  I was actually just jealous of your marshmallow coat… I’m sure all the cool kids had those apart from me!… I wasnt a particularly kool child :-( Yep… my shellsuit was pretty amazing… I wore it to college once as a joke… I got some interested looks! hahaha… probably because it was way too small as I owned it when I was 10.

  What like the staypuff marshmallow man ones?? Shame on you melonhead I thought you had more style! Still you can be forgiven… everyone makes fashion faux pas’… as a child of the 80’s I may have owned a shellsuit… oh happy days.. It was bright purple with green and red on it! Sexy!

    Yeah It’s pretty easy. It’s just like a regular coat, but you make the front part wider so it will over-lap. :)
