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...

Cosplay Feature: Kristen Hughey's Lara Croft!


This week I wanted to feature the lovely Kristen Hughey again since she definitely has an amazing collection of cosplays created. The outfit for today is her Lara Croft of Tomb Raider fame. The outfit is fairly simple but Kristen makes it work for and looks stunning in the end result photos. If my memory is right, this outfit is one of Lara's earliest ones when she was created for her first game. A blue top with brown shorts. The wig looks especially amazing on her and I love how long hair suits her. Boots and straps for her guns are also included in the outfit. Black gloves and a belt buckle are also part of the outfit.

The blue shirt (at least to me) definitely shows off Kristen's bust which matches the iconic bust size that Lara is known for (which thus led to her being one of the first sex symbols in video gaming on top of being a famous leading lady). The other big part that makes the outfit is the gorgeous bright setting outdoors where Kristen had this shot. It's perfect for a character like Lara and the poses she makes match up as well. More pictures from the shoot are down below so I hope you guys enjoy them!
