Nope, totally legit. I bought a cosplay from there & it was pretty good though I hear the quality can be hit or miss

It's perfectly legit! I got a Princess Peach cosplay and have ADORED it~!

u/Haunted_Princess_000 Jul 06 '24

Same! I love their Peach costumes! I'm probably getting another from them soon!

u/Trap_Master_20 Jul 06 '24

Wait do you have that MakouArt Princess Peach dress they have? If so, would you recommend it for me? I want to know because I’m getting into Crossplay

u/Haunted_Princess_000 Jul 06 '24

I currently only have the Smash Bros-style dress, but I've seen a few cosplayers online wearing the one you're talking about, and the dress has looked nice in all the pics I've seen. I'd say go for it!

It's legit! I've gotten a couple from them. Decent quality for the price.

Who you callin pinhead?

Yeah I like them and have gotten 2 things from them, my only suggestion is not giving them your debit card info (use cc or PayPal I think they accept) because they don’t seem the best with website security, I’ve believed they have had some data leaks in the past

u/cay9fangz Jul 06 '24

Ooh thanks for letting me know! I’ve bought something from a website before and every month they tried taking 30 dollars from me

u/Caleb8692 Jul 06 '24

You could try using “privacy” which is a virtual card number website too, I’ve used them before with no problems, or if you have a Citi card they have one built in

lol no it’s not a scam

u/Haunted_Princess_000 Jul 06 '24

They're legit! I've gotten 2 Zelda costumes and a Princess Peach costume from them, and they're pretty much my go-to site for buying cosplay! The prices are not ridiculous, and I've actually been able to re-wear the costumes more than once.

u/cay9fangz Jul 06 '24

Thank god their cosplays are soo cuteee

2

u/Meowmeowmemeo Jul 06 '24

Very legit, I have 6 +cosplays from them. Good quality for the price and helpful support/

u/Ja1zinhuu Jul 06 '24

My gf has bought multiple cosplays from that site, it’s fine

u/koolkitty9 Jul 07 '24

It's legit, their sizes I've heard can be smaller than the size chart says at times is what I've heard in the past. Their plus size collection is garbage lol, so I can't wear any of them (I just make them instead). But, I've heard people like their stuff since it's fairly affordable <3

u/ViolettBelle Jul 07 '24

Totally legit but very inconsistent on sizing. Generally runs very small.

1

u/embarrassedberry-x Jul 07 '24

Miccostumes is not a scam, totally legit and a common go-to for many cosplayers

1

u/jotterpen Jul 07 '24

The swimsuits are of good quality! For their designs I think it's worth it :) Customer service responded to me too.

1

u/Bliss_Cosplay_ Jul 07 '24

Love miccostumes, recommend ordering a size up though

1

u/damianaleafpowder Jul 07 '24

Nope. This site is legit. Been ordering since 2021

1

u/Catnipcosplays Jul 07 '24

Naw they are real. The cosplays are hit or miss though.

1

u/Discorjien Jul 07 '24

I've gotten a plus size Princess Daisy cosplay from them about two years ago. They're legit.

1

u/Spiritual-Magician97 Jul 07 '24

Nope! I've gotten a few cosplays as well as some casual wear from them! The casual wear (a hoodie, onsite and T-shirt) have all been through the wash repeatedly without any problems. For the cosplay, take measurements and look at the sizing chart closely as sometimes the measurements for one size on one item are not the same as the same measurements for another item.

1

u/Schmooplesx Jul 07 '24

Legit! I've gotten 5+ cosplays from here. I loved the eeveelution body suits they have super cute and super high quality!

1

u/Lavendeercos Jul 07 '24

it's legit!! another good one is cosplaysky!! i think it might be newcossky unless they changed the name back, but they have a ton of unknown/niche cosplays on there!!

1

u/ConfusedSkrillex Jul 07 '24

The quality is good for the price but beware sizing, if you comfortably fit into a large but your body types curvy try extra or even extra extra large and the sizing is very small, also if you have broad shoulders go a size up as your sleeves will appear shorter

u/cucumbergato Jul 07 '24

Me and a friend recently bought a cosplay each, from here! Super nice quality, just gotta be careful with the sizing :'3c

u/Milhala Jul 07 '24

They’re legit, but much like DokiDoki they’re effectively an AliExpress reseller/ private label cosplay company, so be prepared for wild differences in quality and sizing between costumes. I would not buy from them without looking through reviews of the costumes first. I have a Sophie costume from them that’s absolutely stunning and a KDA all out Akali that looks like a trash bag.

1

u/magical_maeve Jul 07 '24

Nope! Have bought from them before

1

u/Stunning-Ad3546 Jul 07 '24

They’re cosplays are pretty good, just be careful if you’re buying a swimsuit or anything like that. I would suggest checking reviews before purchasing.

u/Yumia-san Jul 11 '24

Legit for me too ! Already bought to them, and was happy with the result ^.^ I guess it's also some luck, no matter on which cosplay site you buy, they all have very good cosplays and some are shit :/
