Unlike gundam-fans, most of us Macross-fans usually gets a hearty laugh at those trying to cosplay our favorite Macross-characters. They almost always are funny and wrong.

Not this time with the Chinese cosplayers. It seems like Macross-DYRL (along with Transformers) is really pretty big in China and a new chinese MW-member posted the pics of some the Macross-fandom when Haruhiko Mikimoto visited during a recent comic-festival. I imageshacked the pics and so here they are:

As I've said in the beginning, this is the very first time I ever got impressed and not get a hearty lol with the Macross cosplayers. /images/graemlins/cool.gif

heh, "I always knew there was something funny about Roy, I think he's hiding something from us"

But those are awesome, and I generally don't like cosplayers unless they are hot women.
