LOL. :hehe:

No it doesn't spin, and one of the blades almost broke off. :hehe:

Aww... :(

If it spun, it would've been really cool. :victory:

More from the show~ crowd was horrendous!

But in Japan, some cosplayers would only allow 1 photographer shooting him/her each time, so you might expect long queues snaking from the popular cosplayers. When it's your turn, you can shoot all you like and they'd pose for you.

Dang, that looks mad crazy... :sweat:

Props to you for braving through all that to get some pics. :victory:

I actually had a huge load of photos from that small area! Just join the queue to avoid the crowd-around style.

Who's more kawaii??

Nice pics :metaldevil: I couldn't make it to the TGS. I really wanted to test out GT5 and COD Black Ops.

Unless you went on a business day, it would take hours to queue for each game. But then again, the cosplay wasn't there on the business days. Felt like going to Disneyland, Dissidia 012 queues were closed within 30 minutes from opening!

I think the idea of queueing up for individual shoots with the cosplayer is a good idea. Never seen it possible in Singapore!

Most cosplayers have namecards to give away when exchanging contacts. Some even have multiple designs on hand for you to choose from. Usually, they would only include their alias, and not their real name.

I know of some cosplayers in Singapore, they come from all professions and will do a new costume at each cosplay event. :metaldevil:

Namecards are an amusing concept. I wonder which is the most popular character chosen? :headscratch:

Thats quite a pair of contact lenses this gal is wearing too..

Hey, theyre missing the watermelon. Or maybe they arent in the South. :beaten:

Vocaloid and Final Fantasy XIII characters seem to be the most popular. Of course, there would always be cosplays of other FF characters from 7 and up! (when they started making the characters realistic)
