The BIGGEST Star Wars trading convention in Europe, offering an excellent range of vintage and modern collectable items from art and books to figures returns to the Kingfisher on Saturday 4th May 2019 …. May the 4th be with you!

Last year in October, we had our BIGGEST attendance yet, with an incredible excess of 2,000 fans! Can we break the record for Episode VII?!

The event will be located opposite TK MAXX on Level 1. Save the date and we look forward to seeing you there!

He played an Imperial Officer and a Stormtrooper in The Empire Strikes Back, and Bossk (filling in for Alan Harris), Lieutenant Blount (Rebel Commando), a Stormtrooper, Calamari Warrior, Major Panno, and Giran in Return of the Jedi. Since Star Wars, he has pursued a career in visual effects.
