There's a few bits in the cosplay box, such as Shazam, Batman 2022, classic Adam West style Batman, muscle chest Superman, Zorro (with sword), muscle chest Robin, and The Mandalorian, and classic Boba Fett, and Darth Maul, Darth Vader, and Obi Wan Kenobi from Star Wars, oh and for The Mandalorian I bought a "Grogu" (Baby Yoda) prop on eBay the other week.

What do you reckon guys?

Yep, went up to York in August 2020 dressed as Obi Wan (deliberately didn't shave for 2 weeks to go for the Ewan McGregor bearded look)

When we go down to Elsecar a fortnight on Sunday, should I stick around for the cosplay masquerade in the over 14 section (well I am quite a bit over 14 :D ) seeing as I have almost no chance of winning?

I'm considering The Mandalorian, which is a similar theme, with that Grogu thingy I bought on eBay last month.

Well for various reasons we didn't get to Elsecar last week, fortunately there's another con coming up next month on the 11th in Nottingham.

Thanks @LilMIssLarBear

And I'll probably wear Shazam on Sunday in Nottingham, well it's a change from the tried and tested Batman getup.

I have a Bat costume at Home that I bought on Amazon last night (been delivered a bit since apparently)

It's an actual Bat, not Batman.
