There were thousands of costumed fans at CIV, each and every one of them amazing. But did you have a favorite? What where some of the best ones you saw? I myself cant decide, there where so many wonderful costumes. Where there any ones in particular that stood out to you? Lets hear your thoughts! happy

There was an Ackmena and I never knew? Dang it!

I am reminded of Ackmena every time I see a chorus line like event. Especially at Celebration. That part of the holiday special rocked. I mean.... come back soon, i'll be waiting

There were definitely less costumed fans at CIV than there were at C3. This has got to be one of the best that I saw at the DH Comics booth:

I think the heat and the distance to many of the hotels might have weighted in when people decided to costume or not.

Actually the weather was very good for costumes, especially in the mornings. The distance between hotels and convention center was a big problem for costumes. I mostly stuck to wearing Jedi, which is an all-day costume. But there were fewer of the more complicated things that can't be worn all day. My admiration to whoever did the Grievous and the C3PO. That's a lot of work.

Someone at our fan table did a pretty decent Qui-Gon Jinn. His young Obi-Wan showed up on Sunday and I got a picture of them with a good looking Maul-of-opportunity in the hall. It's nice when complimentary costumes meet like that.

Whoa. That's an actual costume and not a wax sculpture? Most impressive. hypnotized

I liked the Tenel Ka/Teneniel Djo duo that was going around. I know I've seen some pictures of them on here.

I thought the Aurra Sing costumes were great, the adult and the child versions. And any Twilek costume, I didnt get to see her but there was a picture I saw of a cool pink one. Also the opera twi'lek costume was pretty.

And special kudos to Robbiemxpx who was the only male Twi'lek i saw. :P

Oh and the cardboard 3po..that was classic, lol.

I think that was probably me (Qui-Gon) and my friend Lance (Obi-Wan) from the Tidewater Alliance group:



Not sure who the Maul was. We took pics with a couple different "Mauls of opportunity," as you put it.

Anyway, if it was us you were talking about, thanks for the compliments.

I think that Summer's Darth Talon was awesome as well. I just hope to have tweaked my Twi'lek by C5, if and when it happens... that, and hopefully have some TK armor by then.
