This isn't technically a fursuit considering there is no fur involved since I don't know how to sew conventional fabric, let alone mascot fur.
Anyway I've been wanting to do a costume of Kayko for awhile. This is all I have so far, and its honestly a work in progress right now. Not particularly professional, but its all I can make myself for now. The shirt was $2.50 from Goodwill. Its just a regular thermal shirt that I've painted with waterproof house paint. My main focus is going to be the wingspan of which I'll be posting a prototype soon. Since I was a kid I've had this fascination with wings, and have wanted to build my own set of them. My design is going to be big but simple and will be really the focus of my costume. However it needs to be light as well, and it will be removable since it will probably be slightly heavy and cumbersome. I may commission the tail since that will require sewing. The head I'll probably do in paper mache. I haven't decided on whether to do legs or not.
Here is an example of Kayko's wingspan http://www.furaffinity.net/view/10102392/
For now I'm not planning on showing it off, but even if I do finish it and show it off I may leave the wingspan at home and just post pictures, considering it might be a bit fragile.

I admit, I'm impressed by the attention to detail in the shape of the chest and abs. I actually thought those were sewn into place. Also, smart move using waterproof paint; makes it possible to wash. I would still be careful though; I'm not sure about how house paint reacts to washing machines, and it may eventually peel off or something...
Also, my sister mentioned that it reminds her a lot of the dragon mail from Skyrim.
