17 'Star Wars' Cosplayers Who Prove The Awesome Is Strong With These Ones
This year, Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim gave us so much to geek out about. A new trailer for "The Force Awakens!" More details about the "Rogue One" spin-off! A new "Star Wars: Battlefront" game! The unbearable cuteness of BB-8!
But as with any convention, it's all of the exceptional cosplay that takes a large gathering of nerds and make it into something truly special. Here are just a few of our favorites:
X-Wing Balloon
That kid must be an amazing pilot. It must take a lot of skill to maneuver a ship through space that can pop at the slightest bit of pressure!
Imperial Stormtrooper Muppets
Beaker Boba Fett is inspired -- and tragic. Suddenly I feel even worse about him falling into a Sarlacc pit.
Hans Solo and Slave Elsa
Get it? HANS Solo?
Pink Chewbacca and "Reno 911" Han Solo
This is why you wash your wookiee separately from the rest of your laundry -- the color tends to bleed.
Admiral AckBunny
Our cruisers can't repel sexiness of that magnitude!
"Big Hero Six"
"Pain leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering. On a scale from 1 to 10, how would you rate your pain?"
Rey
Well that was fast! Can't wait to see more people rocking this look.
"Star Wars Rebels"
The family that cosplays together, stays together.
BB-8
Our new favorite droid already has its fair share of fans.
The Running of the Hoods
Some background: Every year at Star Wars Celebration, fans get together to cosplay a ridiculously minor character from the background of a scene in "The Empire Strikes Back" named Wilrod Hood (also known as the "Ice Cream Maker Guy" because of the contraption he's holding).
Captain America
We'd like to think Steve Rogers would be one of the Rebels, but this Stormtrooper inspired look is still pretty rad.
Iron Man
Tony Stark, though? HE'D be all about the Imperial life. They have much better toys for him to play with.
Hound Vader and Sith Lord Elsa
Yeah, with all of Arendelle siding against her and her supernatural powers, Elsa would probably turn to the Dark Side of the Force -- especially if "Game of Thrones"'s Sandor Clegane were egging her on.
Deadmau5
Be on the lookout for his newest track, "Force Ghosts 'n' Stuff."
Baby Lando Calrissian
Truly you belong with us, here among the nerds.
Han Solo in Carbonite
Someone should direct this guy to one of the Elsas -- they know a thing or two about being frozen.
Baby Ahsokas
There isn't much else we can say about these two than EEEEEEEE!
