Cosfest 2008

Another year, another Cosfest. Even though I only attended the day 2 of the event, this year's edition turned out memorable for me, thanks to...

GUNDAM!

That silly grin remained a permanent fixture on my face once I caught sight of him. Man, I'm not even a mecha fan and I'm going wobbly knees over him. I can totally empathized if the Gundman fans experienced multiple orgams on that day.

Look at the details and craftsmenship of his costume.

Which didn't go down too well with the Kung Fu posse. Of course, Gundman easily fended them off.


If only the Kung Fu posse consulted me before their skirmish, I would gladly point them towards the chink in Gundam seemingly impregnable amour for a

1 million dollars. Mwahahaha

Someone hand me some rubber bands.

Another uber cool cosplayer was Optimus Prime.

Optimus: Er...Where did the bad guys go?
Subordinate: Boss, they finished their business and even had time for pratas and teh tariks while you were transforming.
(Ps. The gal in green looks kind of cute)

Optimus Prime looks like Mini-Me.

But that did not stop him from squaring off with Gundam...

And comparing the size of their...er.. exhaust pipes.

But don't you think he resembles 陈汉典 from 大闷锅 and 康熙 ?

Pee, you're on Candid Camera!

A annual highlight is of course meeting 031 at the event

Cosfest082
031's cosplaying as .. I dunno, some pizza hut delivery gal in a shocking pink outfit, on day 1.

The pink monster and Sheryl Nomes on day 2.

Given that I have lost touch with the manga/anime scene sans the weekly viewing of One Piece, Bleach and Naruto manga, I couldn't really identify 99% of the costumes that were being paraded by the cosplayers. However the below few managed to catch my eyes during the event:

The Most Nosebleed inducing Cosplayer

This lady showed up for the first day of the Cosfest. Thankfully I wasn't around, or the National Bloodbank would be facing an unprecedented shortage on that day.

A close second, the gal with the big mechanic wings, and a crayfish shell amour.

Most Colorful Costume

The most colorful and catchy costume. Now is the cosplayer male or female? Hmm

Most WTF!? Costume
IMG_3299
According to Ooof, the closest thing to an Otaku in my social circle, he/she is Elizabeth the Duck from Gintama.

Most Authentic Cosplayer

For the third year running, Mr. Chao Li Ku wins with his getup as Singapore SAF Recruit.

And there you go, my tongue-in-cheek take on this year's Cosfest. Please do not be offended by what is written here, for I am just a useless piece of pink meat.

This guy can cause a riot by himself.

打得火热

流著大汗还盖被吃喷火的咖哩竟然倍觉美味
犹像现在我跟你最烫手蒸汽机爱上点火器
麻辣就是你的标记我不怕热气晚晚要与你竞技
几多恋火烧不起最尾我鄐遇上你更确信火爆有理

我知我与你会爱得激烈
越亲越热然后短兵相接
我不怕爱上你与你打得火热
像这般亲热谁又需要撇脱
我知我与你会爱得轰烈
热恋事业谁亦呕心沥血
我不怕爱上你爱到水深火热
幸福的死穴情愿一世倒贴

骑著大象游肯雅泰国沙滩砌沙只能约你去吧
炎夏若是难招架有你奖它两巴我也不必怕
谁若慢热面斥不雅要找快乐吗
快看看我两个吧好比火种跟烟花
你与我要是碰上会引发一串爆炸
