As seen today in Munich. It took me a few seconds to realize they weren’t misshapen smurfs.
In other exciting carnival news, the headliner at Munich’s city center festivities was one Lou Bega. It was basically him, three background dancers, and a copy of his CD being played over the loudspeakers. You know the CD he released 1999? That one. The whole experience was pretty depressing-bad, instead of the kitschy so-bad-its-good-bad we were hoping for. And he opened with Mambo No. 5, so there was really only one direction things could go from there. Frankly, the kids from Tanzschule Wolfgang Steuer (the opening act) were more entertaining.
Ay! What were they supposed to be? I always get a kick out of what you share!
Too bad I didn't get a better photo of them. Can anyone guess what they are?
It really took me a minute. I wondered if I should turn them upside down to help. Then I realized (I think?) that they are (possibly?) the creatures in Avatar.

meh.
Jessica, you're right! I agree, somewhat less than spectacular results. But that's kind of the theme of Munich's carnival – the wacky homemade costumes greatly outnumber the professional ones.
that is toooo funny!!! oh avatar, i never thought you would inspire fasching costumes!!
That's hilarious!
Fasching costumes that you have seen at the streets cannot be compared to those gorgeous works of art that people wear by Fasching Ball or any indoor Fasching celebration.
