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 Showcase: Jessica Nigri's Battle Armor Elsa!


When Jessica Nigri unveiled the idea of making a Battle Armored Version of Elsa from Disney's Frozen, you can imagine how excited I was to see this come together. The idea of the Battle Armored Disney Princesses was created by Gladzy Kei Art over on deviantArt. Jess instantly fell in love with the designs and actually asked the artist to imagine what Elsa would look like in this particular attire. Once finished, Jess went right to work in making the armor and let me tell you, the designs on each armor part are incredible!

The fabric covering her legs, arms and down between the legs look beautiful and are of a light transparent blue. Each of these are covered with either arm guards of leg armor. The armor around Jess' waist reminds me of the way she did the same thing for her Janna from League of Legends not too long ago. One shoulder pauldron is on her right shoulder and everything looks gorgeous!

Worbla was the main material used for the armor. In addition, glitter was used to make the armor pieces pop and look all snow-like! Jessica also crafted a hood and the rims along that and her chest plate are adorned with white fur.  For the wig, Jess had a difficult time styling it and asked fellow cosplayer and awesome friend Destiny Nickelsen since she made an outstanding Elsa herself. The cosplay was debuted at Anime Revolution in Canada along with other cosplayers who did different princesses. The editing on the photos look simply amazing! :D ALL THE PRETTY BLUE!
