Adam Savage Incognito in Judge Dredd Cosplay!

For his final cosplay incognito walk through 2015's San Diego Comic-Con, Adam suits up as a Judge from the 2012 Dredd film. His helmet, tactical vest, Lawgiver pistol, and all the other pieces of the uniform are painstaking reproductions, weathered to look like they've seen some combat. Watch as Judge Savage meets up with a group of other Dredd cosplayers to patrol Comic-Con!

[@tested]

Here's Adam's main Incognito at 2015's Comic-Con: He dressed as a 2001: A Space Odyssey astronaut along with Col. Chris Hadfield! kzbin.info/www/bejne/nqm1oH5rgb-UlaM

[@loud479]

Where's the one day builds for this guys???

[@abefroman8202]

He is the Paw!!

[@Aussyyaks]

Adam I’m making a dredd costume for comic con currently and I was wondering where you got the pieces for this because I’m having a hard time finding the armour

[@LygarZeroX]

Judge Savage. that would be the perfect name of a Judge.

[@Greenhelix5]

Yes... Yes it would haha

[@tamasmarcuis4455]

Kind of a give away though. Incognito?

[@135Zeus]

Not if you're next to a bunch of Judge Dredds

[@diamondwarrior2003]

topped only by "Judy"

[@Omegablue2966]

topped by judge dredd

[@PopRocksV]

Dude's reaction when he finally realizes who he was standing with the whole time: priceless....

[@ericsarchive7718]

Adam:"Thanks for letting me play."

[@Merecir]

We DEMAND a sequel to Dredd 2012! There are sooo many stories from the comics that would make awesome movies. Thumbs up if you agree.

[@vinnydo314]

A sequel or a TV series are in the works last I heard

[@shepherdbook8783]

I second that motion

[@abefroman8202]

Never gonna happen.

[@RudyBleeker]

@@abefroman8202 Would be cool though, especially if Karl Urban would be up for it. He deserves a successful tv show. It's a shame "Almost Human" only lasted one season, I thought it was pretty good.

[@G33KSPALACEdotCOM]

@@RudyBleeker He's already in a successful TV show, The Boys. But I read that a Dredd TV show is in the works by Rebellion, it's already written and they've apparently spent around $100 million building a TV production department, so I think the chances are pretty good.

[@SpacemanXC]

Fuck yeah. The Dredd remake was so fucking good.

[@DeathBringer769]

SpaceManDawn In-fucking-deed.

[@acch1339]

SpaceManDawn Should check out the real movie that Dredd was based on The Raid. I think its a lot better.

[@DWRcreative]

ac ch I believe Dredd was in production before The Raid.

[@REDFORActual]

ac ch No. No. No. Dredd is based on the comic books. It just happens to be similar in concept to The Raid. But yeah, The Raid is awesome.

[@jaybluff281]

ac ch Judge Dredd has been around since the 70's.

[@technoir1119]

Nice to see Dredd getting some appreciation.

[@DeathBringer769]

Tech Noir Hell yes, that movie was fucking awesome.

[@scottmantooth8785]

***** that is a bit sad...too bad another studio could not obtain the rights and allow group funding for the movie preproduction

[@sandragruber4596]

Scott Mantooth Maybe it's better taht way. We have an awsome Dredd movie that will stay the test of time. A sequel could have spoiled it badly... At least thats what I tel myself to get along with it.

[@scottmantooth8785]

possibly...sequels can be tricky and what is thought to be a good idea early on in the production but too expensive to truly visualise but still kept because it is still pretty cool on the surface introduces a cascading probability of mediocre results...a huge budget does not mean you'll make anything back and the way the accounting is done for many of these movies even those movie franchises that have made several billion in collected sales have technically still lost money....still don't get that type of logic

[@scottmantooth8785]

Ghost in the Shell is getting a live action movie so there's hope that the same can be done for Akira...just hope it is done the right way

[@flaggerify]

Impersonating a Judge is an offence, creep. Ten years.

[@ZandorClegane]

Best comment in this video!

[@DestroyerofWorlds0x]

........I judged him....

[@Bartman954]

The sentence is death.....HI-EX!

[@Diemos879]

"not guilty?"

[@yksnimus]

I try to read dredd comics, but excluding jim murray, the art is really a turn off...I wish greg capullo or joe mad would take as an artist on dredd comics

[@NewtsOnAcid]

Dredd is so underrated. Honestly, it's like John Wick and RoboCop had a beautiful child that nobody cares about... I wish it could've been a trilogy.

[@aleflippy1997]

Considering the character is older than both, it's even more infuriating. But oh well... At least the comics is still going strong after 40+ years.

[@deckofcards87]

Indeed. 2000AD will never die.​@@aleflippy1997

[@dotBAIT]

Love how the badge said Savage also lol.

[@xnamkcor]

Maybe he's cosplaying as Randy.

[@nujevad28]

xnamkcor X Undead Randy Savage is way cooler than Judge Dredd.

[@xnamkcor]

nujevad28 Remember that time Dredd fought Hogan?

[@TheKimberleyab]

McClover It's almost a nod to Bill Savage

[@oreubens]

McClover Yes, the badge makes the whole costume very incognito.

[@dsigner]

afraid his beard give him away. yet the badge says SAVAGE lol

[@DapperDanLovesYou]

It's not the beard. Honestly: human being are REALLY good at recognizing facial features. It's why all cars look like faces (and probably why they are designed that way too). Most of us have seen Adam Savage before. Mythbusters is TOO iconic. Even if you don't watch the show, you've at least HEARD of it and KNOW OF Adam and Jamie. As a long time viewer: I recognize Adam by his _CHIN._ It just looks like him. I've seen his face since I was younger than 10. He's been a part of my life! It's like learning the face of a family member. You never really forget it.

[@oO_ox_O]

WaffleLappen It's not his real name, everyone knows it's an alter ego of Jamie Hyneman.

[@Nyerguds]

Yeah, that badge, lol. That's so brilliant.

[@SergeyPRKL]

There is actual Comic character that is Judge Savage.

[@chase_h.01]

Judge Savage... couldn't be a more badass name

[@stoicallyeatingguy2]

@Xare Ous you didnt get it do you?

[@FaceForwardd]

Adam with near 2,000,000 subscribers, a fan base for myth busters that spans the world over, and your background in film. Please feel free to go ahead and pick up that phone and pull some strings to get a sequel to Dredd made.

[@ClassicGOD]

thechosendude Not a remake, completely different and much better movie just based on the same source material. And we NEED a sequel to the 2012 Dredd.

[@TjinDeDjen]

thechosendude It wasn't really a remake; both films are based on the comic book character Judge Dredd, but they're not really related otherwise. Much like the Tim Burton (and others) Batman movie and the Christopher Nolan Batman movies.

[@calumryan6328]

thechosendude You're so wrong that you're wrong.

[@thepumpkingking8339]

TheOneAndOnlyPace A sequel NO a TV Series .. Just don't let FOX make it .. As they would cancel to quick....

[@Swarm509]

The Pumpking King Netflix Original series? They can go as violent as they want.

[@Hostilenemy]

That place was full of Dredds. You could call it... Dreddfull.

[@jaytonhawkins2872]

***** booooooooooo

[@OskoreiMick]

***** YYYYEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!

[@bowjogamingvideos]

***** That pun was Dreddfull... :P Oh no! The puns! They're contagious!

[@OskoreiMick]

bowjogamingvideos yeah keep up the puns and we will have to call in Captain Punishment!

[@bowjogamingvideos]

OskoreiMick I must be making some killer puns then.

[@Grrizz84]

I love that it took a while for that guy to click on to who it was :D

[@JustWasted3HoursHere]

Yep: "Let's see...Your first name is Adam and it says 'Savage' on your badge.".... 3...2...1...

[@MasumiSeike]

Best part of the video

[@tf2whackyengineer]

I love imagining his thought process. "Judge savage, cool, good judge name, wonder if that's his actual name or if he made it up because it's so good." " "What's your name? "Adam." "That Adam guy is great, good costume Judge Savage... Adam... Savage... Adam... Savage... What?!"

[@justinin2731]

just went straight to the comments looking for this... coz he totally trip me up, hahaha

[@DoomBunnyKiller00]

I'm loving these cosplay incognito walk videos. I hope he does them every year ;)

[@Staghound]

DoomBunnyKiller00 He does, check out the previous years, they are all on tested :)

[@narutofan9tf]

I love it when people find out but find it hard to contain their excitement

[@loughkb]

With Adam's usual obsession with detail, I'm completely surprised he didn't just shave the beard off. It'd grow back.

[@AlphariusKerensky]

+Kevin Loughin At his age? It would...eventually

[@cheesealtar]

hes on camera all the time so for continuities sake he probably cant shave it off.

[@jamesanthony8438]

I thought he would've just made a large, square-jawed prosthetic to give him that Patrick Warburton look. That would've been cool :)

[@EVAUnit4A]

My father shaved his mustache _once_ (before I was born, so I never saw this). My mother hasn't let him live it down yet because she couldn't stop laughing at him and he couldn't grow it back fast enough.

[@westingtyler1]

perhaps he kept it as an easter egg so some could identify him.

[@SpecialEDy]

4:42 "Tell him I said Hi". So cool!

[@sneakyzebra]

Great to see the full video, awesome to see footage of of us filming for our music video. Thanks guys

[@DanimalHype]

I am glad at least one of the other Dredds caught on.

[@EmiliaB94]

They all knew, the last guy was just slow on the uptake.

[@stfouri]

Tries to hide his identity with painting his beard. Has Savage written on the badge. :D

[@Kitmaker]

Lol...that one guy had the Stallone frown excucted REALLY well. :D

[@AndrewBlack343]

Maybe that was Stallone; incognito, and he kept getting confused when people asked him if he was Adam.

[@nougan_gamer]

Here in 2023, 11 years later, still hoping for a sequel, or even a TV series from the same makers of this massively under-rated, under-appreciated classic, with Karl Urban & Olivia Thirlby coming back as Judge Dredd & Judge Anderson respectively again! Make it happen! With the success of various IP with darker & mature topics like The Boys, this could be a hit!

[@notadeity]

I love these videos, they make you feel like you're in on the secret. Great job on the Dredd outfits everyone!

[@ZEROBLOOM]

So love how he says... Thanks for letting me play... Just love the emotion behind that

[@LiamTheGreat]

Please make a video about the making of the costume. Or, at the very least, one about how Adam weathered it

[@isegrim1978]

Brilliant idea! I would love to see that!

[@joshinils]

LiamTheGreat he could only talk about the weathering, its already done. so a video of him talking about this costume would be the next best thing

[@Matster196]

LiamTheGreat From the looks of it I think he just bought all the pieces to the costume and assembled it. You can buy literally all the parts to make it and just simply wear it and it's done.

[@Matster196]

Bat Fastard A lot of people make costumes as it is. I'm one of those who buys costumes. I'm doing the same as Adam did for his Judge uniform which I am doing as well.

[@SwithinFeely]

LiamTheGreat chalk maybe and paint and cloth

[@centralshark10]

The "hidden" walks are always my favorite. It's great to see adam just get to blend in and check out comic con for himself, and the crew he met up with all looked to have fantastic Dredd costumes too.

[@TheSnufking]

Haha, that ending! That's awesome!

[@ItsJustaMeNow]

"Judge Savage" sounds like the guy in the team who is the Bad Cop, Heavy Weapons Expert, and Tank.

[@justinbagdon5116]

This movie is so under appreciated

[@Andrewvictory]

Can't wait to see you make that armored batsuit one year for you incognito comic con romp! I saw you eying it up. You're the best Adam. Keep up the great work all of you at the tested team.

[@antigravitytapes]

he took the orange tip off once he got in because all the other judges had black tips lol love this man

[@Scalpelled]

antigravitytapes Ahahahaha! Just saw that too! how cute! Lmao

[@f1matt]

The fan reactions to finding Adam were wonderful to watch!

[@MichaelTheCynic]

when adam was looking at that bat suit did anyone else think it be awesome to see him build that for next year?

[@HelloChief117]

Really awesome costume you got there, Adam. It's always fun to watch people's reactions to these incognito walks.

[@Tracer_Krieg]

Judge Savage... that actually sounds kinda cool!

[@MagnificentErgo]

Sounds like a Dark Judge in the making.

[@drestnar]

Thanks for letting me play..... dude u rock. thanks for letting me watch. u blew their minds man... priceless

[@thesighbored]

Who knew Judges wore striped socks.

[@Hmongboi228]

Next question is "Boxers or briefs?" For the male Judges that is..

[@jacoblucas4259]

"Judge Savage" totally sounds like a legit street judge. Holy crap was this a cool cosplay.

[@MichaelEdmond]

I was waiting for the "are you ready? You look ready." Line...

[@SuperMassiveTV]

Man, they need to make a Dredd sequel already!

[@cygil1]

It's "Watch it, citizen!" Not "sorry" or "excuse me." No wonder Adam was tumbled instantly.

[@hawaiianpunch6534]

That whole group looks so good! I'm gonna watch Dredd now.

[@theroyalseal2466]

Does his chest piece have "Savage" on it?

[@SanMan2k5]

TheRoyalSeal246 No that's a nipple patch...

[@theroyalseal2466]

Still, doesn't that give him away?

[@A.F.M.B.1234]

SanMan2k5 With "Savage" on it? ;P

[@punka92]

TheRoyalSeal246 Noticed that too :P

[@LordDragox412]

TheRoyalSeal246 That's the point...

[@gregsteele806]

"Judge Savage" It's perfect how well that works in the Dredd universe. Cute that he can put his own name on the badge and people won't think twice about it.

[@djraptorx]

Hahaha. Walk in door. Immediately recognized. Gotta love it, you can't hide from the hardcore fans man.

[@littlel3aper]

Adam Savage should walk in a bad cosplay to throw people off the scent.

[@Psychlist1972]

***** See the wig for the matrix twin assassins.

[@littlel3aper]

Pete Brown *Inaccurately bad

[@axelord4ever]

***** Would be nice. Badcosplay™ is really fun.

[@nimbly1693]

Wonderfully underrated movie. I didn't expect to like it so much.

[@Netsuko]

"The beard here, the white, that's very telltale Adam" My brain derped for a moment and I was afraid he was going to shave D:

[@MichaelDBruce]

This is still one of my favourite videos of all time

[@TheRunningComedian]

Judge Savage; sounds like a pretty awesome comic book.

[@judgedeaths4032]

I'm ridiculously jealous of how well his last name fits the theme of the judges.

[@FoodOfTheGods666]

Lol dat frown!

[@vladkostin7557]

FoodOfTheGods i31.photobucket.com/albums/c400/frogger420/frogger420198/new/cat_zpse427b354.jpeg

[@julsmul7164]

5:14

[@panzerfaulst12345]

I wait all year for these.

[@MRJK87.]

Imagine if Stallone and Urban popped in with the pack in their judge dredd outfits in character and arrested them for impersonating judges.

[@SuperDeighton]

That wud be funny as hell!!

[@stevestubestuff5032]

Great video of the new Dredd movie uniform. My Daughter brought me a Dredd helmet for my birthday. This inspired me to get it painted and finished. Thanks Adam.

[@blzahz7633]

2:45 Judge Heisenberg

[@romanblecha1102]

thats

[@wallysaruman]

Dude! People adore you! You are one of the reasons why we have such a tight community! Kudos!

[@MexieMex]

How is it incognito, he's got his name on his chest.

[@marcdinh3131]

Exactly lolol. I was just realized that after rewatch it.

[@nathanielrincon7907]

at the end one of the other Dredd guys actually said " holy crap I just realized who you are!" so apparently it wasn't as noticeable as you'd think.

[@grennysohail]

Probably cause not many people had the chance to really look at the name and look at the person and make the connection before he moved to his next location.

[@davidagcole]

So pleased Dredd gets the respect he deserve in the US. Always been a fan Adam, but even more so now!

[@DeaconTaylor]

haha that was cute. told them your first name, surname is on your badge and still didnt get it. wish i was over there.

[@cleatusmcgurkin3740]

I can't tell which Adam loves more, dressing up in costume or giving his fans an experience of a life time. Ten thumbs up Adam!

[@thenerdyminecrafter]

**Suit Clearly Says ''Savage''** ''Yeah we're gonna help you hide''

[@jamesanthony8438]

That was the first thing I noticed, too. How is he supposed to be sneaking around at that thing if his name is right there?! :)

[@irwinherridge6232]

I Disappear kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5y9hYpop5mpmJY

[@amandanies3174]

I loved the lady in the wheelchair, when she got teary-eyed. And the dude who took long enough to figure out who Adam was.

[@tosiitii930]

he has the most savage last name

[@MrBigCookieCrumble]

Adam only needed to say one word and that woman got it haha! What a cool memory, not only to have met Adam the tinkering genius but also to have busted his incognito in comic-con!!

[@CtrlSaltDelete]

Maybe my favourite costume yet, looks exactly right.

[@semperjase]

Love the reaction of the woman in the wheel chair recognizing Adam. How cool is that?

[@gargoyleex]

Is Adam Savage really that well known in America? I doubt he would be recognised that easily on a German event like, say, the gamescom or the comic con Stuttgart that easily, even without that costume on.^^

[@kimaboe]

gargoyleex Mythbusters is the longest running show on Discovery so he's been on mainstream television for 12 or 13 years now. In addition, he has been coming to SDCC for 10 years, holding at least one large panel and doing this event for the last 5-6 of those. Most con-goers, and especially the cosplayers, know who he is and that he is walking the floor in costume.

[@demianhaki7598]

gargoyleex I'm pretty sure that if he wore his regular hat, he would be easily recognized on similar events in Europe.

[@Ethan_and_Astra]

gargoyleex I cant speak for other European countries but in the UK most people who are into this kind of stuff know who Adam Savage is. He has been on our TV for a long time also and his face is instantly recognisable.

[@wwaxwork]

gargoyleex The sort of people that go to US comic cons are the sort to have watched Mythbusters. Also the regular goers know he's around as he's been going for years.

[@SamTheWai]

gargoyleex He's no Hasselfhoff for sure.

[@IntimateGamer]

finally someone dressed as Dredd! thank you Adam

[@lynxcub7693]

I think Adam should try a female costume. No one would expect that.

[@pervertedguysweare]

+Lynx Cub that wouldn't really be so incognito.

[@kitchenmaiden81]

What if he tries a full suit Samus costume? That would be epic!

[@duckduckduck07]

Drag Savage. Eep.

[@Divionist]

I prefer Adam in a Zero Suit Samus Costume

[@Aspire198]

I don't think that outfit will never be not cool. Like holy crap seeing all the judges together etc was epic.

[@gusbisbal9803]

Is it just me or did anyone else think that before he put the helmet on it was Gordon Freeman.

[@The2econd3vil3xes]

He has so much fun doing these. It's awesome.

[@Drummingwizkid]

After the paint it looked like Paul Giamatti under there.

[@netacid11]

So awesome, Adam. Dredd reboot needs a sequel!!

[@bsgtrekfan88]

...plays dredd OST while watching the last 2 minutes or so. Its a pass!

[@julsmul7164]

_I am the law!_ _Dredd_

[@jamesanthony8438]

Eat recycled food: for a happier, healthier life. Be kind and peaceful to each other. Eat recycled food. Recycled food. It's *good* for the environment, and o-kay for you. - Recycled food robot from "Judge Dredd." It was awesome! (the robot... not the recycled food). I think Adam should go as the Recycled Food robot, sometime. :)

[@Constant14]

Adam is the only judge who follows the US law of having an orange tip on his gun. keeping in character. I love it!

[@PT111111]

That judge Hernandez is pretty slow. lol

[@fartzinwind]

It's the voice that gives him away more easily than anything else.

[@jakeself1911]

I'm pretty sure I went to school with the woman dressed up as Anderson.

[@giggityguy]

I'm happy there was at least one Judge Anderson cosplay with you guys

[@jesserodriguez506]

5:09 isn't that chick from L.A. ink?

[@MarcKloos]

I don't know who she is, but she's smoking hot! 😋👌

[@jayn8392]

all those judge costumes were surprisingly awesome

[@Derrikbulginheadin]

I'd love to walk around in this costume every day. It's one of those great pieces that looks cool and seems like it could be functional at the same time.

[@pjlehtim]

I keep hoping that these incognito videos were a bit longer. It's really fascinating to see people's reactions.

[@JamesDrokk]

possibly my favourite costume Adam has ever worn

[@Daniel2GIGG]

was just at the London comic con yesterday and dredd gets a lot of appreciation there since he's like the only good British comic that isn't for kids

[@beerenmusli8220]

Adams costume is the best looking. The weathered orange tip is just *on point* awesome.

[@paddysnotagoodmechanic9440]

I like how someone recognised you straight away.

[@mrKozmoz]

Damn, I love that version of Dredd, and love the work put into that set.

[@Aaecus]

That Anderson was spot on, great job!

[@chinaman1]

It's so easy to recognize him! when you see a large group of people following a cosplayer, it's him! And the same woman is always with him. Any subscribers of Tested will know!

[@jakubsarnowski9050]

Lmao, that face in 5:16 - this guy definitely feels the Dredd and perfectly imitates his mimic :D

[@DanimalsDioramas]

Anyone else think Adam looks like Grumpy cat when he does the angry Judge Dread face?

[@1325Studios]

You guys seriously need to come out and do this at NYCC! It would be an honor and it would be cool if you guys did a Tested Panel as well!

[@Primus-Palus]

Love that the very first people to see him goes, "Is that you Adam?!" 😂

[@kstutz81]

That outfit is savage! Also he nailed the face!! Awesome

[@SbJuthberg]

I wish I could spend a week with Adam in his workshop making all sorts of crazy gadgets and shennanigans :)

[@tf2whackyengineer]

I just love Judge Hernandez. *Reads patch for Judge Savage* "What's your name?" "Adam." "Adam, alright." *Poses with Adam and other judges, goes about his business.* . o O (Wait... Savage... Adam... Adam Savage? That sounds familiar... The goatee...) *Light bulb*
