STAR WARS FAN DAYS II in Dallas Texas

I think this calls for a GROUP PHOTO?????

Based on the times of some of the Q&A's I think 1:00PM SHARP is a GOOD time for GROUP picture. ??? NO?

Next best time would be at 4:00PM

thoughts?

Nice. Either time for me, I just go with the flow.

We might also ponder all going out to eat someplace as well (post-con)?

Either time will work for me, too! Just let me know the final time and where. I assume we are doing this Saturday, yes?

Alex -- I'll definitely take you or Batninja up on the help thing -- if only because I can't imagine even driving 5 miles in the backplate and cod!!

Boomer -- I gotta get pics with you and your bad attitude and the wife and kids! :D

And Chilis or, better yet, Chuy's works for me!!

Hey guys, I'm not going to be able to make it to the Con. My meds have not been letting me feel good and I'm not sure I'm gonna be able to make the drive. Hope you guys take lots of pics.
 
I'm going to throw this out there cause it's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

According to the Star Garrsion CO, Ben Stevens has given the 501st a changing room - where and how big are unknown. Just something to keep in mind as it might be better than the bathroom. :rolleyes

Other possible option:
If TDHers were able to get in early, as in before the con opens, we could a) help setup b) have multiple hands on deck to assist suiting up. As it stands now, I'm aiming for 9am (just to see if Spidey is on time).:lol:

Cool, I'm actually working the con so I will know more once I get there... but that is awesome to let these guys get in there and change....(y)..I'm sure it won't be a problem...Ben treats his peeps good. (y)

AND yes, I will be there at 8:30AM!!! :D.....for real this time. :lol:
 
Cool. I will definitely plan on doing most of it there and getting there early. As long as the room isn't Star Garrison only -- I'm sure they won't mind letting another 501st-er in. :D

Exactly. My only concern is that there won't be enough room there which puts us in the parking lot (been done plenty of times) or the Fett/R2 room. Also, SG will not get there at 9am...I promise.

Regardless, this is going to rock.
 
For those that already know me, I won't have my R2 to bring (gee, shocker), and my Fett helmet has a broken range finder. However, I'm bringing along a couple of guys that may want to join up after seeing our collection of toys, and am more than willing to help out at either Fett or R2 booth part of the day (Saturday only). I probably won't arrive 'til noon though!

If I'd have been 100% about attending sooner, I may have been able to dish up a couple of sets of lights. :(

It was great seeing everyone again, and meeting a few new faces. Wasn't quite as large a turn-out as I'd expected. Would have been nice to have a large group get-together afterward for dinner somewhere. Anyway, hope to see y'all again at the next gathering (whenever that may be).

Wish I could have taken some pictures, but my camera had no memory card. ;) Alex's daughter's costume was AWESOME! Congrats to Mom & Dad for putting that one together and raising her right! :)

There will be more! I'll be posting pics as soon as I get home on Monday.

Many thanks to Alex, Eric, Jason, Matt and others who lent a hand! Schwartz and I were definitely drawing our crowds and making the kids happy. And I'm proud to announce that I was able to represent by taking 1st place in the Adult Male category of the costume contest! That speaks volumes about just how much fans and hobbyists like myself are able to accomplish with the help of our peers on this board. Beating Darth Vader (and Chef Vader!) never felt so good. :D

Pics to come!

It was great seeing y'all yesterday, even if the whole 9am-to-help-set-up thing didn't happen on my end. (Really good absinthe + lack of sleep = no early mornings for me. Oops?)

Congrats on the win, Madmartigan! :)
