Sonic Cosplay

Here are a couple more images from DeviantART that we found from Cosplayer Vera-baby. We previously posted a picture of Vera as Princess Peach with a mushroom tattoo on her hand. Today Vera dresses up and poses in some computer generated backgrounds as Mario's console rival Sonic the Hedgehog.

Sonic the Hedgehog was introduced by Sega during the 16-bit era of video games as Sega's Genesis system went head to head against the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. Sonic was introduced to try to be a hip and cool mascot to attempt to sway kids over from Mario the mustachioed plumber's system.

Princess Peach Cosplay

We found this great picture of a Princess Peach Cosplayer on DeviantART. Since Princess Peach's last name is Toadstool, it would only make sense that she would have a mushroom tattoo on the palm of her hand, right?

Here's an interesting fact: Peach wasn't always known as Peach, at least not in North America. She was always known as Peach in Japan, but in North America she was known as Princess Toadstool from her introduction in Super Mario Bros. all the way up until Super Mario 64, when she signs the letter to Mario as Princess Toadstool (Peach).  Since then, she's become more known for her Peach name than her Toadstool name.

Lara Croft Cosplay

We recently found some images on DeviantART from a user by the name of misslaracroft (Tanya Sochivets) who likes to dress up as Lara Croft from the Tomb Raider series and takes pictures of herself. We thought that there were some fairly good cosplay pictures from Miss Lara Croft, so we decided to post them below for you.
