501st Legion - Great Lakes Garrison
Show Floor
Great Lakes Garrison is a subdivision of the 501st Legion, the premier Imperial Star Wars costuming group in the world. GLG operates in the state of Michigan and was originally a part of the venerable Midwest Garrison as "Michigan Squad," and then separated into a full-fledged Garrison in December of 2007. Since then, the GLG has contributed significantly to the greater 501st and Star Wars communities. The annual Motor City Comic-Con is a signature event in which the GLG participates. GLG members served a central role in TrooperFest of 2009 and 2011. GLG members have also gone on to serve in various command and administrative roles at the Legion level for the 501st, as well as the 501st's partner organization, the Rebel Legion.

They attend many charitable events, conventions, parades, and other activities to help raise awareness for various causes and to promote fun. Members are in full Ghostbuster attire with equipment and accessories to help them investigate and eliminate any paranormal entities they may encounter. If there's something strange in your neighborhood, Who you gonna call? Ghostbusters! Visit GhostbustersDetroit.com to follow us on our social media.”
Hado AR
All 3 Days
Shoot orbs of energy in a high energy, tactical dodgeball style battle. Because it’s AR (as opposed to VR), players can see themselves (including their cosplay) within the game. This is possible because the software layers the game elements over reality, similar to CGI. Experience the world’s first physical esport at Motor City Comic Con!
