THE COSPLAY FLAIR IS HERE, THIS IS A HISTORICAL MOMENT SO HAVE ALL MY NINJAGO COSPLAYS FROM FIRST TO LAST ( 2020-2025 )
A passionate LEGO NINJAGO fan celebrates the arrival of the new cosplay flair by sharing a comprehensive retrospective of their NINJAGO cosplay journey spanning from January 2020 through December 2025. The collection highlights the incredible evolution from simple closet costumes to fully handcrafted, award-winning builds.
The timeline kicks off on January 21, 2020, with a closet cosplay of Possessed Lloyd, quickly followed by a Morro closet cosplay in April 2020 featuring dyed hair and an old ninja suit. Over the years, the costumes grew increasingly sophisticated, transitioning to self-made components for a Ninjago Fanzine in late 2020 and a convention-ready Kid Morro debut at Pandakon in September or October 2022. The progression also features closet interpretations of Beatrix and Lloyd in 2023, alongside the creator's first EVA foam build—The Crystal King—which earned an honorary mention at Pandakon 2023. Recent highlights include a mostly self-made Rebooted Overlord for Pandakon 2024 and a zero-budget Rox closet cosplay in early 2025.
The retrospective culminates in a self-made Rox cosplay created for Pandakon 2025 and showcased at Zagreb Games Week 2025, where the costume earned an award from a judge who happens to be one of the creator's personal cosplay idols. The artist notes that all photo editing was done personally using Photoshop and Clip Studio Paint without any AI assistance. Out of four fully self-made cosplays, the character lineup includes Kid Morro (who only appears in flashbacks), two different editions of the Overlord, and Rox.
This impressive 5-year timeline demonstrates the incredible dedication found within the LEGO community, extending far beyond the building blocks themselves. For fans looking to organize their own creative projects, custom displays, or crafting supplies, keeping a LEGO storage box on hand helps keep everything neat and accessible.
