Milo Thatch Cosplay Costumes
Though remarkably smart and traditionally bookish, Milo is an adventurer at heart. Not many people would have what it takes to risk journeying to Atlantis. That’s what makes Milo’s spirit so infectious. Audiences can relate to his heart for adventure despite contrasting appearances. This mix of scholar and explorer is evident in how Milo was designed by animators. His style reflects that of an academic with a few tweaks that make him look ready to set sail. To nail this perfectly-balanced look, you will need to wear a basic tank top paired with a pair of chino pants and a pair of glasses. The web belt, canvas leggings, and Chelsea boots are a little more specific but should be accessible at many stores.
Don’travel out on an expedition alone! Call on your friends to cosplay the rest of the crew: Princess Kida, Audrey Rocio Ramirez, Vinny Santorini, The Mole, Cookie, and Dr. Joshua Strongbear Sweet.
About Milo Thatch
Unlike the usual type of person you would expect to see on an expedition, Milo Thatch was never without a book on the journey to find Atlantis. This often made him the target of jokes and pranks among the crew. As a result he found it hard to connect and get along with other crew members. When they finally stumbled upon Atlantis, his love for knowledge, specifically linguistics, became a very valuable asset.
Milo was the only one able to communicate with the Atlanteans at first. After many challenges regarding the power source of the sunken city, the Heart of Atlantis, Milo is able to help save the future of the Atlantis. When the expedition is due to leave, Milo decides to stay, where he eventually marries Princess Kida and becomes the eleventh king of Atlantis. Milo Thatch is voiced by popular Back to the Future actor Michael J. Fox.
