Wellington set the Armageddon cosplay bar high for the year during their expo over Easter weekend. Dunn identified a few main characters that could pop up this year: Disney princesses, Star Wars characters, anime characters (from shows such as Attack on Titan, Lovelive! and Dragonball Z), superheroes, video game characters (think fantasy characters or sci-fi shooters), and tv show characters – Game of Thrones is predicted to be a popular one in that category. DAVID WALKER/STUFF Some Star Wars characters may be easy to identify, like this Stormtrooper, but for others the tip is to look out for futuristic gear and muted colours. Video game characters would generally look a lot more "real-world".
