Dare you to not say "awwww" at any of these.

Fans of Rare and the beloved Banjo Kazooie franchise are absolutely ecstatic over the Yooka-Laylee’s initial announcement and the overwhelming success with their recently launched Kickstarter campaign.

If Yooka-Laylee actually defeated enemies with sonic wave attacks and ukuleles as Cortoony portrays it here – I’m calling it, instant Game of the Year status.

As an added extra bonus, a fan by the name of Billy Lauko decided to create his own custom Yooka-Laylee amiibos out of clay!

Let’s commend all of these artists and fans for being so incredibly talented and for their passion in this exciting, new project by Playtonic Games. What was your favorite piece of fan art? Do you have fan art you wish to display? Feel free to comment and share below?
