The Pro Skater reboot gives players more control over who they play and what they look like than ever before. Now, it seems that fans are really taking advantage of all of the options available.

This week, Reddit user @crimson_APD shared their latest Pro Skater creation to the blink-182 thread and it is truly impressive. They have recreated DeLonge’s Boomer from the “First Date” music video, handlebar mustache and all. Equipped with his yellow shirt, shorts and Vans, the virtual recreation of the iconic character is spot on.

Another Pro Skater player is showing off their latest creation that is paying tribute to Nightmare on Elm Street. Earlier this week, @ToombstonedPizza unveiled “Shreddy Krueger” on Reddit.

Featuring his infamous striped sweater and even a purple top hat, Kreuger is apparently leaving his murderous behavior behind to hit the pavement in the new Pro Skater.
