Our Favorite Cosplay From WonderCon 2024

Any time we get a badass version of Peach, I’m happy. Look at the details here—the perfectly coiffed wig, the mushrooms emblazoned on the cape clips, the adorable little crown. This is just so beautiful.

I’m biased (Mass Effect is my favorite series of all time) but boy this is just so good. Look at Garrus’ handsome face! Look at that smirk on Shepard, the scratches on her armor! This is top-tier.

Alfred Molina is that you?

It’s the boys!

Hell yeah, everyone’s favorite adoptive father/daughter duo! I looked into cosplaying Shin a few months ago, and just the inside-out stitching on her chest piece looked daunting, so this is really impressive to see. And Baylen really captures the late Ray Stevenson’s scowl.

The crossover event of the century: Rey meetes Sailor moon, pink lightsaber and all. This whips so much ass. Look at the cat ears on BB-8!

I love to see a cosplayer lean into the build aspects of a costume. This is really impressive.

You show an deep understanding of a character when your cosplay riffs slightly on their design—Juri probably wouldn’t wear a belly ring to fight because ouch, but casual Juri hanging out at a ‘con definitely would.

Hell yeah, praise the Brotherhood.

Oh this is just so icky and awesome. I am disturbed and amazed.

This is one of those costumes where I had to do several takes to figure out what was real, what was prosthetics, or what was just a giant mask/head piece. This is wild.

I love Borderlands cosplayers, solely because I think the visual style of the games translates so well into the real world. The cel-shaded details on her face, body, and gun are just perfect.

You better not be a cunty Xenomorph queen when I get to WonderCon.

Look at that weathered Mjolnir armor, the reflectiveness of the visor, how those Needler crystals glisten—you could tell me this was the armor from the Halo TV series and I’d believe you.

It’s the kintsugi troopers!

Everyone’s favorite bad boy gunslinger looks absolutely incredible here, from the smirk of his little mouth to the texture on his vest. This is incredibly high quality, and beautifully made.

Body paint is always tough to work with, but look at how cleverly she uses white as highlight on her face! I love makeup! This is so good.

I love a crossover cosplay, and I didn’t know how badly I needed this until I saw it.
