I really dig the Star Wars dress up idea. It's so much fun to dress up and with all that Star Wars gear you'r guaranteed with hilarious play (well, with the right people, if not, find refugee with the kids, allways fun)

JustErin, if you want, I can look for some rare X-man comic book here in Amsterdam. Sort of cool to get him something he can't buy in the US. Or maybe there's an UK person who knows how to get an rare English comic?

I love to give gifts that are rare, unexpected en totally loved by the receiving person (it's all about my own ego ofcourse)

So, Is there anybody who can help JustErin with making the (digital) invitations, encompassing links to stores were the inviteted guest can get their Star War outfit?

And, I'm not into Star Wars, but what kind of food do they serve in Intergalactic restaurants? You'r a good cook, so it would be fun to make intergalactic bites. I'm thinking a lot of fruit because of the color, so strawberries, bleu berries, pineapple. With some pure gelatine (I like Robertsons).

I'm a big fan of Donna Hay, she has great ideas for cocktails and parties that actually fit into a normal person's schedule .

And obviously the Darth Vader gelly cake

Well, good luck, let me know if I can get you something from Amsterdam.

I could give you some great X-men issues to get for him. Does he have a large collection? If he does, he may already have them, though.

Looks like all the star wars & comic book geeks are responding to this thread.

I can't lie I'm a closet star wars geek myself.

May the force be with you.
