Is there anybody dressed as a hedge that this guy could practice on? Or maybe a huge block of ice he could sculpt into Power Girl or something?
19. Commander Riker
Sometimes simpler is better. At first glance that's one convincing Jonathan Frakes!
18. Ghostbusters
Who you gonna call? Whoever designed their awesome costumes and proton packs. Isn't Sony still looking for cast members for the new reboot?
17. Silver Surfer
This guy did a better job at making the Silver Surfer come to life than Fox did with Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer. Plus, that board should make it a hell of a lot easier to get around the big convention halls.
16. Khaleesi
Not pictured: the other two dragons, circling the Annaheim Convention Center, and her army of Unsullied, who are all waiting for autographs at the Marvel booth.
15. Powdered Toast Man
No clever quip will do this costume justice. High five, Powdered Toast Man!
14. Scott Snyder's Joker
There are literally hundreds of Jokers that these conventions, but this guy stands out in the crowd thanks to the sinister and horrific new look of the New 52 version of the clown prince of crime.
13. Dr. Doom And Iron Man
Since Bruce Banner is trying to lay low and avoid the crowds, Tony Stark had to find a new science bro to hang out with at the convention.
12. Bumblebee
At first glance, this looks like a convincing display or standee at the Transformers booth. Nope, that's a real costume, and an impressive one at that. Do you think this guy only talked to people via song clips from the radio?
11. Tank Girl
Her 1995 movie may have wound up being an absolute disaster, but luckily it led to some awesome and downright sexy cosplay opportunities.
