Inflatable Rex Costume Skin — Detailed Guide
A full-body costume from Summer Bash 2021
Equipping the Inflatable Rex Costume Skin turns your survivor's whole look into a costume. It came to ARK: Survival Evolved with ARK: Summer Bash 2021, and ARK: Survival Ascended lists it as Inflatable Rex Costume. It is equipped in the Chest Armor slot, and the in-game text spells out how it behaves: "This will override all other skins, acting as a full-body costume. Should always be set on Torso Armor."
Two ways to craft it
The wiki gives two recipes: 150 
Cooked Prime Meat in a 
Cooking Pot, or in a 
Smithy from 50 
Popsicle. Our records hold the Cooked Prime Meat version. Crafting takes 5 seconds, which our ASE record confirms, and gives 1 XP. The costume weighs 0 and has a stack size of 1. The wiki dates it to version 332.1.
A skin that changes the whole survivor
The wiki names this costume, the 
Mutated Survivor Costume Skin, the 
Skeleton Costume Skin and the 
Dinopithecus Costume Skin as the only skins that change the survivor's whole appearance rather than just the chest.
The squeak and the empty buff icon
Wearing it shows a blank buff icon. The wiki explains that the icon was meant to signal that the wearer makes more noise, an idea dropped before it reached the game, and the costume is now purely cosmetic. You still hear rubber squeaking while it is on, without any effect on gameplay.
