Here's 45 excellent Star Wars interpretations by cosplayers

Star Wars Cosplay.

It’s what fans of any movie, comic, book, TV show or video game do.

It’s fun to dress up as your favorite character and run around the universe in green leotards and re-enact classic scenes and poses.

Let's have a look at some photos eh?

Ming Na Wen or 'Fennic Shand' dressed in a Princess Leia costume:

Here's a well prepared Greedo:

What's that Mr Lucas, you want me to shoot first?

And where a film like Star Wars has been around since 1977 and featured 10 movies, one animated movie, a whole series about the Clone Wars and has left a galaxy littered with comics, books and video games, there’s sure to be one or two fans who want to dress up like that universe’s characters.

Take the Sand People for instance:

Angry Tusken Raiders.

While we all wanted to be Luke or Leia growing up, these grown-up adult cosplayers have done the whole gamut of Stars Wars characters.

Check out these great cosplayers doing Star Wars – we’ve Gredos, X-Wing pilots, Jaden and Jedi.

There’s a few Sith Lords in body paint and a parody of a Sith Lord. Wookies, wookies in bikinis, sexy babes in bikinis and a Jar Jar on a plate. Yes, that’s right Jar Jar Binks on a plate:

Cute little Ewoks cosplay

Is this the cutest lil Ewok since Warrick Davis' Wicket? Oh wait it is Wicket! Well close enough lil guy, you're adorable.

Some kind of Zombie Ewok?

Possibly the cutest Ewok cosplay ever. Cha wanga eh!

Darth Vader, Sith Lord and father of the year...

There's no cosplay without one of the greatest villains in all movie history is there?

When you think of an evil character you think of Anakin Skywalker and all the misery he unleashed on the Galaxy. Hence, he makes for great role play:

'Harass your employee' Vader

Spaceballs Vader. We miss you Rick Moranis!

Steam Punk Vader

This one looks like Vader's about to take some personal time after a stressful decade hunting down the last of the Jedi. You can't really blame Vader for having needs though can you, it's pretty cold and lonely in space...

Clones and Stormtroopers

These are the guys that apparently can't shoot to save themselves, save for when Order 66 was made. First up is Elvis Trooper. Remember, what happens in the Cantina, stays in the Cantina.

Thank you, thank you very much.

'Busting out of her corset' Trooper

Zombie Trooper: Brainnns!

Where's Wally Trooper (he's on the steps - Ed)

Sith Lords we have known

Vader and the Emperor Palpatine are perhaps the most famous Sith Lords in the Star Wars universe. Darth Maul was made popular in the Phantom Menace and Count Dooku in Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith.

But no one wants to dress up as Count 'Dookie', it's all about the Sith babes in body paint it seems:

The Ray Park / Darth Maul is a popular choice:

These are the droids and robots we're looking for

R2D2 and C3PO are to the Star Wars realm as to what Bert and Ernie are to Sesame Street. In other words, vital to the success of the franchise (George Lucas actually wrote the first film from their point of view).

Here's some sweet droid cosplay, starting with this fantastic ballerina tutu of R2. We love the hat!

Ballerina R2

The cutest R2 unit ever?

The classic Princess Leia shot of her giving the stolen Death Star plans to R2.

Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi!

We of course must include include some C3PO cosplay right? Let's start with this fail? Or is it so bad it's good? It's a runner for the worst Star Wars cosplay ever...

And then we found this. It's some kind of vaudeville or burlesque kind of C3PO. While we've never thought of C3PO as being sexy before, this golden rod might give you pause to rethink that...

The sexiest C3PO ever?

Boba Fett cosplayers like to vamp it up

Gamer Grrl Fett - probably on Twitch

Booba Fett?

If you recognise this next cosplayer, you'll be correct in remembering her from The Return of the Jedi. You'll either remember her as Ooola, the dancer that got eaten by Jabba's Rancor monster or you'll remember her for the infamous Star Wars nipple slip / costume fail..

green twi'lek cosplay dancer - the nip slip one

We think this might be some Jaina Solo cosplay. Sadly, no a character that fits in the canon...

One Leia to rule them all...

If there was an answer to the most common Star Wars costume on display at any Pax or Celebration Convention, it's probably Princess Leia's slave costume.
