Everyone take down your Halloween Instagrams. This kid just put us all to shame.

While we were all putting together our last-minute Halloween costumes, this kid and his unbelievably talented, costume-making mom were putting together a realistic Rocket Raccoon costume from Guardians of the Galaxy that could fool the movie's special effects team.

The picture was originally posted on Facebook by the maker herself, Christina Borchardt. According to the comments, Borchardt made the entire thing from scratch.

Apparently Borchardt didn't get to complete her masterpiece (the lower leather isn't "distressed") but her son, Chase, didn't seem to mind. Anyone would be dying to go trick-or-treating in that suit.
