Princess Sandy's Slave Leias

We love you, Sandy.
I built my first Slave Leia kit in 2024. Sandy invited me to be a Slave Leia with her for the first time in 2023, and I was so excited - this incredible, beutiful, compassionate soul wanted to spend time with me? Be assosciated with me? I said yes, of course. She encouraged me, and made me absolutely confident in my choice to forgo the wig - Short hair being perfect for me - and the silly little boots - she kind of hated them too. 2024 was the 15th year of the Annual Slave Leia Poolside Shoot, and she had crafted it into a well oiled, well protected, machine. I had an incredible time the whole day with her. We really didn't understand how good we had it until 2025, when she wasn't there to conduct the orchestra. Joe did a good job, don't get me wrong, but even she would agree you can't just take over the clutch and gas on a race car in the middle of a lap and everything keep on as expected.We aren't going to stop holding it, for as long as we are here to carry on. For Sandy. With her.

• Kindness only. No comparisons, no talking down, no snubs, no disinterest. Every Slave Leia is your sister.
• Slave Leia, not Hutt-Slayer Leia. The character was enslaved and escaped, and it was traumatic. It's important to call it what it really is, for all of the women in the world who are or were enslaved or trafficked and might feel invisible or left behind by the empowerment movement.
• Anyone can be a Slave Leia, in any kit, and they are no less or no better than the next.
