Kia Ora! Welcome to the home of Outpost 42

Outpost 42 is the New Zealand Garrison of the worldwide Star Wars costuming group, the 501st Legion.


The 501st Legion is an all-volunteer organization formed for the express purpose of bringing together costume enthusiasts under a collective identity within which to operate. The Legion seeks to promote interest in Star Wars through the building and wearing of quality costumes, and to facilitate the use of these costumes for Star Wars-related events as well as contributions to the local community through costumed charity and volunteer work.

Why only collect action figures, when you can be one!

If you would like to inquire about 501st appearances, please use our event request form.

There are many charities we like to work with.
