This cosplay is just too good. I am not convinced that these are not just giant, sentient LEGOs. This couple put a lot of effort into building these looks, and it shows! Amazing (and slightly unsettling)!<\/p>\n
Another Sad Case of a Child Actress Letting Herself Go<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"owerBUFF](\"https:\/\/cdn.thedesigninspiration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/05\/owerbuff-girls.jpeg\")

This guy absolutely nailed his Joker cosplay. It\u2019s not just about the costume, and this guy gets it. Just look at that sinister grin!<\/p>\n
Move Over Batman<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"atwoman](\"https:\/\/cdn.thedesigninspiration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/05\/atwoman-win.jpeg\")
<\/p>\n
Yeah, Batman is cool and all, but check out the Batwoman! This costume is absolutely stunning. This Batwomen slayed it. That Joker guy better watch out.<\/p>\n
Starr Warz<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"tar](\"https:\/\/cdn.thedesigninspiration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/05\/tar-wars-version-0-1.jpeg\")
<\/p>\n
If these men are cosplaying as bootlegged Star Wars<\/em> toys, then they nailed it!

I love women superheroes! But to be honest, if this Supergirl showed up to rescue me, I would probably try to run away from her! She looks slightly off-putting.<\/p>\n
Sinful Sims<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"ims](\"https:\/\/cdn.thedesigninspiration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/05\/ims-like-a-good-costume.jpeg\")
<\/p>\n
This is a great cosplay idea! Who didn\u2019t love playing The Sims for hours on end while their actual lives passed them by? These ladies made hilarious and perfect naked Sim costumes.<\/p>\n
Well, I\u2019m not rubbing THAT<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"ust](\"https:\/\/cdn.thedesigninspiration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/05\/ust-rub-it.jpeg\")

A Beautifully Done Baroness<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"he](\"https:\/\/cdn.thedesigninspiration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/05\/he-baroness.jpeg\")

Duct Tape fixes everything\u2026. Except for these poor turtles<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"inja](\"https:\/\/cdn.thedesigninspiration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/05\/inja-turtles-discover-green-tape.jpeg\")

Ms. Moon? Is that you?<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"hats](\"https:\/\/cdn.thedesigninspiration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/05\/hats-wrong-here.jpeg\")

This Sailor Moon cosplay is accurate, but something about it seems a little off-brand. I can\u2019t put my finger on it\u2026.<\/p>\n
Bagman<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"ome](\"https:\/\/cdn.thedesigninspiration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/05\/ome-errands.jpeg\")
<\/p>\n
Is this Batman or my Waitr delivery guy? Either way, the costume is on point. But seeing Batman carrying takeout down the road takes away from his superhero image. Plus, don\u2019t bats eat fruit and bugs?<\/p>\n
A VERY Incredible Hulk<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"ncredible](\"https:\/\/cdn.thedesigninspiration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/05\/ncredible-hulk.jpeg\")
<\/p>\n
This suit was easily the best one at the 2012 Comic Con in Montreal. I don\u2019t think I would have asked him for an autograph\u2026 he looks pretty angry!<\/p>\n
This guy seriously ran the gamut with his Gambit<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"ambit\"](\"https:\/\/cdn.thedesigninspiration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/05\/ambit.jpeg\")

Sometimes random, recurring characters can be our favorites in TV shows. The cleaning lady from Family Guy is delightfully dry and has hilarious one-liners. This cosplayer and their lack of expression perfectly capture the maid we all love, even if she has no name.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
I\u2019m sure this woman is a lovely soul, but her Maleficent cosplay looks downright devious. I feel like she could destroy us with her gaze. And she even brought along her wicked raven, Diablo. These two look like they have something rather ominous planned.<\/p>\n

Wonder Wobear is famous for his innovative take on Wonder Woman. Even Linda Carter is a big fan of his!<\/p>\n Sometimes random, recurring characters can be our favorites in TV shows. The cleaning lady from Family Guy is delightfully dry and has hilarious one-liners. This cosplayer and their lack of expression perfectly capture the maid we all love, even if she has no name.<\/p>\n This Ash (from Evil Dead) cosplay is absolutely stunning! The dedication to detail in the costume and accessories is astounding. Perfect!<\/p>\n \u2026to describe how absolutely adorable this Green Arrow is! Sorry to all the cosplayers who spent twelve months of blood, sweat, and tears on your perfect costumes \u2013 but this felt robe on a tiny Bulldog wins the best costume award forever, until the end of time. 12\/10.<\/p>\n I doubt this guy breathes fire, but I\u2019d rather run into the real <\/em>Bowser in a dark alley than this guy. Yikes!<\/p>\n The women and men who create these amazing gowns all deserve awards. Look at how gorgeous this custom dress is? 10\/10 work!<\/p>\n Who doesn\u2019t love Bob\u2019s Burgers? Every character is hilarious, so why pick just one? This whole family cosplayed as the Belcher family and the perfected the look! I can hear Tina saying \u201cUgggghhhhhhh\u201d just by looking at this picture. (And how adorable is that Louise?)<\/p>\n This guy nailed the infamous Beetlejuice suit; unfortunately the horizontal stripes aren\u2019t doing their job. He\u2019s still looking pretty fly for a dead guy!<\/p>\n This Princess Peach costume is beautiful! This woman nailed our favorite constantly kidnapped Princess\u2019 pink style \u2013 she even brought along her buddy Toad! Let\u2019s hope the Carrot Top Bowser we saw earlier doesn\u2019t see her.<\/p>\n I apologize for that terrible title, but really? How great does this couple look as Link and Zelda? The outfits are pretty spot-on.<\/p>\n (It is supposed to be Kirby, right?) This whole getup is all wrong and creepy. Quick! Hide your kids and hide your wives.<\/p>\n This person is cosplaying Salvaged Confederate Adjutant from Starcraft 2. But surely witchcraft was used to design and create a costume this <\/em>immaculate. Are we sure this is pretend?<\/p>\n These two guys look so much like Jules and Vincent from Quentin Tarantino\u2019s cult classic Pulp Fiction <\/em>that you know you would totally ask them for an autograph and be none the wiser you hadn\u2019t just harassed the real <\/em>Jackson and Travolta for their John Hancocks. A story for the grandkids!<\/p>\n This is supposed to be Black Panther cosplay, but I\u2019m afraid this person missed the mark. The mask looks freakishly like my neighbor\u2019s Pit Bull \u2013 but much scarier. Hey \u2013 as long as this person is having fun!<\/p>\n Buzz RIGHTyear<\/strong><\/p>\n This cosplayer totally nailed Pixar legend Buzz Lightyear. This astronaut from the beloved film Toy Story <\/em>is one of our favorite characters \u2013 and this guy did him and his spectacular spacesuit justice. Great costume!<\/p>\n What is Groot? I\u2019m not sure, but I think this is actually him. There is no way somebody is talented enough to make a costume that detailed! Bravo, Groot. This cosplay is flawless.<\/p>\n I\u2019m sure this woman is a lovely soul, but her Maleficent cosplay looks downright devious. I feel like she could destroy us with her gaze. And she even brought along her wicked raven, Diablo. These two look like they have something rather ominous planned.<\/p>\n Props to this Elsa. Her gown is gorgeous and her long, blonde braids embody the Frozen <\/em>star. I wonder if her and the male Elsa from earlier ever hang out?<\/p>\n It takes a brave and attractive person to rock Wonder Woman\u2019s famous getup. This lady is killing it. She looks strong and <\/em>beautiful. Go girl!<\/p>\n If you\u2019re interested in cosplay then go check out a convention! They\u2019re always happening somewhere every few months, so keep an ear out. Worried you\u2019re not a good enough fashion designer? Did you see some of these atrocities?? Cosplay isn\u2019t just about nailing the costumes \u2013 most of it is about having fun and getting to be someone else for a day!<\/p>\n \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Cosplay, or \u201ccostume play\u201d for those of you out of the loop, has become an invading cultural phenomenon over the past decade.
