From the legend that is Albin Johnson, patch and coin news celebrating a quarter of a century of the 501st Legion. Over to the main man himself.

Citizens of the Empire!

This year is the 25th Anniversary of the 501st Legion and we’re celebrating all year long.
Detention Block 2551 was where it all started. A Geocities website back in ’97, this is where Tom Crews and I posted our first photos in armor and spun tales of two Stormtroopers goofing off while on duty. It was here that other fans found us, submitted photos, and we built a Legion!

To commemorate, I am running a 25th Anniversary commemorative edition of the Detention Block patches and coin. Dave Liew custom designed these two logos, one the serious Interrogation Droid and the other a humorous look at life while on duty for a Stormtrooper. Beautiful work and our logos for the original website. But this edition comes with a gold border and gold fill for the “25” in “2551.” A perfect tribute to a legendary beginning.
