Another Star Trek Costume World Record
It seems like only 6 months ago that the World Record for most Star Trek costumes in one place was broken in London… Hang on… it was…
It was a short lived record as on May 1st two continents; Tampa in Florida and Bonn in Germany, got together to break the record.
The Europeans gathering was at the FedCon XIX Convention which will receive the certificate from Guinness. With the record set at a mere 99, FedCon were sure they could beat it with the thousands that visit the convention.
At 1pm those in costume were asked to gather outside for the headcount and although many stayed in lines for memorabilia and autographs a massive 507 was the final head count among the visitors.
Richard Arnold, the poor guy who had to ask the question “What’s the costume?” was the judge to the visitors costume authenticity, those with star gate, star wars or just a pair of ears would not be allowed to be included.

At the same time in the US, at the Vulcan Events Convention in Tampa Florida fans gathered to aid the record however due to Vulcan Events being a lot smaller they still beat the London attempt with a whopping 110.
