It's time you prepared yourself to see what might be one of this year's cutest cosplays. A Star Wars savvy dad did what many wish they could and dressed up his kid as a tiny Jedi riding a Tauntaun. It's almost too cute for words.

Clint Chase decided to make his son the set-accurate Tauntaun cosplay by hand and will undoubtedly show up all his neighbors. The young boy will hopefully get lots of candy from his neighbors considering the effort that went into this outfit. The cosplay sees the boy's upper-half dressed up like a mini Luke Skywalker while his legs fill out the Tauntaun's legs.

Hopefully, Clint will accompany his son with an befitting Star Wars cosplay this Halloween. Given the two's height difference, we're thinking an AT-AT from Hoth would be seasonally and series appropriate.

This isn't the first child-sized cosplay of 2016 to send the Internet into a tizzy. Earlier this fall, photographer Laura Izumikawa blew netizens away by cosplaying her sleeping baby girl in various geeky ensembles.

Her daughter, Joey Marie Choi, was dressed up like all sorts of characters. From Pikachu to Han Solo and even Beyonce, the baby rocked her mother's wardrobe choices with little fuss.

The mother told The Huffington Post she started to cosplay her daughter since she would "end up just staring at her face all day and night because I was just so in love."

"Because Joey slept so deeply, I thought it'd be fun adding little props on her just to send some hilarious pictures to our parents. It was a way to memorialize her growth and little milestones."

Another family also gained viral fame for dressing up their baby as an adorable comic book characters. Director James Gunn shared a photo of 5-month-old Charlie Lockwood from a Comic-Con where he was dressed as Baby Groot. The baby's parents were attending the convention as merchants and decided to pass on their love of Guardians of the Galaxy with their son.

His mother, Tracie, posted about her son's sudden fame on Imgur and explained they were stationed at her "husband's booth." She went on to say, "I can assure you no comics were injured in the process. Since he can't stand, we supported most of the weight."

So, what do you guys think? Is this latest Star Wars cosplay one of the better you've seen? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
