Yes! Reigniting the flame kindled within the hearts of every gamer on the planet. Ahem… I want to introduce you all to HAGGAR!!!!!!1!111
I gotta say, folks. I’ve done eight of these things and this guy’s face takes the cake. Look at that EYEBROW! It almost takes away from his upside-down-pear shaped body. Is it weird that this guy’s skin is as white as his idol’s teeth and eyeballs? Get sum sun, son.

Pokemon Trainer Ash Ass
Aaaaaaaaaaaand we’re back.
Here we have number 9 in the series that wades hip-deep in the putrid muck of bad cosplay. But I jest, I mean, not every cosplayer is invariably gawd-awful. Some are pretty cool, showing with their work an eye for detail, exacting standards and a real love for the hobby. It’s just 99% that are cringe-inducing bad.
What we have above isn’t really so bad, It’s not the worst thing you could cull from the depth this dark art.
I figured a return to form was in order now that we’re firmly two days in to the new year. No more of the previous leniency with the dregs of dress-uppery. May I present to you all, the first GBC of 2007 2008.

Dr. Robutt-nik (too easy)
Charles Vanderlough-Wittenfitz was born in to a life of privilege; being the only son of the automotive industry magnate James Vandelrough and the oil baroness Cynthia Wittenfitz. Charles played many a video game in his life, always having the means to acquire, play and discard the games as his inclination wanned. But as cartridges gave way to discs, the games came to mean more to him. They were no longer just the occupiers of time… time not spent at either Martha’s Vineyard with his detestable uncle Magnus or in the crushing, oppressive grip of the Langston Heathrow School for Boys in upstate New York.

Merry Christmas all! Seeing as how I’ve shown nothing but the bad side of the cosplay circuit, I figured that the Holidays would be a good time to showcase one of the better specimens the worlds next Official Olympic Event; dressing up like anime/video game characters.
SUBJECT #7
Grey Fox
I’m usually so caught up with belittling the cosplayers that when a legitimately well done creation finds it’s way on to my screen, I’m a bit taken back. This is one of the finer examples of the craft that I’ve come across, hands down. Even though it’s a woman inside the costume, I’d like to give the wearer a carpal-crushing handshake and a hearty slap on the back, as I look upon her with welled up eyes, brimming with tears and admiration. Hit the jump for more examples. Continue reading ‘The Good, the Bad and the Cosplay 5′
In celebration of the recent Street Fighter IV debacle between 1UP and some Brazilian blog, and the related screenshots of the game being available for ocular consumption, I now pronounce this GBC post to be completely SF themed!!!! Enjoy.

Ry-Ewwww!
My Critique:
Just because a game character is half human-half fox doesn’t mean there isn’t some one out there who doesn’t want to dress up as them. On the Contrary. That means the person who does dress up likes the character way too much.

Jeff “Yiff Master” Marklestonovich was born in Haapsalu, Estonia to Harriet and Bernard Marklestonovish, a couple who immigrated to Palmdale, California in 1951 in order to avoid political prosecution during the reign of “Terrible” Otto Teif . Until he was 23, Jeff possessed no material objects accept for stuffed fox (лиса) given to him by his long dead grandmother. When asked if that was a determining factor in why he dresses as CPT. McCloud, Jeff replied, “I leiyk thee fiyl of de fluyfy fyur”… Indeed. Continue reading ‘The Good, The Bad and The Cosplay 3′
