by Tested. Anovos has not delivered a single one.
And they never will, they have gone bust and is now taken over by Dueno Anovo, which are still filling in backorders and still owe money
What a Great costume, but now I need to rewatch the film. ;-)

Adam making all those kids happy... this is beautiful. ❤️
I absolutely love tested, but what I love even more is watching how nervous and twitchy Norm always seems to be
Coolness, but for a $3000 get up, Adam didn't bother to use the hood... :(
You don't need to spend $3k on a Kylo costume if you do a few mods yourself.
Haha, that moment at 5:58, Kylo sizing himself up. :D
5:02 what was that sound that sounds like when you hit spider in minecraft
Sounded like a creeper got killed lol
-So Adam, how do you stay thin?
- the secret is walking in amazing personalized and detailed portable saunas

I get so jealous of Adam. He gets to wear all the best costumes
I was at that Comic Con, and I can absolutely guarantee how f*cking hot it was outside. 😓
6:13 Solair in the back from dark souls. That lit me up, get it.
He probably got bothered more in that suit then he would have without it. :)
i'm so happy to find this channel, i remember watching adam on mythbusters so this is just cool to me
Could be an unpopular opinion, but I get much more satisfaction watching cosplay videos from people who aren't oversaturated with sponsorships and other corporate sludge.
Where's the lightsaber?

I think that's why his lightsaber is the way it is..almost like a sword from medieval times,like the knights Templar.
Jedi Jade if only.
At 5:02 you can clearly hear a creeper noise.
This was an amazing costume though and I can't wait until I get my own place and start making my own stuff and start my own projects. Watching you channel with tested is my favorite part of my day, and you give me so many ideas. Thank you!
It's great that you get to have way more fun incognito than you ever would as Adam Savage.
Nice video thanks
5:40 I was really expecting something to happen
Best Kylo Ren costume I've ever seen so far!!
Brandon Lopez I know right, it's seamless
I'm not into cosplay at all but I enjoy these vids mostly because Adam seems like such an approachable and down to earth guy and his interaction with fans especially kids is fantastic.
Who's the girl in the multi-color dress?? Never seen her before :D
I have but I dont know where...
Aki San Good work Aki San
Danica Johnson, she was in other videos before, such as "Tested in 2015: Danica Johnson's Favorite Things". She's a production designer.
She appears to be Adam's "Zipper Mistress" for when he doesn't feel like zipping himself up.
She's also Norm's fiancee. So hopefully she's around for a while.
If you could identify her the last two years at ComicCon, you could have found Adam pretty easily
I don't understand why Adam has so many intricately detailed layers on the torso when it all ends up being covered up? If you don't see it then what's the point?
Adam's response might be this: 7:36
I'm also sure that he would take authenticity over comfort any day.
Exactly. That furry thing wasn't even needed. Plus it makes him look bulky
The several thousand dollars of layering add needed bulk that can be seen to be lacking in the fan-made one he poses with.
Its what seperates a movie outfit from a costume you buy in a bag for $10 at Walmart.
I was thinking the same thing a lot of layers you never see, BUT it makes the costume "fill out better" since this is a movie prop replica they copy everything even the what might seem unnecessary bits. you could probably have a custom outfit made that has only 1 part the outside you see w some sort of filler mats sewn into the inside and get the same look.
Adam Savage is awesome
I love how celebrities are so inspiring
The fact that this outfit looks better than the official one at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge says a lot about Galaxy’s Edge and a lot about Adam Savage
Theres so many underlayers you dont even see! i'm sure you could lighten this costume up.
you need to suffer for the dark side! thats why! :D
The layers below are not seen so why wear them.
authenticity
Like Adam said, I am guessing it's a lot about wearing something that actually matches what the character is wearing in the movie and having the same restraints put on you because of it. For a lot of cosplayers trying to stay as authentic to the actual props as possible is important.
Layering, the form would not be the same without them.
After re-watching, that's not true.
The bottom layer is for the arm folds
He puts the neck folds on above that
Then overlays it with a jacket for the body folds
Then puts on a sleeveless fleece
Then puts on the "gi"
Then puts on the gloves
Then puts on the Helmet + final neck wrap
Each layer does serve a purpose.
If you ever wanted to portray Kylo having some down time (like when he's in his chambers), you could remove some of the layers for something more minimalistic without sacrificing "the look"
Edit: the balaclava is the only thing that doesn't "fit"
All the layers are worn in the film at some point. The one he walks around in during the con is the throughout most of the movie. The one underneath that with all the pleats is when he's talking to Vader's helmet & the one textured one under that is at the end on Starkiller Base :)
But yes, mainly for authenticity. I don't wear the Starkiller layer when I go to events because it's insanely hot already.
6:53 He'd fit right in at a GoT convention
4+ years after this video, and Anovos still hasn't shipped a single Kylo Ren costume to anyone who ordered this...
So instead of Where's Waldo, we get Who is Adam? I LOVE IT!
That is a beautiful outfit
For the first few minutes he actually looks somewhat like Jon Snow.
5:00 "She looks adorable"
(Kicks him in the balls) 😂😂😂
5:58 - You vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about
Wow he dressed up as my favorite Disney princess! :D
85 degrees at 60% isn't nothing, here in Arkansas we got 101 with almost 50% humidity
ewwwwww, I would stay indoors all day!
in milwaukee we been at 90 %95 humidity its like im in florida ir sumthin
Yeah, you just walk out the door here and you're instantly swearing
I think you meant sweating, but that works too.
Kansas is about 108 right now.. 75% humidity. This place is a hell hole come summer time.
why are all those layers necessary if they're just being covered up?
I think it's supposed to help bulk up certain areas and help you feel more like the character. That's just my opinion though.
also there are scenes when he is in different layers.
Well for the actual costume, Kylo Ren's base is on an ice planet so you gotta keep layered to stay warm. But in Adam's case, he definitely could've lightened the load a little
jazzblaster It’s attention to detail. If you were to enter a costume competition, you would get extra points if you added more detail, even if it was hidden, than just doing the costume’s “surface”
It's a nice expensive costume... but it's not movie accurate.. it's close.. Im a 501st Legion member, who has an approved Kylo Ren costume. and the Anovos costume would need quite a few mods done to get approved.. it's nice though.. and my approved costume ran about $1000 total.
5:58 This is getting out of hand! Now there are two of them!
ok i didnt even know until i saw this video
i was there and got my picture with kylo ren and now i realize it was adam, im so happy now
