Here’s another extremely well done costume. I think cosplayers in the US are finally catching up to their counterparts in the far east in terms of creativity and quality. And I’ve got a theory to share as well..I think most of the top-quality cosplaying that we’ve been seeing has something in common, and that’s most of them have costumes which completely cover the cosplayers’ face and body. So I guess the lesson to be learnt is to put on something that doesn’t give your identity (or body measurements) away. Ironic ain’t it, considering how cosplaying originated from animes and most animes have scantily clad brtues & babes.

This here has my vote as the single most impressive collectible for SDCC 09. Everything about it shouts “Look At Me!”. It’ll be produced by Legacy Effects (formerly known as Stan Winston Studios). It’s massive at 1 meter tall, and the light-up chest and eyes just make it look like a slightly miniaturized version of the real thing. I want!

Video below has footage of the maquette towards the end of it.

The Serenity ship that’s been in the works by Quantum Mechanix (QMx) has finally been completed, and it made its maiden debut at SDCC 09. And what a piece of work it is! I absolutely loved the Firefly TV series, and together with Twenty Four (24) the series, are IMHO two of the best series of all time. So you can imagine my excitement when I saw pictures and videos of the ship in its full glory.

My only concern now is how much it’ll cost. I hope it won’t be ridiculously expensive as I would really love to add this girl to my collection.
