More bending badassery today. We had Korra yesterday, but now we have one of her predecessors from the original Last Airbender show, Toph. This is a simply phenomenal costume from head to toe.

Character: Korra (The Legend of Korra)

The Legend of Korra is one of my favorite shows on right now, and I have yet to see a bad cosplay of her to date. This is the third one I’ve featured, and they only seem to be getting better over time. I LOVE Melting Mirror’s take on her here.

Character: Daenerys Targaryen (Game of Thrones)

Game of Thrones is now officially back on the air, so why not celebrate with a bit of new cosplay from the series? I always like going back to cosplayers who reach out to me, and Tarah-Rex did just that after we featured her Lilith costume some time ago.

I’ve stumbled upon another treasure trove of fantastic costumes. This one goes by the name “Rukii.” Her real name is Alexa, and she’s a 21 year old woman from Russia with a hell of a talent for cosplay. Her costumes span comics and video games and movies, and you’ll see classics like Wonder Woman alongside new era heroes like Underworld’s Selene. It’s a truly impressive collection of costumes, and you should be sure to look through them all below:

Mother of God, it’s the Mother of Dragons"

Character: Daenerys Targaryen (Game of Thrones)

With Game of Thrones under a month away, I expect we’ll be seeing a lot more Game of Thrones cosplay come to light. And that’s fine with me! This is a great version of Daenerys, whose name I have never once spelled right on my first try.

Avatar’s Toph: The Blind Bending Badass"

Character: Toph Bei Fong (Avatar: The Last Airbender)

There’s good cosplay, and there’s perfect cosplay, and this is some of the latter. Toph was one of my favorite characters from The Last Airbender, and I’m glad to see someone else is such a huge fan. This costume is simply fantastic, from the shoot itself to the actual ensemble. And those eyes, just phenomenal.
