Mobile Suit Gundam Girl

mobile suit gundam girl by krizelle uychincoFirst seen in Anime Quest 2001, this Gundam Girl was portrayed by one of the many well known cosplayers in the Philippines.

Her name is Krizelle Uychinco. One could arguably say that she became famous because of this very cosplay, featured even in Culture Crash, the Philippine's premier comic magazine. Leandro Polidario is the creator of the costume who used sheet foam rubber instead of cardboard for the costume to be strong and durable enough for Krizelle to wear.

Cool looking cosplay isn't it? And very unique. I doubt there are a lot of people who've attempted this cosplay. I'm just glad I was able to find a photo of her! Awesome job, Krizelle! And great job to Leandro too for making the costume!
