Details:
Cre8tiv arrived to find Beanie already in attendance and awaiting the arrival of the troops. (I have a feeling he was secretly trying to find the plans to some space station he had heard of.)
Not long after, more troopers arrived, and we decided to kit up and make our appearance as there were already many earthlings in attendance.
We received a transmission that the BTTF Delorean had also set Astro Petes event into its time circuit and would be arriving at the docking bay. Cavx and Cre8tiv went to do a security inspection of the time machine, while the remaining troopers and RL finished kitting up and made their way out to the planet viewing area, to the joy of the awaiting crowd. Many photos were taken. The Easter Bunny trooper also made a special appearance handing out some chocolate goodies to the younglings.
The awesome GA younglings amazed the crowd with their great looking costumes and many compliments were received.
The skies started out clear, then as the death star neared it became overcast... then it cleared up again just in time for us to be able to view the secret plans for the Rebel base on Mars. We also got to see Saturn and we then focused in onto "The Sniper" star with his family.
As the night drew on, the crowds grew thin and the troopers decided to return to base and call it a night.

Great fun was had by all!


Injuries / Malfunctions: Nil

Public Incidents:
No major incidents - one small child got a fright (and jumped) when Mum pointed out the "real live" stormtrooper behind him as he was looking at Astro Pete's mannequin.
