Invasion Report: A team of Mandalorian Mercs descended upon the
Long Beach Convention Center for their 3rd annual Comic Convention. Along with the 501st Legion, the Rebel Legion, the L.A. Saber Guild and the R2 builders group, the Mercs rounded out a strong Star Wars presence and participated in making the event an extremely fun filled time. Activities included posing for photographs with fans, meeting celebrities, and informing enthusiastic con-goers about the Mandalorian Mercs costume club.
The Mercs were also invited to attend and participate in the induction of honorary Merc, Stephen Stanton, into the ranks of the 501st. It was a touching ceremony that highlighted all of the selfless work that Stephen has done to help out Zev, Franni and Princess Leah Esquenazi in their time of need. Over $1000.00 was raised for the
Princess Leah Fund.
