Star Wars costumes were certainly prevalent in 2008, and, without a doubt, many fans had armor on their holiday wish list. In an effort to fairly set expectations for new applicants, the 501st would like to emphasize that commercially available Star Wars costumes may not be acceptable for membership. It is recommended that prospective members conduct thorough research on our 501st Detachment forums before embarking on the journey to the Dark Side costuming. Remember that price does not always mean quality!
