Right now, our Star Wars costumers are still at Ngee Ann City, walking about in the sweltering heat. Here are some photos of the ongoing event.
Great photo opportunity with our ensemble of Star Wars characters.

Parents latched onto this rare opportunity for their kids to have their photos taken.

Here's one of our Tie Pilot in his dual role as "balloon guy".

Stay tuned for more photos over the next few days, from the rest of the members present. And I believe we'll be seeing an interesting photo of a cameo by a certain famous Mouse![Wink :wink:](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)

It was a really hot day for trooping. Everybody was sweating buckets and "rivers of sweat" were soon pouring out of the guys and gals onto the fronts of their armour.

Today, we welcome our newest costume member, Mosske and his girlfriend to our community. Another first was our first Episode 3 Clone Trooper in 501st colours (what else would it be) owned by Jedi Slayer. Red and Blue had the debut his Episode 2 Clone Trooper which he readily admits to need some work to get it up to Trooping standards.

Anakin to make-up. Would that be just a trim or a facial as well Mr Skywalker.

The dressing room was hot.
More pictures to follow from Don Tan with some very funny concept photos including a Mickey Tie Pilot and Ice Cream Troopers.

Heartfelt appreciation going out to all costumers and minders who participated in the charity appearance on 24 Sep 06 in support of the Yellow Ribbon Project. We fielded a total of 12 costumes from 1 pm to 5 pm, and brought much joy and excitement to visitors and staff at the event.
I do apologise for the cramp and warm changing area, and I am grateful that all of you remained positive and professional, whilst enduring the unforgiving heat for 4 hours.
