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: Ultra Girls Cosplay looking Fabulous!


I always love when the Ultra Girls have a duo cosplay that really capture my eye. Whether it's matching outfits or completely different characters, I get excited when they announce some of their upcoming outfits. Such is the case with the cosplays I have for you today. Cissa and Sophii created Morrigan (Darkstalkers) and Cloud (Final Fantasy 7) respectively and had a chance to shoot them both a few months ago if memory serves. I absolutely loved how both of these cosplays turned out and was fangirling on the inside since these characters are some of my all time favorites. Why not start with Cissa? For Morrigan, she went with the classic look for her. A black leotard like top makes up the base of it with purple tights covering her legs. The tights themselves have the signature bat patterns throughout. On the suit, the heart seems to be sewn in and of tan coloring rather than having the suit cut out into the shape like seen on other Morrigan cosplays.

Cissa's arms are also covered in a much lighter purple fabric. Not to mention also the bunches of white fluff/fur that's seen on the outer trim of the main suit. I love how that looks in the pictures as well. Rounding out the rest of the cosplay are the wings that are on her head PLUS the giant ones coming out of her back. The wings on Cissa's head also look super cute here. In terms of posing, she really captures Morrigan's seductive nature and the landscape style shots look amazing!

Moving on to Sophii, she cosplayed everyone's favorite brooding Ex-SOLDIER Cloud! Much like Cissa's Morrigan, I got super excited when I saw pictures of this pop up. Sophii here is cosplaying as the Advent Children version. So it's black on black on black, with leather straps and the signature shoulder pad. The wolf insignia is also done super well, possibly sculpted! Sophii is also wearing a gorgeous wig and she just looks so badass as well.

Zippers can be seen all over the place and there's a slight sex appeal element with this being a gender bend and all that! The black/red background for both cosplays really work well together though it can be a bit hard to make out some of Sophii's cosplay. I'd love to see her tackle the infamous Buster Sword one day, maybe that's a future project for her? Both these cosplays are just incredible and the Ultra Girls NEVER disappoint <3. Enjoy the other pictures guys!

The Ultra Girls will always have my support so I definitely recommend checking them out if you haven't already. Sophii's working on Yang from RWBY and they both debuted some gorgeous Espeon/Umbreon gijinkas recently! You won't regret it I promise <3
