For our 2007 Costume Contest, we’re officially announcing the four winners for the following prize-in-tow awards: Most Creative, Most Cost-Effective, Most Accurate, and Best in Show.

Most Creative
For all the fans who customize, with flames, colors or add-ons.
Prize: Star Wars Boba Fett Blaster Scaled Replica ($45 value)
Winner: Ray Ramirez – Mando Sniper

Most Cost-Effective
For all the fans who can make good use of cardboard, or some clever and resourceful alternative.
Prize: Star Wars Betrayal on Bespin Action Figure Battle Pack ($25 value)
Winner: Jacob – Boba Fett
Statement (via Jacob’s dad): “Made from a combo of a toy kit, a Walmart trash can, a sweatsuit, mock turtleneck, and some bondo/foam/fiberglass for the jetpack. Oh, and some slip on shoes that I spray-painted. Total price was around $150 or so.”

Most Accurate
For all the fans who study the reference photos and master the details.
Prize: Star Wars Boba Fett Scaled Helmet Replica ($50 value)
Winner: J. Salcedo – Boba Fett (Special Edition version Fett *)

Best in Show
For the one fan, who has the best all around costume in 2007.
Prize: EE Exclusive Star Wars Elite Forces of the Republic ($67 value)
Winner: Thomas Spanos – Durge
