Cartoon characters get all the cool abilities. They can bounce back from [[Amusing Injuries]], bounce off walls like rubber, and pull random stuff out of [[Hammerspace]]. Then there's this. Cartoon characters seem to carry alternate outfits in Hammerspace. But, they rarely have to reach into their hyperspace pouch to change clothes. They can run offscreen and return with an entirely different wardrobe on, they can spin in place to change clothes, or something can pass in front of them to reveal their changed outfits.
[[Sister Trope]] to [[Changing Clothes Is a Free Action]], which generally involves changing into a particular costume. Please put examples of super hero costume changes on that page. '''Hyperspace Wardrobe''' should contain examples of non-heroic costume changes. Compare [[Convenient Color Change]], where no clothes are changed, but their color does.
Line 17:
* ''[[Undercover Brother]]''. The title character somehow does a costume change while ''jumping through a window''. Watch it [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oj03IT2805Y here].
* Maggie in ''[[The Great Race]].'' The only other way she could have that many outfits while running a globe-spanning auto race is if she has a wardrobe truck following her just offscreen.
* In [[Pee
* We see the sidekicks being taught how to do this in [[Sky High]]
== [[Live Action TV]] ==
* In the opening credits of ''[[Sabrina the Teenage Witch]]'', Sabrina would pose in front of a mirror and zap herself into different wardrobes. Of course, this is justified in that it's [[A Wizard Did It|done with magic]].
* [[The Blues Brothers]] Band do a super-fast costume change for Cab Calloway to lead them in Minne the Moocher. They change back in the blink of a camera cut afterwards.
* Both [[Superman]] in ''[[Lois and Clark]]'' and Wonder Woman in ''[[Wonder Woman]]'' change clothes by spinning. In both cases (except for the pilot episode of ''Wonder Woman,'' where she emerges from the spin with her street clothes over her arm) the clothes they're wearing simply vanish.
Line 29:
== [[Video Games]] ==
* Characters in ''[[Animal Crossing]]'' can change clothes with a backflip.
* ''[[The Sims]]'' do the spin in place thing when they change clothes.
* The alchemist Zandria apparently has a spell for this in ''Kyrandia 2''. At the end of every area, her outfit either gets damaged or becomes environmentally incorrect, so she snaps her fingers to summon a new one. Towards the end of the game, she comments that she's running out of spare outfits in her wardrobe spell.
Line 42:
== [[Western Animation]] ==
* ''[[Looney Tunes]]'' is probably the [[Trope Codifier]], if not the [[Trope Maker]].
* The Music Meister from ''[[Batman: The Brave And The Bold|Batman the Brave And The Bold]]'' could costume change via [[Flung Clothing]].
* Babs Bunny on ''[[Tiny Toon Adventures]]'' frequently does the spin-change.
