Another week has gone by, and that means it’s time to admire some impressive cosplay. We’re counting the days until Dragon Con (just one week away!) and can’t wait to see what cosplayers bring to the costume-centric convention. Whether you’re still working on your Dragon Con costume, building props and armor for another outing, or just need something to get you inspired to make stuff, our round-up of cool cosplay might be the kick in the pants you need. This week’s Cosplay Friday features Merida, beat up Deadpool, Metal Gear REX, and more.
