The LEGO Movie Wyldstyle Cosplay by SunlitEquinox

February 10, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

The LEGO Movie is the talk of the town right now and I was wondering when and if people were going to do cosplay of some of the movie characters. It looks like Flickr user SunlitEquinox is the first person that I’ve seen to do that with her Wyldstyle outfit. The whole outfit is not completed yet as the pants and shoes aren’t finished but the hoodie looks spot on. I’ll update this post as soon as the whole cosplay is done. Thanks BrickNerd and to everyone who emailed in about it.
