So anyone who goes to F7 knows that I got to go to Dragoncon in Atlanta this past weekend. What I didn't expect was to run into the guy who made that orgasmic Portalgun prop from way back earlier in the year, and his finance toting it around in her excellent Aperture test subject costume.

Sadly I only got a couple of photos of it because I was too busy nerding out over props with Volpin (the creator), and I was too much of a wimp to ask to hold it myself. Anyway, here's the couple of photos I took of it.

A-one
A-two

Volpin also wore his Guy Manuel of Daft Punk helmet/costume and probably the most elite Big Daddy from Bioshock costume I've ever seen. Sadly I missed that though, but there's plenty of photos and Youtubes of the spinning drill over on his blog.

His blog: Volpin Props
