So, I suppose that's about it right now.

It will probably be just a little bit more of the same for September, but I'm really excited for October!  I'll be attending Anime Weekend Atlanta 2019, so if I see you and hand you a business card, tell me if I'm doing a good job with the site.

Until next time...

Summer vacation is over for some of you, but that doesn't mean the fun is over, yet!

For the beginning of the month of August, we introduce to you Leontha, the German/Polish cosplay that tries to bring her brand of beauty to the cosplay world!

I was very fortunate to feature Leontha, as she was dealing with many personal issues.  Like a true Up and Coming Cosplayer, she was not shy, and shared her experiences with us in her interview.

She also delighted us with a very in depth pictorial, that got very unexpectedly spicy!

We are not going to end the Up and Coming Cosplayer series until the end of October, but we intend to go out with a bang with an unprecedented FOUR cosplayers!  We also intend to have Halloween themed articles for the fun it as well!

I want to thank you all so much for sticking around, and ask that you continue to stay tuned to All Cool Things™.

Hey Cool Kids!

This week is bound to be filled with great sensations!  Barbeque smells waft around you!  Snaps, pops, and explosions of fireworks will fill the night sky with echoes and glares in the darkness.  Enjoy all of these things with family, friends, and strangers.  Enjoy them as if you don't know when it can end, because we don't.

Well, as you can see, we have a very talented cosplayer for you.  This Up and Coming Cosplayer is Miniilay, and she's a wiz when it comes to armour builds and props.  Miniilay also has quite a gothique streak to her modeling.

Also, I'm pretty sure that July will be our last Up and Coming Cosplayer month.  Since I originally wanted to try it out for two seasons, this is about where it should end.

I would like to thank all of the talented cosplayers that participated, and urge that none of you be strangers.

I think I have gained a few good acquaintances out of this, and I learned a lot from all of you.

I hope everyone enjoys these last Up and Coming Cosplayers, and stay tuned to see what we come up with, next!

June's starting Up and Coming Cosplayer is MirCosplay.  MirCosplay may be a geek and cosplayer from Spain, but she is no stranger to The States and our pop culture!

In our interview with her we find out how she learned English and American Slang so well.  We also find out what she thinks about lewd and boudoir shoots, and how they relate to her cosplay!

Learn all of this and more!

I'm sure everyone watched Game of Thrones, last night.  Don't worry, I'm not going to talk about it.  'Just the cosplay party that Battle & Brew had Saturday night. 

Cosplayers came dressed as characters from Game of Thrones for fun and prizes.  Two of the cosplayers were Dirty Z Cosplay as King Baratheon, and Caldwell Cosplay as Jon Snow.  In my opinion, they had the best costumes, GoT isn't the only thing on my mind!

It's Akiza Cosplay, of course!  Akiza Cosplay is our Up and Coming Cosplayer for the end of April.  She's not quite as seasoned as the other cosplayers we've featured, but she has great respect and potential.

Happy Spring Break!  As we celebrate the change of seasons with travel, rest, and relaxation, All Cool Things™ introduces Neverdreamchild!

Neverdreamchild is one of the most unique cosplayers we have had the pleasure to meet, and her talents will easily become apparent.

If you like what you see, please let her know, because we need more cosplayers like Neverdreamchild getting exposure, because we need all kinds of cosplayers.  

We also need prospective cosplayers to know that there are all types of cosplayers to be.

As always, All Cool Things™ thanks you for your support and wishes you a safe and Happy Spring Break.

Finding great cosplayers was an obvious pleasure of starting Up and Coming Cosplayers.  Every now and then I get the unexpected surprise of finding unique cosplayers that not only share a bit of themselves, but by doing so they share their art and make it seem new.  Having said that, this is Cree Nicole.

Monday:  Cosplayer Score Card

Wednesday:  Interview

Friday:  Pictorial

March is going to be a good month.

                                                                           -HERETICPRIME

We finish February's Up and Coming Cosplayers with Kimikokoro, a talented and modest young lady with a love for makeup effects.

Get to know Kimikokoro this Monday by reviewing her Cosplayer Score Card.  Wednesday you can get to know her better by reading her interview.  And lastly on Friday, take a look at her pictorial, but try not to get your heart broken by all of that concentrated kawaii!

Yes!  One of the reasons that the colonies that would become the USA broke ties with England was the concept that a person should be considered innocent until proven guilty by a jury of her/his peers, and only after being able to face and address her/his accusers in a court of law.  

However, it appears that we live in a time where certain issues are so taboo, that at the risk of appearing insensitive to the victim, someone must be punished, even if there is a question of there even being a victim.

I am a member of a Facebook group for people that run anime conventions (because of my brief time with AniBlaze), and somebody wrote a post about Vic Mignogna that put the group in a froth.  All I asked was if anyone had any proof that Vic Mignogna did 1/10 of what people in the group had alleged.  Were there any police reports or records of investigations; no one could provide anything.  Despite this fact, the vast majority of people in the group began to treat me as if I was an advocate of rape and molestation.

Why did they treat me this way:  Because I asked for facts and proof.  'Because I said that before we try to destroy a man's well-being, reputation, and ability to support himself and his family, we'd better be sure that he deserves it, or at least did the things that he is alleged of.

As I watched a few people echo similar reasoning of mine, it became apparent that having laws and punishment without due process and logic could not only become tyrannical, but a tool for censorship.  Even the talk of reason could be equated with siding with rapists.    'Asking for evidence, proof, or explanation the same as not believing the victim.

I think we all want bad people to get what they deserve, and we all want victims to be made whole, but when we punish good people, they become the victims, and we become the villains.  Let's try to remember that before we cast premature judgement on each other.

-HERETICPRIME

If you follow cosplayers, then I'm sure you know just who this is...It's FeistyVee!

She was was one of the cosplayers that made me want to start this series of Up and Coming Cosplayers!  She's talented.  She's hard working.  She's beautiful.  Lastly, she's got charisma and loves to share with her audience. 

 Yes, FeistyVee is a high profile cosplayer positioned for cosplay celebrityhood.  You will get to know her now with us, and let me tell you:  I've seen some of her interviews with other folks and in my humble opinion, you should read all of theirs first and then read ours, because she really shares herself with us.

Wanna know who she loves to work with?  Wanna know what stokes her fire when she's not cosplaying?  Wanna know what it takes to get her to respond to you on social media?  Well, you better stay tuned to us this week and read her interviews!  Then, if that's not enough, you know what happens Friday...Yup...FeistyVee gives it up to us in a pictorial featuring exclusive pictures lent to All Cool Things™.

I wanted to take this time to first wish you a Happy New Year!  I wish the best of your past becomes the worst of your future!

Secondly, I wanted to let you know that the Up and Coming Cosplayer articles start today!  Okay, it's not exactly January, but to keep things on schedule, we are publishing the first article featuring the lovely, fit, and very talented AlliZ Cosplay!

This also gives me an opportunity to inform everyone how the cosplayers will hence be featured.  On the first week of the month we will feature the first cosplayer of that month.  That Monday will be for her/his Cosplayer Score Card; an exclusive picture and some general questions the average person would like to know about all cosplayers.  The Wednesday after will be for the interview; more specific questions, as well as even more exclusive pictures never shared on social media.  The Friday after that will be a pictorial article with nothing but pictures that have never been before been shared to the public.  In short:   new cosplayers you will get to know, and pictures that they haven't even shared with their followers!

You do not have to be a member of the site to read these articles, but in the future, we may limit any special content to members.  As it has always been, membership is free.  You only have to sign up, and as of 2018 members still get a 10% off code, up from the 5% we previously offered!

Well, I guess that's about it for us this year.  Please enjoy the premiere of AlliZ Cosplay, and we'll see you again for more in the upcoming year!

-HERETICPRIME

The pictures are here to serve as two very important reminders to you:  1) As we celebrate the Holiday Season for all of the many customs that take place this time of year, I would like to single one out that has been near and dear to me my whole life:  Christmas!  It's almost here!  2) Sometime very soon Santa is going to deliver some cosplay goodness with an interview with Evenink Cosplay!

That's right!  Originally, Evenink Cosplay was going to be a part of our Up and Coming Cosplayers series, but she's already an established phenom in her own rights with the skills to be one of the truly greats, so we went ahead and gave her her own article...Who am I kidding!  We were blessed by her to be granted it!

Just as a reminder, I am still putting the pieces together for the first few months' cosplayers.  If you want to be a part of the Up and Coming Cosplayers for 2019, it's not too late!  In fact it's far from it!

As a reminder, we just need anywhere from 12-30 pictures that have not been published or shared with the public at large, and we need to be able to exclusively share them for at least a month after your articles have been published.  After that, share away!  You will also have two short interviews.  On will be in the form of a cosplayer checklist.  The other will be a short proper interview from 10-15 questions.  'Just enough coverage to let the good folks know you and grab you some new followers or patrons.

Readers/Visitors, we're counting on you to share our articles and help our Up and Coming Cosplayers reach the masses!  I promise you, you won't be disappointed in the talent we've got in store for you!

And with that, we at All Cool Things™ would like to once again wish you Happy Holidays, and Merry Christmas!

-HERETICPRIME

All Cool Things™ will be publishing a new series of articles of up and coming cosplayers that will consist of an interview to get to know her or him, and a pictorial of images that you cannot find anywhere else at that time, because we will get them first!

If you are not a cosplayer, but you know someone that you think would enjoy and appreciate the exposure, please point her or him in our direction or drop us a link to their page.

Once again, we hope that you all are enjoying the Holiday Season, and appreciate your support and fellowship!

-HERETICPRIME

How is everyone?  I know that we are all still trying to move on since the passing of Stan Lee, last week.  Just remember that it is still the Holiday Season, and that with Thanksgiving coming up this week, we should try to focus on the people and things we still have in our lives, and cherishing them while we are all still here.

Eveille Cosplay was kind enough to grace us with an interview.  She opens up on her views on costuming and cosplaying, and how they affect her photography and career.

Also, if you're in the Conyers area of Georgia in Early December, please come and say hi to us at the Conyers Toy & Comic Book Show on December 2, 2018.  Not only will we be vending, but we will be looking for new writers and staff for future engagements.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving everyone!  Thank you for your years of support, and never hesitate to reach out to us in the years to come!

So...we just found out that our Member software has been messed up for some time, and that folks that may have been trying to apply for free membership with the site probably have not been able to...'Sorry..?

Yeah...so All Cool Things™ is doing two things:  1) We have opened all of our articles to the public.  If you want to go back and see those steamy pictures of MomoKun Cosplay, you can now.  If you want to read any of the bonus interview articles, you can now.  2) If ask us for the coupon code for 10% off purchases, we'll give it to you.  That's right.  All you have to do is go to Cool Things to Buy and read our update information.  It's that simple.

We know that this doesn't make up for all of the frustration you might have felt, but we hope you see this as a good start.  If there is anything else that we can do, please feel free to contact us.

Thank you for your continued support, and once again, but more seriously:  We are very sorry.

More pictures will be available soon on our social media.  Perhaps we'll even bring back our photo gallery and put some pics up there, as well.

Stay tuned for more interviews in the future, as well as updates to our site!

You might not know this, but the owner is a huge True Believer and retired comic book collector.  In fact, I was still collecting during the original Infinity Gauntlet storyline that Avengers:  Infinity Wars would get inspiration from.

I know that a lot of people are asking questions about how this MCU story arc is going to end, and a lot of people also have their ideas.  Well, we decided to throw our hats into the ring and say what I thought would be a cool way for it to end.

We don't have any inside knowledge, so there are no spoilers accept for movies that have already come out, and if you haven't seen most of the movies mentioned, then you probably don't care anyway.  If you do care, feel free to read our article >>>>HERE<<<<. 

Like most articles, you don't have to be a member to read it, but it still pays to join the site for free to see all of the hidden and bonus articles, and receive 10% of all purchases from the site.

As said before, we would be putting up some bonus pics we found up and around the internet that were a tad spicy to be in the original article.  If you're a bit on the prudish side, you now have fair warning!

Also as said before, this is for MEMBERS ONLY, so if you want to see them, just join the site.  It's free and easy, plus you get a coupon code for 10% off all future purchases.  Who knows how long we'll keep that up?

To join, just look to the right at the tab for registration.  Then use the same tab to sign in from now on.  To see the article click >>>HERE<<< or on the pic!

What are the chances of two main articles with MomoKun?  She's fallen into a bad media patch lately.  I'm sure you know what I'm talking about and seen several videos, articles, and/or posts about it by now.  You're probably also getting tired of them also.  Well, don't worry.  We didn't write that kind of article about her.

Instead, I wanted to shine a different kind of light on MomoKun.  Should she be held responsible for her actions?  Yes.  Should rules of personal space be consistent regardless of gender?  Perhaps.  Have some of us overreacted to this?  Should we cut MomoKun a little slack?  Can she recover from this?  Those are the three questions that we look at in our latest article,  "Have We Crucified MomoKun or Have Her Chickens Finally Come Home to Roost?"

Take a look.  Read it a few times.  Talk about it.  Let us know what you think.  I'm also thinking about putting up a bonus spread of some pictures of MomoKun that I found interesting and that fans will love.  Oh, and it's for members only, so go ahead and join up if you want to see them.  It's free and takes almost no time at all!  What do you have to lose?

'Made you look!

Well, you know what they say:  "Sex sells!" However, we have a better reason than that to have a smoking hot picture of Momokun on this page update.  She is actually one of the cosplayers that we talk about in our latest article.

What's the topic?  It's whether Patreon is finally showing the first signs of casualties in cosplay.

Some might not realise it, but I have noticed an overall decline in spirits and genuine cosplay in the community, and I think it may be due to Patreon.

It could be a case of me seeing that I may subconsciously want to see, because as some of you may know, I have never been a fan of the sweeping trend of cosplayers resorting to Patreon to help support them.  I've listed the reasons before in past articles, so I'm not about to bore you or fill this update with them.

What I haven't done, or been able to do before, is give somewhat tangible examples of what I call "Patreon Rash" on the cosplay community.

If you're bored, or have a good 10 minutes to spare, I beseech you to check out our latest article, "Is Patreon Good for the Art of Cosplay?"

Thanks for stopping by!

So as a part of our new direction of increasing our scope into reviews of products and services, All Cool Things™ will be reviewing a vacation gifted to us by an agent from TraVerus Global.

We will be reviewing the redemption of this in all parts, and everything that we went through in the process.

Stay tuned and check out our periodical reviews of TraVerus Global in our "Take It or Leave It" in "Stuff."

As mentioned before, here is the article about the new Victrix Pro AF™ANC!

Preorders are being taken now, and including goodies that will not be available for free later!

We at All Cool Things™ were happy to have the opportunity to attend Final Round 2018 and witness the largest Southeastern Fighting Game Tournament in the USA!

For those that do not know, Final Round is an annual international EVO affiliated tournament that is streamed live all over the world.

Heavy hitting sponsors such as Capcom and Bandai Namco show up in full effect to share goodies from the past, as well as for the future, such as the Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection and Soulcalibur VI, which were both on hand for unlimited play!

Final Round is beginning to embrace cosplay as an aspect of their tournament and is definitely beginning to have a convention-esque vibe to it!  There was a cosplay contest with 11 contestants, but I'm sure that by next year, it will feel more like a full cosplay event, just based on the buzz and response of this one.  Hershey Kissu, all the way from Canada came to compete in the cosplay contest as Morrigan from Darkstalkers!

We were also able to meet some great artists such as Mike Bedsole and Crystal Aura Wilson, as well as folks from Vicious Violet Productions.

Navz from Victrix Gaming was there, and we got to try out what could be the next big thing in professional gaming:  the Victrix PRO AF!  These professional grade headsets come complete with hybrid noise cancellation and patented trademark microphone technologies that were exclusive and military grade!

Who knows, but with some more guidance and word of mouth, Final Round could become something to rival Anime Weekend Atlanta and Momocom.  'Maybe it will even take Dragon Con by the tail..?

Wow!  Dust off the cobwebs!  Sorry for the inactivity.  Hopefully that is over!

Please check out the "Take It or Leave It" under our "Stuff" heading.  We have a brand new interview with Neverending Dreamz.  In case you've been under a rock (like us) he is an up and coming cosplayer and master of the keyblade!

Also, for the first time ever, we have bonus material for members of the site, only!  Yup, "Membership has its privileges."

October 15, 2016 marked a great moment in Georgia Convention history as AniBlaze officially completed their first convention!

It was somewhat impromtu, to test the waters and get the word out about AniBlaze, but was a success nonetheless!

Please help support AniBlaze by donating to our GoFundMe and Sharing our GoFundMe, as well.

There are some handsome rewards for donating, plus the added satisfaction and pride in contributing to the type of Anime and Fan Convention that you would want to see made!

Also, please Like us on Facebook!

This GoFundMe has been terminated!  Thanks for all of your support!

Hey Cool Kids!

We just wanted to announce that Atlanta has a new convention in the works, and it's AniBlaze Anime & Fan Convention!

Some of you might have heard about this convention, but most of you probably haven't.  In any case, I'll give you a little background to introduce you and to clear the air on anything you might have heard.

Originally, AniBlaze was to take place in 2016, in March.  It had a decent lineup, especially for a year one con, but due hotel issues, was unable to take place.  In an attempt to please all of the people, AniBlaze attempted to postpone it until early May.  Due to factors including original guests not being able to reschedule, committee chairs and other staff relocating, and close proximity to MomoCon's date, AniBlaze had to cancel that date.

Since then the CEOs of both AniBlaze LLC and Otaku no Baka, LLC have partnered up to form the new executive management team at AniBlaze LLC.  This shall reestablish and provide constant stability for AniBlaze, and ensure a convention experience that will open a new door for fandoms in Atlanta that want an intimate convention experience again, and something to do locally and in Spring.

AniBlaze will be having a mini-con on October 15 at the Sheraton Suites Galleria-Atlanta, across from the Cobb Galleria Centre.  (Yes, the same Sheraton also affiliated with Anime Weekend Atlanta!) It will be to formally introduce itself to the public and give a taste of what's to come in March of 2017, which will be the first large annual convention.

At this moment, AniBlaze is accepting inquiries and requests for those that want to vend in the vendors' and artists' areas.  Vendor spots will be $50 per 10 X 10 booth space, and can purchase multiples for extended space.  Artist spots will be $30 for a table, but artists may purchase a vendor spot if they so desire.  However, not only is area limited, but vendor spaces bought by businesses will be limited by product/service genre to maintain a fun variety goods and services and healthy and limited competition amongst vendors.  The vending area will be open from 9 AM to 5 PM.

AniBlaze is also accepting inquiries and requests for people that may want to speak, run panels, or be celebrity guests.   We are deciding if we will have a program book, and in the case we do, advertising applications will be up, as well.  (Talk to us about product and service donations in lieu of monetary advertising payment, as well.)

Pre-registration forms are being prepared as you read this and should be up on the main AniBlaze site no later than July 29, 2016 for attendance, vending, speaking, panel submission, and celebrity guest appearances.  Pre-registration forms for the March 2017 even shall also be made available SOON.

For new information keep up with AniBlaze's official website, All Cool Things™, and our many social media sites.

Battle & Brew hosted another one of their Cosplay Nights on Saturday, March 12, 2016, and All Cool Things™ was there.

There were lots of cosplayers there and the atmosphere was very light and jovial, with people playing games, dining in, mingling at the bar, and even playing tabletop games in the tabletop area.

There were some serious cosplayers, but a good number of them were hobbyists as well.

Something else of note, just like any well-trained Pokémon, the menu for Battle & Brew has evolved.  I was sad to see some items leave, but I think a lot of folks will be very happy to see the new additions.

Feel free to browse our Gallery to view our pictures from Cartoon Cosplay Night.

Stay tuned to your "Personal Hub for All Cool Things since 2011" for more real geekery.

I'll keep it short and sweet, this year.

Thanks to all of you that come and put your feet up and sat a spell.

Thanks to all the cool people that respond and give their blessings to be featured here.

Thanks to all the partners and friends.

Thanks to you for reading this today.

I hope to see all of you next year, so stay safe this Holiday Season!

The Website will be closed from Thursday, September 24, 2015 - Monday, September 28, 2015.  We will be attending Anime Weekend Atlanta.  All orders made after Wednesday, September 23, 2015 will be processed on Tuesday, September 29, 2015.  Business and processing will also re-ensue, as usual, on Tuesday, September 29, 2015.  Thank you for your patience and understanding, in advance.

What?  You didn't think we were closing for good, did you? 

If you haven't made it to the new location for Battle and Brew, yet, then I can give you one great new reason to:  On a soon to be announced Trivia Night Wednesday, All Cool Things™ will be giving away a fully articulated 18 inch Cyberdyne Series 101 T-800 Terminator Endoskeleton, made by NECA, the masters of movie reproduction collectibles!  This is to celebrate the theatrical release of "Terminator Genisys."

This item is discontinued and highly collectible!

Presenting it will be the lovely and very talented costumer and cosplayer, J Cosplay!

She will appear for pictures and autographs an hour before Trivia Night takes place, so come on in early!

We are hoping that this will be the start of a long partnership with the coolest restaurant we know of, and we like to think that we know a little bit about what's cool, here at All Cool Things™.

Feel free to browse our Gallery to view our pictures from Trivia Night.

'Just to tell you a little bit more about J Cosplay, she is an otaku and gamer.  Although she does not like fighting games, ("Nah, I suck at fighting games.") she loves Cammy White.

She is an avid con attender, going to local cons such as MomoCon,  Anime Weekend Atlanta, and of course, Dragon Con, so if you think you have seen her there, you probably did!

She has been interviewed and covered by industry publications like Nerdcaliber and the French blog "Daily Héros."

J Cosplay is also an All Cool Things™ partner, and one to watch on the cosplay scene!

Well, MomoCon starts this Thursday for the first time, both as a four day event, and at the World Congress Center!

I had planned to go last year, and had my ducks all in a row, but real life came a-knockin,' and I had to make some hard decisions.

For all of you fine otaku, comic, sci-fi, and fantasy geeks that do go, please be safe and make this premiere such an event, that the move to it's new location is filled to the brim.

Also, give Jess and her hubby a hug for me!

Halloween is almost here, again, and I get to enjoy one of my favourite holidays once more!

Why do I love Halloween so much?  It is the one time of the year that we allow ourselves, and each other, not to be the people we want to be, but ANYTHING we want to be!  In fact, it goes even further than that!  We can even take something that scares us out of our wits, and become it!  How is THAT for empowerment?

When else can a person be a pirate, ninja, caveman, or cosmic intergalactic being? 'Halloween...and when you cosplay!  Yes!  Think about it!  When we cosplay, it's like carrying a piece of Halloween with us wherever we go, and when we go to conventions, we might as well be in the Land of Halloween!  (Sometimes you even see Jack Skeleton!)

Well, not to beat you over the head with all of the LED stuff that you can get to make your costumes or keep your kids visible and safe with as they trick or treat, *cough, cough* I did want to share a letter that a mother wrote to us about the site, so please take a look.

Thanks to all of you that enjoy the site.  THIS is why WE do it!:

Hi there,

I wanted to send you a 'thank you' for your webpage (https://www.allcoolthings.net/apps/links/). I am sewing a costume for my daughter Lauren for Halloween and we were looking online together for ideas. I had no idea what cosplay even was until today - thanks for the information and great ideas, it's been a great help!

She also found another great resource that was helpful for people like me who didn't fully understand cosplay and everything about it! The article is "Costume Play: All About Cosplay" - http://www.halloweenexpress.com/costume-play-all-about-cosplay.php

Would you mind including the article on your page for me? I thought that it would fit in well with your page, and Lauren will be happy to hear that you liked her information! Let me know if you get the chance to update - and thanks again for the great website!

Have a great day, 

-Joan

Well, it's that time of year again!  Everyone laughs a little harder.  People smile a little bit brighter, and we all hope somebody gets us the thing that we would feel too guilty to get for ourselves!

Yup!  That's what Christmas is now, unless you have kids, and then it's trying to make their morning on the 25th of December as magical as you remember yours.

Thankfully, for you, whether it's the first reason or the latter, you can make all your wishes come true at All Cool Things™!

Is there something big that you want your friend or sibling to get you?  Well, if they haven't gotten the hint and gotten you something big for Christmas, yet, then it's up to you to bite the bullet and get them something awesome first, like one of our limited edition Terminator 2 T-800 Endoskeleton 18 Inch Figures.  Are they more of a cosplayer, or looking to start?  Well, try one of our cosplays, like our Premium Ichigo Kurosaki/Lieutenant Uniform; You will NOT find a better quality "Bleach" cosplay on the web.  You can't go wrong with that!

Any of the things I've already listed could brighten up your child's Christmas Morning, but don't discount the power of some inexpensive and extremely fun LED gifts!  How cool would it be to wake up to the sound of your kids clashing their Multicoloured FX Sabers for only $10 a piece!  Or maybe make them galactic peacekeepers in the Green Lantern Corps with their very own light up Green Lantern Rings!  The possibilities are endless.

Oh, and we haven't forgotten about you, either!  Maybe you can get something for yourself.  *wink, wink* We have some great Sexy Cosplay that you and your loved one can enjoy!

So no matter what the time, rhyme, reason, or season, we at All Cool Things™ wish you and yours the best this holiday season!
