You might have heard ofFirefall, Red 5 Studios’ upcoming Free-to-Play FPS, but what youmightnot have heard of is that said studio has gone off and cast an official cosplay team made up ofLee Reherman (maybe you’ve seen him as “Hawk” on American Gladiators?) who’s going to be dressing up as “Typhon” andCrystal Graziano who’s, um, pretty and will be walking around as “Mourningstar.”

Both will be accompanying Red 5 to future events throughout 2012, wearing costumes crafted bySteve Wangand his team. It’s hard to deny that the costumes themselves are nicely done, but am I the only one who thinks that this is a littletoomuch? Not so much the fact that they’ve createdTHAT, but really the huge deal Red 5 seem to be making over it.
