Samurai Jack villain Aku was not pleased to have to wait his turn to have his comics signed.
This Silent Hill nurse was guarding the elevator to the café.
This mirror-ball brilliant elven character came directly from the cosplayer's own imagination, he said.

This space marine said he spent about 280 hours of work on his StarCraft armor.
Some cool new technology at the show, including Zero Point 3D, which was on hand with its photo booth to turn cosplayers into a 3D render and create custom-painted ceramic figures using a 3D printer (available 4 – 6 weeks after image processing).
Alana, Marko, and baby Hazel from Saga.
