a bizarre trend


i have noticed a bizarre trend first hand. voice actors cosplaying. in my neck of the woods, there are a couple of fans who have taken it upon themselfs to dress like scott mcneil. the woman i talked to refered to herself as the scott mcneil fan distraction, among other titles like fan double, fan clone, and other titles i can't remember.

and here is another, this time a boy.
the first pic on the page - http://www.fansview.com/2005/ohayocon/oh14a0014.html

i wonder how weird it is for him to run into people who cosplay as him. an apparently, according to the woman i was talking about, she does this at tons of other cons he attends.

has anyone else see this type of cosplay??? i understand how easy it would be, scott seems to only wear sleeve-less flannel shirts or the black sleeve-less shirt with the 02 in red on the back, tight blue jeans, cowboy boots and the bent, fraying cowboy hat of his.

Another easy one: a girl could dress in a tiger-stripe bikini with green hair and horns and say she's actually cosplaying as Ippongi Bang. emoticon

Okay, she's a manga artist, rather than a voice actor, but hey. emoticon
