When it comes to comic book movies that make us want to the be the characters we see on screen, there are few options with more of a plethora of choice than Marvelâs Guardians of the Galaxy. From Star-Lord to Gamora to Drax and Groot, if they were in Guardians, thereâs a good chance people are trying to find ways to become them. However, thereâs one character thatâs been a bit of challenge for some in the months since the filmâs release: Rocket Raccoon.
Unlike his other team members, Rocket is, well, a Raccoon, and that makes the foul mouthed creature a hard being to crack from a costume standpoint⦠luckily, the fine folks at Her Universe are here to help with a new top that will satisfy any dreams you have of being a talking Raccoon for a day:
Really, itâs the ears and tail that sell this thing because, while a full blown Rocket costume would be nice, for the less fabric savvy of fandom, this top is perfect for those that want to hit a con floor in style.
Of course, the real question is if a Groot version will include tree limb arms and the Drax one will just be a full blown muscle suit⦠we canât say we wouldnât be down for that. But, for now, this top will do just fine as we head into a new year full of nerdy events to attend.
What do you think of Her Universeâs new Rocket Raccoon top? Let us know in the comments below.
