Those are very cool Sharon! I've seen a lot of incredible Star Wars pumpkins over the last several years. If you've ever carved a pumpkin, you're appreciation for the incredible jobs of some of these "pumpkin artists" is tenfold! Just some amazing work...
On a related note, who here has dressed up as a Star Wars character for Halloween before? I was a very ominous Darth Vader from the ages of about 8 to 10 or so - complete with Don Post helmet and all the fancy fixin's! I hung on to that helmet all these years, and in a great twist of fate, my wife wound up wearing it, and donning the entire Vader costume a couple years ago for Halloween. Most amusing when her long blonde pony tail would occasionally slip out the back of the helmet though... :P

When I was about 8 years old I made my own Luke Skywalker costume. It consisted of a white, long-sleeved thermal shirt, tan pajama bottoms, those nasty green rubber boots w/yellow laces that everyone had as a kid, and a wiffleball bat with electrical tape around the handle as a light saber. ;D
I was sooooo d*mn proud of that costume. ;D If I ever come across any pictures, I'll post them.

In 1999 I dressed up as Darth Maul. I ave some pictures of me that I will post here once I hook up my scanner to my new computer (since my old was is out of action.) :'(

In 1979 for Kindergarten I dressed up as a Jawa. My Mom made me a long brown robe with an oversized hood and the bandoliers, and I wore black pantyhose over my face! Back in those days I was even allowed to take my Han Solo Blaster into class with me to complete the outfit.
Last year I helped my nephew make an Anakin Skywalker costume fot his first grade party, but he wasn't allowed to take his lightsaber to school. :(

I do it all the time. Not just for Halloween. :)
THIS Halloween however, I hope to have a new costume done, and will be a Scout Trooper for the first time.

Last year I was Bib Fortuna and my girlfriend was Slave Leia. We only got third in the rebelscum contest, but we actually won a few NYC contests with those costumes. Ahhhh...Halloween.

Oh yes, we know all about that picture, Ed! ;D I'd fashion a guess that if it was just your lady in that shot, first place would've been all hers! Oh well. But you still make for a very handsome Bib Fortuna anyways... ;)

I went as a Jedi for Halloween in 2000. It was pretty good.

Yeah, you're probably right, Matt! But I like to think I was a very grotesque Bib Fortuna (which is what I was aiming for, of course) ;D

There was a Bib Fortuna in that picture ???
