About

Billy Bolt is a New Mexico-based cosplayer, propmaker, and entertainer who describes himself as a “professional nerd”. Since 2013, Billy has been debuting elaborate foam and light-up cosplays at conventions, from Doctor Strange’s magic disks to Escanor’s “Rita” axe. He has also worked on several film and TV productions, including Coyote Vs Acme and special FX makeup on American Primeval, with propwork appearing at multiple Marvel red carpet premieres. Billy always strives to brighten someone else’s day, whether through comedy, paneling, cosplay, or a simple smile. He enjoys lending a helping hand to other cosplayers, providing crafting advice and emotional support to help create a more positive community.

Bolt Cosplay Supplies began in 2026, as a way to provide cosplayers with an easier and more accessible way to build clean, elaborate EVA foam props. While Bolt Cosplay Supplies is still in early phases, Billy is excited by the response from cosplayers so far. He looks forward to building out more products through the rest of the year.
