Joining the 501st - Potential Members PLEASE READ

[Mattax]

In order to join the 501st, you need to be 18 years old, and own a professional quality costume representing a well-documented canon villain or malevolent character from the Star Wars films or Expanded Universe.

Once you have your costume completed, you can fill out the application at http://www.501st.com/members/join_form.php, and submit photographs of your costume to our Garrison Membership Officer. If your costume is approved, you will receive notification by e-mail. If your costume does not meet 501st requirements, our Garrison Membership Officer will work with you and provide recommendations and resources that can assist you in modifying your costume to meet Legion requirements.

If you don't have a professional quality Star Wars costume, and would like input on how to put one together, see our topic on 501st Costume Advice.

Here is the 501st Legion main page for additional information regarding membership:
