It's cosplay time

PAX East is happening this weekend in Boston. While it may be snowing outside, it's quite warm in the convention center, where thousands have gathered to check out some games, collect some swag, and, of course, show off some cosplay. Here's what we've found so far, and we'll update when we see more awesome costumed con-goers.

Want to check out even more cosplay pics? Check out our galleries from PAX East 2012 and San Diego Comic Con for more cool people in cool costumes.
