Default Darth Vader, Bobba Fett and some stormtroopers in CC today
I ran across some Star Wars characters in full costume this afternoon (they even had voice modulators in their costumes, and Vader had that creepy breathing thing going on!) at the clothespin in Center City : http://www.flickr.com/photos/damonabnormal/2248705393/

I saw those guys walking down the street. It gave me quite a chuckle. I thought maybe there was a star wars convention in town or something.

Cool pictures. I have some pics from a couple of years ago when there were storm troopers and the Imperial guards (the guys in red) in the Constitution Center guarding a replica Liberty Bell. I have no idea why they were there....
