The problem with making power armor is that you have to make actual power armor, got it.

Sad to say I don't recognize as much as I used to.

Is that one gal wearing a shipwreck? Sea Giantess? And the gal in the gold and white outfit with the super cool light up effect... Human Priest?

Just so impressed.

I'm also not sure about that first one, but the latter's Chromie.

As far as I know, Anthony Le was the first person to make some amazing Iron Man costumes with moving mask and elevators. He also did a War Machine. You can find his work pretty easily, and I'm fairly sure he made his costume plans public, or at least described how he made his armors so others could make them too.

She's cosplaying Ellen Baker. Ellen Baker is a fictional tutor character featured in the 2016-2019 edition of New Horizon, a Japanese textbook that is widely used for English-language education in middle schools. Then someone posted a picture of her on Twitter, the internet immediately started making mountains of porn of her and they stopped using that textbook, probably because they don't want students trying to look up something related to her and being met with a wall of porn.

You know, when I was young, I wondered why villains in comic books, TV shows, and movies wanted to blow up the Earth. It's this. This right here.

Sombra's got such a cool design that I want to play as her immediately, despite her being a character in an FPS (so I won't see her anyway) that I honestly thought was kinda crap.

I shouldn't find it as weird as I do in a world where you can--within seconds--find lovingly-drawn images of anthropomorphized office supplies loving, but the thought that people went "Oh man that girl from my kid's gradeschool textbook is so hot, I'ma draw her loving a walrus" or whatever is just bizarre.

Also, the Esurance thing was amazing because you know they were completely blindsided by it. Imagine being the guy who has to go upper management and show them hundreds of interactive porno .swfs and myriad images of their mascot doing everything from eating a banana seductively to being gang raped by silverback gorillas wearing tiaras. That'd be a "bring the 'special' thermos" day for me.
