FAQ for New Members
So you've joined 501st Ireland Garrison or Rebel Legion Ireland. Here are are few frequently asked questions
Where do I get a costume?
Firstly you need to decide on your costume
Go here to see accepted 501st Costumes http://www.501st.com/databank/Costuming:CRL
Go here to see accepted Rebel Legion Costumes http://www.rebellegion.com/costume-standards/
Once you have decided, the next thing to factor in is budget. Costumes can be expensive, and there generally isn't a cheap option. Once you have decided on budget, the next step is to let us know, so we can advise you.
Unfortunately, we have seen many members buying before asking, and ending up with costume that are unclearable and a waste of money. So, Please Please ASK
Can I get involved in events without a costume?
YES, at all events we have crew. Crew are members who look after the troopers. Help them dress, watch over them for hazards, & overenthusiastic members of the public, take pictures & speak to the public about who we are & what we do.
It's also a great way to see costumes up close & get an idea how they are put together, and to meet you fellow members
