Star Wars Cosplay: May the Fourth Be With You – 501st Legion Celebrates Star Wars Day

On this most auspicious of weeks, the 501st Legion wants to wish you a happy May the Fourth!

Star Wars fans around the world know this to be the most sacred of days- the day we celebrate everything within the Star Wars galaxy. There are none more dedicated to this celebration than the members of the 501st Legion, those dedicated to the most screen realistic cosplays on the market. Today we celebrate Star Wars Day!

Revenge of the Fifth is a hilarious offshoot of this yearly celebration, and the 501st Legion regularly produces content for their community around the day. Check out this epic compilation from the 2020 May the Fourth celebration!

Cosplay for Good

Not only do the 501st Legion members do Cosplay with flair and style, they also dedicate themselves to bettering the Galaxy. They take time regularly to donate to charities and organize events to fundraise. Check out this recent partnership:
