Greetings, Curious Crowd! We’re here with the first of our FanExpo Vancouver 2019 posts and we’re kicking things off with cosplay!

Star Wars: Bad Guys Doing Good
No FanExpo Vancouver is complete without a photoshoot with the 501st Outer Rim Garrison whom were at the con alongside the Wasu’ran Clan – British Columbia Mandalorian Mercs and the Rebel Legion Falcon Base. This group is special to us as we have volunteered alongside this fun cosplay group in the past to raise money for Variety the Children’s Charity of BC. This time around we had our very own Imperial officer escort us through a three photo-op station!
