All hail the Strange Kigurumi Army, whose name suggests several things: these grown men who dress up as female anime characters at least know that they are koo-koo-roo, and becoming increasingly militant is now an option.
Seems that some of their ranks, Ruri-iro Tamatebako-san and affiliated garage kit maker FiledφField, popped up in some of the Wonderfest pics I posted below. They liked the coverage , linked to me, now I link back in return. And if you want to go to war...they'll take you to war.
Ten years ago this night on Tokyo Channel 12; the failing light of Yom Kippur; the sets come on with an emergency broadcast; there shall be a day of atonement: it shall be an holy convocation unto you; and ye shall afflict your souls, and offer an offering made by fire.
But the first kigurumer I ever met was Misato Katsuragi, from the face back to the mask.

He must know something about this world that we don't.
