Groot Costume <br>Accessories <br>Awaken your inner Guardian of the Galaxy with our out-of-this-world collection of Marvel costume pieces. We have outfits for everyone from Star Lord, the mighty Gamora, funny Rocket Raccoon and the adorable Groot. <br> <br>The lovable CG character first appeared in Marvel Comics\ Tales to Astonish in 1960 as an extraterrestrial plant-like creature who can only say the repeated phrase, \I am Groot.\ Despite his limited vocabulary, the Guardians of the Galaxy understand him and have formed a close bond with him. <br> <br>Groot is the last of his species, having been captured by Ronan the Accuser and brought back to Earth to be destroyed in Annihilation: Conquest. He later teamed up with Star Lord and Rocket Raccoon as bounty hunters, mercenaries and intergalactic pirates. <br> <br>To recreate Groot\s distinctive appearance, look for a full body suit that resembles tree bark or a mask with a branch-like design. You can also add detail to your costume with textured fabric, foam and even real branches and leaves attached to your clothes or a bodysuit.
