Learn about the evolution of your favorite characters' designs throughout their history and through different media!
If there's one thing we can say about the staff at HalloweenCostumes.com, it's that we are bona fide Star Wars maniacs. So in preparation for the year of Star Wars (it's not too early to grant that title, is it?) we've decided to channel some of our pent up excitement into reliving some oh-so-sweet nostalgia from the trilogy that started it all.

We hope it whets your Star Wars appetite - at least for a little bit!
