Cosplay Feature: Jess Blaze Cosplay's Lady Luck Rikku!

If there's one thing I can count on Jess Blaze to do, is cosplaying all the Final Fantasy waifus your heart desires. She's certainly no stranger to Rikku's look from FF X-2 but I really loved this additional costume change done for the character. Those not familiar with X-2's gameplay, it involves the traditional job system from previous entries but adds in the fun mechanic of changing clothes. Dress-spheres in this case! One such job is the Lady Luck sphere which deals with a lot of abilities based on the classic Gambler job. I'm mostly assuming because it's been both years since I replayed X-2 and I don't even think I used this class in particular for any of the three main characters. With all that intro out of the way, let's get to the cosplay itself! Upon looking at the pictures, Jess mentions in one of the captions that the cosplay itself is no longer in her possession. This is due to how uncomfortable it was to wear at the convention she debuted it

Product Review: Guardians of the Galaxy Retro Jacket by Hero Within!


I've certainly enjoyed my previous purchases from Apparel company Hero Within so when I was heard they landed licensing rights to Marvel themed products, I was certainly piqued. If you know me at all, I'm mostly a DC Comics biased guy but one Marvel property I certainly loved was the Guardians of the Galaxy. Star Lord, Rocket and the gang are pretty interesting and likable characters for sure! I had an idea that the guys over at HW would somewhat focus on items related to MCU specific characters, so just how were the Guardians going to pop up? Enter in the GotG themed Retro Jacket that I finally received last week after pre-ordering at NYCC in October! I was incredibly excited to wear this and oh man does it fit like a glove. It's definitely has that retro style with its smooth yet rough texture all around the jacket.

The cuffs and trim along the bottom are done in a different fabric style with super thin stripes around them. There's an interesting strap that wraps around the neck and snaps in place up in that area. Most likely to increase the warm feeling you can have when wearing this. What's also viewable is a breast-pocket and a small black label with "Guardians" printed in white. You can also see a pattern etched into the back and sleeves. Honestly the jacket could be perfect for a Star-Lord cosplay. I definitely felt that I looked like Chris Pratt while wearing this <3.

The inside of the jacket is where things get pretty. It's lined with a beautiful galaxy print and the movie logo as well. There's also a few pockets on the inside and on the normal areas outside as well. Some snap straps can be seen on the back. Definitely has that retro/90s vibe and I love it so much! Check out these other pics!






This is yet another piece from the Hero Within catalog that fans of the property will surely love. There's also other pieces such as a Black Panther car coat, and an Avengers jacket! Check out these guys at the link down below!
