YOUR FAVORITE MTV SHOWS ARE ON PARAMOUNT+

The 21 Most Galactically Awesome 'Star Wars' Cosplays Ever

These ARE the cosplayers you're looking for.

This week at San Diego Comic-Con, we've already seen a LOT of amazing cosplayers. But nobody goes all out more than "Star Wars" fans, who've been dressing up like their favorite characters since before the term "cosplay" was even invented! (which was in 1984 at the Los Angeles Worldcon, according to most accounts)

Here are some of our favorite cosplays from past conventions, way before we got our first glimpse of the awesome costumes from "Star Wars: The Force Awakens." Spoiler alert! -- they're pretty amazing.

The entire 501st Legion

Can't start a best cosplay list without mentioning the biggest community of "Star Wars" costume creators, the 501st Legion. While some fans like to switch things up with their costumes, these amazing people focus heavily on accuracy when they create their outfits. You even need approval to become a member -- and you'd better be into charity work, because these fine fans are the best at it.

Sabine Wren

Kittie Cosplay's look impressed us -- let's just hope she has an easy time updating it for Season 2 of "Star Wars Rebels!"

Sexy Chewbacca
