Rocinante Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 Hi there! I’m a Rebel from Alderaan Base, and I’ve been hoping to go to this event for years! I’d like to go as Din Djarin but I understand if the local one had already signed up. Problem is I can’t find the costume list, could someone point me in the right direction? I have others as well just in case but would love some pics of Din next to airplanes and the like I’ve never trooped outside my garrison so I am totally new to this, apologies if I’m stepping on anyone’s toes!

Hey John! We don't have a costume listing. Just folks posting here or on the event itself if they're going as a face character. I assume @Feliz will be a Vader. @CTdadalorian20 is our only Din I think, so if they're not signing up for this one I think you're okay to be Din Djarin! 1 Garrison Web Master | First Imperial Stormtrooper Detachment Leader Emeritus ANH Stunt Stormtrooper - Centurion | ESB Line Officer - Imperator |Dengar - Approved Heavy Weapon Trooper - Centurion| ESB Stormtrooper- Approved | Admiral Daala - Approved| Jodo Kast - Approved Link to comment

CTdadalorian20 Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 Hi @Rocinante, always a pleasure meeting another Din. I am not signed up currently. I did the event last year and the photos of my beskar against the shiny polished aluminum of the B-29 are awesome. I will opt out so you can check it out and get your photos. Have fun! I appreciate you asking, especially as Din is my only costume so far. ? 1 Link to comment

Popular Post Daala Posted March 13, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 13, 2023 I am coming and bringing Art. I can do either Rebel or Imperial depending on what is needed so I won't indicate which until the list is a little more detailed. You could let me know Ezra which would round out the showing. 2 1 A little short for a storm tooper. Link to comment
scifigrl4starwars Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Hi! Coming down from NEG as well. I prefer wrangling, so I put myself down as Helper on the calendar. If I have to buy my own museum pass, I'm fine with that, always down to support a museum. I see that they're partnering with the food bank, I assume we can bring donations for that as well?

fowlmouth Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 I don’t see a Vader on this list yet so count me in! And count in Lori as an extra handler. 1 Link to comment
Thanamira Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Hi, gang! Rebel pilot from Alderaan Base; I came a few years ago and had a blast. Is there a time when we're trying to have the most people? I don't remember when the busy times were. E.g., if I could be showing up more like noon, that'd be a bit more convenient for me, but if the crush of people is right at 9am, then I try to get there a lot earlier. Link to comment

It shouldn't be an issue. 1 Link to comment
