Cosplay Feature: Wumbo's Monoco!

Photo by David Ngo Happy February! I hope you had an amazing start to your new year and that you're excited to learn about the amazing cosplays that are out there for 2026. The cosplay community usually dubs the one-two punch of MAGFest & Katsucon as the kickoff for the convention season. I spent the last month or so gathering cosplays that as of today's date, all stem from the former! I also am insanely excited that many of these I'm about to share are first time write-ups for the creators themselves. Today, you get a look at Wumbo's masterful recreation of known feet lover Monoco from 2025's Game of the Year, Expedition 33! In looking at some of the photo posts on her instagram, she made all of this by herself so I don't have to worry about adding in extra creators who may have assisted with design files etc. Quick backstory, Monoco is the last party member you add to your team who's a longtime friend of Verso and gained a grasp on the English language...

Cherry Sauce Clothing!

Today I want to share with you another awesome product that I discovered thanks to the all mighty power of the Internet. The product being really cool shirts, hoodies, and prints from an indie company based up in Canada! Cherry Sauce Clothing is a small apparel business founded by 2 friends Mike and Jason based in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada in 2009. Their goal with these products is to celebrate the inner child in all of us as time moves on and we grow up.

All of their shirts and hoodies have designs done by Mike (who's also an animator) while Jason is the so called "business side" of the company. Some of the shirts include Pokemon from the original 3 starters, a twisted version of Pikachu, badass designs of Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise, etc. I myself currently own 3 of their shirts, I should also note that these shirts are SUPER comfortable. Seriously I could sleep in these shirts (in fact i have), the prints are also nice with most having the same image as on the shirt.

Most of the shirts come in at $22 with hoodies at $30. Also available are stickers, lanyards and wristbands that have the motto of "Imagine, Create, Inspire". I can strongly say that these guys definitely live up to it. Some of the designs are 8-bit versions from Health/Mana potions to Finn and Jake from the cartoon Adventure Time.

Here are some pictures of me wearing the shirts so here's what they look like!

Squirtle T-Shirt titled "Minimal Starter Blue"

8-bit Health Potion!

Appropriately titled "Perkerchew"
I definitely recommend you check these guys out! They also managed to get some pretty cool people to help model their shirts. I've included links to their store site, Facebook Page and Twitter if you want to keep up with them :)
