Proof That Even the Most Obscure Characters Get Cosplayed
Every character, no matter how much time they have in a book, comic, or on-screen story, is an option for cosplay. If they don’t appear frequently, getting reference material can be more difficult, but it’s not impossible. Case in point: Redditor memphiz88 made a costume inspired by a character in The Force Awakens. If you blink, you’ll miss seeing Constable Zuvio on Jakku. The Star Wars alien was teased ahead of the film and featured in toys, but his role ended up being very small. Action figures of Zuvio are still warming pegs, which makes researching the red and green ensemble easier. This is the only cosplay I’ve seen of Zuvio so far.
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, or even use Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for MakeCode, CircuitPython, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
