Invasion Location: "Star Wars Build-A-Bear Release" - Louisville, KY (USA)
Date: September 25, 2010
Squad Involved: Blue Moon Squad
Mission Objective: To support the release of the new Star Wars stuffed bears and interact with children at the Build-A-Bear Workshop.
Invasion Report: After receiving an Imperial transmission, Dar Kyram was hired along side local 501st's Mid South Garrison to provide security and support at a local Build-A-Bear factory in the Northern Louisville Sector. Arriving at the factory, the Skull King linked up with an Imperial Engineer and his Stealth Trooper ally, plus a Rebel sSldier who had also been in the area. The four formed an uneasy alliance, so they could greet children coming into the factory and create their own personalized teddy bears.
The unlikely group brought awe and entertainment to the children, and even scared a few, but for the most part were well received by both the factory's employees and the visiting younglings. For two hours, the four took pictures with the visitors coming into the store, and even signed an autograph for one little girl's birthday bear. All in all, the event was a success and showed the unity across the costuming community of Kentucky.
