Sept 20 Rebel Base 20th Anniversary Charlotte, NC

Lord Vader wanted to know why this Rebel Base was still standing after 20 years….

I reported back to the Dark Lord that it has toooo many cool geek swag to destroy it!!! :wink:

Lord Vader stated after that “impressive most Impressive” I will give you a list of my geek swag needs….

The Carolina Garrison and long with a few Mercs came out to party with Troy and the crew of Rebel Base Comics and Toys for their 20th Anniversary party and sale!!! and we had a galaxy far far away party in the back door of the place!!!

Troy had a huge line of long term customers coming by not just for the sale, but to wish them the best on being in business that long.

20 years is a huuuge milestone for any business. I think Troy’s success is due to great service and always having what the geek needs and a caring cool attitude.

Troy said this was not about the sale, this was to thank everyone that has supported the store for the 20 years and this day was about the fun and to party!!!

So!!! Here is to Troy and all the gang at Rebel base :cheers: May The Force Be With You For Another 20 Years!!
