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: Marie Grey's Rule 63 Auron!

I had to feature Marie Grey's Rule 63 Auron on a basis of several reasons: a) She loves Final Fantasy 10 as much as I do, b) It's PERFECT and c) the finished shots look amazing! I'm hoping to one day to see her in this cosplay cause why not? I love the fabrics she used for the many parts of this cosplay and Marie was so kind enough to let me know how she made certain parts of the outfit. For example, the robe is a suiting material with added leather buckles and straps. The flower trims were placed around the neckline and I really love how it compliments the blue it's laid upon. The obi was done twice with the first version having created with a laid curtain and extra fabric she had. The updated version was done in separate layers!


The bottom can zip up in the back with pinstripes done with a pen! The leotard is a basic dance leotard and the wig was cheap to purchase, Marie just had to add in gray wefts! The sunglasses were also a great find for her. Her boots believe it or not came from her Black Canary cosplay and the sword was commissioned by Assert Revenge! Lastly, the bracers and pauldron was crafted with Worbla :D. I love how the photos came out with Marie doing badass poses with her sword and battle stances. She definitely captures Auron's personality of a stoic/silent badass that can really mess you up if you tick him off! The various settings in them are also fantastic! This cosplay will always be a favorite of Marie's, hope you guys enjoy the photos!
