Darth Vader was about as masculine as bad guys can get. But why shouldn’t female cosplayers be able to dress up as the Dark Lord too? With this Darth Vader pinafore, now they can.

Whether you need one for cosplay of you just want really large fingers, Ivan Owen can give you a hand. Literally. Owen runs ChainCrafts, an Etsy store that specializes in armor, costumes and jewelry. His most intriguing product is the mechanical hand that’s twice the size of a human hand.

Every time I think that the guys over at SceeneShoes have run out of ideas for more geeky braziers, they come up with another. Previously, we had some Nintendo and Pokemon bras, followed by a TMNT bra, and then an Xbox 360 controller bra.

Jen of Cake Wrecks – the chronicler of confectionery catastrophes – is also a recycling Jedi. She and her husband John made this steampunk lightsaber out of an old flashlight. It doesn’t emit a straight beam of plasma, but it still makes for an awesome cosplay accessory or night light.

Now I’m not a big cosplayer myself, but I can definitely appreciate quality costumes when I see them – and this one is a doozie. What you’re looking at here is an incredible leather armor getup that’s sure to scare the crap out of anyone who comes your way.

The Falcon has never looked so graceful in flight as it does while this girl is walking down the street, though it does tend to rock back and forth with every movement of her hips. Hey that’s only because she’s navigating an asteroid field of cat calls and TIE fighters.

Damn! Look at the size of that hole in this Stormtroopers helmet. I think that before the shot was fired, this corpsetrooper heard a rebel utter, “You’re all clear kid, let’s blow this thing and get out of here!”

If you never saw Fritz Lang’s classic science 1927 fiction film Metropolis, you owe it to yourself to watch this early bit of cinematic history, with its view of a dystopian future, dramatic costumes, sets and cinematography.

I have to say that this little R2-D2 ballerina outfit looks pretty cute, and it’s easy to recognize the original droid. It was designed by Leeloo who works as a designer for J!NX. It looks like an awesome Halloween costume or something you could wear to cosplay adventures.

Hi, I’m Commander Lambert Shepard and this is a sweet pair of metallic spandex leggings, enhanced with the N7 armor color scheme by Etsy seller/superhero costume maker/Citadel shopkeeper Alexandra Threw (aka Peachykiki.)  They won’t protect you from Reaper attacks, but it will grant you an army of oglers.

The biggest wound I ever had when I was a kid was about two inches in diameter. It hurt, it looked gross, and I probably cried buckets whenever my mom would change the dressing. But those nasty looking open wounds you see on this girl’s knees down below?

I’ve been playing countless hours of Skyrim. I’ve fought dragons, bandits, mages, bought a house and shouted at everyone, but I have yet to see a character like this female Dragonborn. Her armor rating may be a zero, but she looks like a perfect 10 in that get-up.

It’s been a long time since I played any of the Diablo games, but they are among my favorites. So when I saw this amazing Demon Hunter costume, it made my day. The costume looks great as does the girl inside of all that armor.

Looking for a way to both keep your arms warm and be prepared for when a medieval clash breaks out? Browse Etsy seller Crystal Idyll’s array of dragonhide gauntlets. By dragonhide she means anodized aluminum, BTW.

They call Batman The Dark Knight because he acts like a knight, helping the people of Gotham in need, despite his somewhat barbaric tactics. His cause is right and just, like a Knight on a quest.

I’m actually quite surprised we haven’t seen anyone do this before, but here they are: headphone covers that will bestow upon the wearer Princess Leia’s trademark cinnamon buns. So yeah, they’re wigs for your headphones.
