I came across this on Deviant Art. They seem to be French. It's not too often that you see a group of five, dressed up as the complete team -and all with helmets! This is a link to the gallery: http://nearcolasora.deviantart.com/gallery/41156853

Oui....

Wow!!!

is the Swan keeping her helmet off soi we can see the green wig? Great find though, it is rare indeed.

very interesting pic if I say so myself

Very interesting find LB. And it is quite interesting to see the helmets as well. I wonder where they got their costumes or if they made them (had them made.)

They look great! It looks like they all had their costumes made at the same place/by the same tailor. It looks like they won a prize in the costume contest for originality! http://nearcolasora.deviantart.com/gallery/41156853?offset=24#/d5ofem7 I love how the characters are 'Ken, Jo Ryu, Jinpei and Princesse'! Mix universes much?

There's even a pic in the gallery of Ken in combat, hehe.

They might have made the helmets themselves. It looks like they're lined with tin foil, and the slightly uneven surfaces of them make me think they were perhaps using papier mache, or some kind of modeling clay. http://nearcolasora.deviantart.com/gallery/41156853#/d5ofdom That is funny, that she's "Princesse" instead of Jun. Guessing she likes Bataille des Planetes better than Gatchaman?

Great find, LB, and many thanks for sharing! I agree that it's a rare find to find all the team members in costumes altogether! I couldn't help noticing the serious looks on their faces! I would have been giggling, instead, whilst the photo is being taken!

I agree, Marie! They're all so serious! I guess fighting Galactor is no laughing matter.

If I understand it correctly, a key part of cosplay is having some standard poses/actions/expressions that match the character of your costume. I'm sure those were their "game faces" for pictures.

Is the Joe guy sleeping, or at least his eyeballs closed.... can't quite tell

Maybe mixing series too. Just noticed now that "Ryu" there has his Gatch II weapon: But it sure looks like Ken has his Gatch I boomerang, not his Gatch II "bird saucer."
