This is also posted in the 501st forums and at rebelscum...I plan to attend in TK armor...sounds and looks like fun
Yeah, you don't get to shoot the wookiee. The guy that runs that event is 6'10" and at only 18 years old he's still growing.
Will there be a list posted of what costumes wil be present at the event? For any of us that might be coming up o the event, so we don't have duplicate costumes of unique characters.
There has been no confirmation on specific costumes other then locals like Jacasta Nu & Clone Commander Fox. As people comfirm specific costumes we will post them. I'm told there will be a gonk droid walking aroud this year. Also our 1/3 size AT-ST and life size Ewoks will be there too
Just reminding everyone this is happening this weekend. With the reponce that we are getting we are expectiing to top 300 people attending. There are tons of things being given away including Star Wars posters from Dark Horse comics to the first 140 people.
Amazing turnout this year! 309 people signed the book and we guestimate 400+ attendees. Thanks to all of you who came from out of town to participate. Pics should be up anytime on the website www.londonrogues.com Darth Papa
