Star Wars Costumes at ComicCon

August 3, 2008

If you have never been to a Comic-Con convention then you are missing out. Whether you are a hardcore fan or not this is a guaranteed good time to be had by all. The recent convention in San Diego was no different than any other, a smorgasbord of comic book heroes come to life.

It is impossible to attend one of these conventions and not run into a plethora of authentic costumes from just about any movie, series,comic book or video game ever created and some of these are simply amazing. Every year is the same but it seems like the costumes get better and better every year and this year had some of the best ever. We of course are most interested in the Star Wars characters despite the fact that Batman and the Joker seemed to dominate this years convention.

You will be pleased to hear that the 501st and Rebel Legion were out in force, no pun intended. They weren't alone though as fans dressed as Yoda, Darth Vader, Chewbacca, Princess Leia, Jedi and more accompanied them to the stage. No question the best looking dudes in the place though, had to be the Stormtroopers.

Here are some pics:

Clone troopers RULE! Love the authenticity of these costumes. Simply Amazing!

Anybody can be a Jedi Pilot. It takes a certain amount of style to be a Stormtrooper though.

Stormtroopers Get the Chicks...What can we say?

Ummm....the picture says it all.

Bad Guys Unite!

If you've never been to a Comic-Con, then you owe it to yourself to go. It's a good time to be had by all and the destination city is sure to offer a lot more than just ultra cool Comic Book heroes.
