Check Out This Amputee Cosplayer's Legit Furiosa Prosthetic Arm

This awesome Furiosa cosplayer has a legit prosthetic arm.

Mad Max: Fury Road [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/tag/view/mad%20max%20fury%20road?os=%20mad%20max%20fury%20road] was pretty much the surprise hit of 2015, and Furiosa, the female lead, managed to outside Max himself in many of her scenes. The connected with a lot of people as a strong, well-written female, and really pulled the movie together.

Meet Laura [http://fictionability.tumblr.com/post/119604370947/my-reaction-to-mad-max-fury-road-and-the-utter], a cosplayer who just so happened to share the same amputation as Mad Max's Furiosa, leading to her pulling off a one-of-a-kind representation of the character during this year's MomoCon:



Pretty sweet right? But you know what would make this costume even sweeter? How about an actual prosthetic arm? Cue prop maker Msleeper [http://www.therpf.com/showthread.php?t=245288], who has always considered it a "dream job" of hers to build an actual prosthetic Terminator arm. So, after seeing Mad Max and meeting Laura, Msleeper just had to make her a bad-ass Furiosa arm.

Check out the arm in all of it's glory, as well as it attached to Laura in cosplay at Dragoncon:

Now that's cool!

Y'know, we always see people wanting more overweight characters so overweight people could cosplay as them, but no one thinks about characters with disabilities.

There is cosplaying your body type... but this is a whole new level.

Mad Max: Fury Road [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/tag/view/mad%20max%20fury%20road?os=%20mad%20max%20fury%20road] was pretty much the surprise hit of 2015 for those people who had never seen a Mad Max film before, and Furiosa, the female lead, managed to outshine Max himself in many of her scenes. This/She connected with a lot of people as a strong, well-written female, and this really helped to pull the movie together.

There, fixed that first paragraph up for you there. And yes, that was indeed a pretty sweet prosthetic, with amazing attention to detail.

So people with disabilities >people who are overweight. The hierarchy keeps changing.

Now i want to see a fat black amputee with Barretts machine gun arm.
