This is my friend TJ, wearing a costume she made for Halloween, 1977. She was 16 at the time.
Now, keep in mind: there was no internet to search for images. She could not have rented and paused the movie, because it wasn’t released on video until 1982. No, TJ just went to the movie a bunch of times, took notes with a flashlight, drew a bunch of sketches, and put this together.
In 19-fucking-77. So let’s bury this bullshit about how women didn’t grow up on Star Wars.
Hell yeah TJ
I had a queen amidala bike from the phantom menace growing up. All my younger siblings learned how to ride without training wheels on that sucker. The original battle frount games where my bag. I was queen amidala for Halloween twice. even my first mary sue oc was a star wars oc. I know the prequels aren’t good, but those where my star wars movies.
