Cos-Play


First time I've ever been to a cosplay thingy. It was actually a toys and hobbies convention. But still a lot, as in hordes of people came in wearing their costumes.

These cosplayers(as I call them) were fuckin' creative! Hands down, they could match other cosplayers from like Japan or somethin'. Some looked like characters from Naruto. Some from that other show in GMA 7 where they rode pirate ships. I even saw Ultraman and Mask Rider Black, 2 of my Japanese childhood heroes.

What impressed me most were 3 other cosplayers. They were head and shoulders above the rest. They literally stood out from the rest of the wannabes.

1st was Gundam or a robot from that series. It was like 6 feet tall or somethin, complete with body armor and gun!

Next was War Machine! I guess it was easier on the cos-player's part to do War MAchine instead of Iron Man because War Machine's body armor dealt with only 1 color, just different shades. War Machine was even equipped with a gatling gun mounted on his shoulder. It was even spinning like the real thing!

Last but certainly not the least was Mecha-Godzilla! It was the biggest of 'em all. It had a long tail and it had a li'l trouble walking. The coolest thing about this cos-play version of Mecha-Godzilla was that it was emitting smoke from turbines located on its sides! I was wondering where he kept his smoke machine apparatus.

Great cosplay event, though there's a real cos-play convention on 03-27-10. Same place, Robinson's Manila.
