Rebellenstützpunkt is probably the largest Star Wars action-figure community in Germany and still growing. On september 21st, 2013 we will hold our 3rd convention, the RebelCon. It started as a small collector meeting and grew into a large convention for action-figures over the past years. In addition to dealing action-figures and related stuff, there will be exhibitions of custom made action-figures and vehicles, original sealed figures from the good old Kenner era. Also many costumed fans browsing the convention. One of the highlights on each RebelCon is a tombola with donated prizes from companies like Hasbro Germany, Panini Comics etc. and private donators as well. From the young fan to the adult collector, almost everybody can catch a prize.
