Is that from that CollegeHumor fake trailer for a live-action Daria movie, or is this an isolated incident of two teen girls dressing up like Daria and Jane?

You really gotta hand it to the guy dressed as Jaime Lannister. That's a good costume.

Seconding that this is great. As I said it's nice to see someone actually try with a Slave Leia crossplay instead of it just being some 300 pound guy jamming into the smallest clothes he can find.

When I was a kid in the 80s, I got my Admiral Ackbar figure at Target. On the way home, Mom stopped at McDonald's to grab dinner. I looked at Ackbar's pants, looked at the yellow stripe on a McDonald's straw:

And ever since, I can't see the Admiral without thinking about McDonald's.

Photo dump from PAX East! I wasn't really specifically looking for photos, this is just what I got wandering around and taking snapshots when the opportunity arose. The expo hall was a lot more crowded this year too, probably missed a lot of cool costumes just because I didn't want to stop in the middle of an aisle to get a picture. Click on any of them for table-breakingly enormous.

Hyperlight Drifter (I only know cause she told me). Yes the sword lights up (and is incredibly bright).

A pretty awesome looking Loki, she was vaguely affiliated with one of the booths

WARHAMS! Needs more skulls though.

Not cosplay, but a sweet as hell statue at the 2K booth promoting Evolve

Slightly blurry group shot, no idea what any of them are. I feel like I should know these.

Assasin's creed something-or-other.

No idea.

Here's a new trend, there were at least a dozen different groups going around doing video interviews with cosplayers. I've seen video interviews before, but it's always been one or two fairly professional looking crews who set up in a corner somewhere and interview the really really good cosplayers. This year at PAX though there was a goddamn plague of amateurs like mr. alienware shirt here and his out of shot accomplice wandering around and conducting video interviews wherever the hell they felt like it.

Ghostbusters always seem like cool dudes.

uhhh...?

Oh hey, a sweet Zelda group says I. I think I'll go over and ask them for a picture. NOPE VIDEO CREW OUT OF NOWHERE.

I have no idea what this person's costume is, but they were awesome.

Mortal Kombat maybe?

No ideas, they were with the previous ninja.

Mixed group, Elsa(?), Rogue (?), ???(?)

Jesus, as it turns out, is a pretty cool dude who hung out with us while we were waiting in what turned out to be the wrong line.

I am reasonably certain that this is a pokemon.

Dragon age inquisition. I don't have up close photos but all of her armor pieces were made out of some sort of hard plastic and then painted. Looked really good.

And that's about all I got, if anyone knows what the ones I couldn't identify are I'd love to know. Also someone else here has to have been at PAX East, anyone else got pictures? I saw a lot of awesome cosplay and only got pictures of a small fraction of it.

edit: ^^^ bah

It looks like she's using her phone as a gauntlet, which both works well with the character and is also probably the easiest way to keep your phone on you while cosplaying in something without pockets.

Since no one picked this one up, yes, they're Mortal Kombat characters--Cyrax and Sektor, respectively. The costumes are pretty spot on. They're cyborg ninjas and have been around since the third game.

Also, I love that Gato figure Lucca's holding :3:
