Animal Crossing cosplayer gets dapper as the infamous Raymond Nintendo \/ Instagram @fakenerdboyPopular cosplayer \u2018FakeNerdBoy\u2019 has stunningly replicated one of Animal Crossing\u2019s most popular characters: the infamous Raymond. As the legendary Jessica Nigri\u2019s boyfriend, Ryan \u2018FakeNerdBoy\u2019 Brandt is no stranger to cosplay. And, fittingly, he has now decided to bring his costuming talents to one of the world\u2019s newest celebrities. While legions of fans fawn over his girlfriend, FakeNerdBoy has opted to impersonate Animal Crossing\u2019s Raymond, whose own masses of fans have completely destabilized the game\u2019s economy. https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B9gF2BVAjTB\/ Raymond is an international superstar. The grey cat has heterochromia, boxy glasses and a sharp outfit primed for Wall Street (if he wasn\u2019t busy being transported around from island to island). On nook.market, one of the internet\u2019s most popular marketplaces for Animal Crossing items and villagers, Raymond is as coveted as can be. He is the site\u2019s \u201cmost wished for\u201d villager and, with just six sellers at the time of this writing, costs 800 Nooks Miles Tickets, on average. On the cheaper end of the game\u2019s economy, that equates to nearly 10 million bells. Or, if you\u2019re lazy, you can just spend real money to buy tickets on Ebay. With Raymond\u2019s snappy attire, signature tuft of blond hair and some nifty contacts, FakeNerdBoy nails the cat\u2019s default look. https:\/\/twitter.com\/FakeNerdBoy\/status\/1256015518739206144 Our only complaint: there is a tad too much smiling. Raymond is known, and loved, for being a smug, smarmy character\u2014the only smug cat in the game\u2019s history. Part of the feline\u2019s charm is that his hipster glasses and uppity ensemble are paired with a matching personality: polite, knowledgeable and\u2026a little egotistical. For FakeNerdBoy to get full extra credit on this look, we\u2019d need him to lean away from the joviality and toward the poised reality of the intellectual side of life. Maybe he could hold a tea cup, daintily, in one picture. Maybe a book in another. Oh, maybe he could be looking down disdainfully at someone whose elbows were on the table? Just spitballing some ideas here. This ones for yall raymond likers #AnimalCrossing #ACNH #NintendoSwitch pic.twitter.com\/ht5nr2BrDG \u2014 julia filet mignon \ud83c\udf35 (@juibe) March 30, 2020 It really seems like Raymond only gets cheery once he\u2019s offered an outfit he surprisingly adores: the maid dress. But with the vest, tie, mismatched eyes and pointed ears\u2014this cosplay hits every mark for aesthetics. We\u2019ll grade it at a full 800 Nook Mile Tickets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
