Jury
Raahega
Prizmatec
Raahega, the talented Swiss cosplayer and recipient of numerous awards, will be joining Prizmatec as a judge for the cosplay contest. She embarked on her cosplay journey in 2016 and has been fascinated by wings ever since. It’s hardly surprising that virtually every cosplay she creates incorporates wings. She relishes pushing the limits of both cosplay and wings themselves. Having already brought to life four elaborate winged costumes, she is eagerly pursuing her next major endeavor (inevitably involving wings, of course)!
The group was formed in 2012 on a whim, following the decision of Riccardo and Gaetano, after witnessing a cosplay competition. Inspired by what they saw, they decided to try their hand at creating their first armor: War Machine from the film Iron Man 2. Since that day, this hobby has taken root in their hearts. With the support of their entire family, the Prizmatec members began crafting incredible armor and showcasing their skills on stage in various Cosplay Contests, bringing home countless victories. In other words, the costumes that the Prizmatec members have managed to create are diverse, extraordinary, and will leave you in awe!
Swiss Cosplay League
This year again, there will be the opportunity to pactecipate in the selection of the best cosplayer. The winner will participate in the Swiss Cosplay League final at Polymanga 2024, with a money prize of CHF 3,500.
The event organizers will cover transportation and hotel expenses.
