    STAR WARS FAN DAYS II in Dallas Texas

    FYI:

    Just wanted to give everyone a heads-up to those that were attending this year, but STAR WARS FAN DAYS II will again be held in Plano Texas, October 25th and 26th.

    • TDH will have a room/table to help showcase FETT, along with the R2 Builders Room.
    • If you would like to help man the table please contact Batninja (and please bring your Fett items to showcase at the table.)
    We have some great Guests lined up, and this is an "Official" Star Wars event.

    special thanks to C2 Ventures/ Official Pix.

    Hope to see everyone there!!!

    Finally Leeanna Walsman is coming to another con. Too bad there's no way we can afford to go out there and meet her.

    I'll be there! Going to wear my newly completed Fett one day and probably help man the table and cruise the second day.

    These wars in the stars you speak of?
    Should I be concerned?

    Easy there, Daikini!! I'll be sure to paint some big purple flowers on your FPH for ya.

    I looked at the convention website and of course, this is the show that Jewel Staite will be attending. . . grumble. . . mumble.
    She had to change her schedule just before the last show in April. I really wanted to meet her.
    Maybe some nice TDH member could hook me up with an autographed picture? Personalized to Eric-with-a-C. I'll pay of course.

    And it looks like, with the gracious guidance and time of Evan4218, I will be bringing my Fett.

    Add a little pure ROTJ to all the SE stuff going around...

    Well, my ESB Fett wont be anywhere near complete...but if I can by some miracle get my snowtrooper finished, then I will probably sport that. But I should be there either way.

    I am there. I will have a table. My prices varies, depending on what you want done.
    I will offer quick 1 minute Official Fan Days sketch card for free though,
    along with postcard art prints and sketchbooks (if I can get them back in time)
    anything else or more detailed, sorry, but will be followed by a price.


    I am open for commissions to be picked up at the con as well, if anyone is interested.

    Re: STAR WARS FAN DAYS II in Dallas Texas

    Since this is to be my first time attending one of these in costume, can I get some advice?? Just a little concerned about logistics -- especially given the cumbersome nature of this outfit. Do you put everything on and drive there? Put half of it on and carry the rest? Put it on when you get there?

    Right now I lack the skill to get all of this on by myself. Mostly because of the challenge in getting the harness on correctly through vest and backplate. Then there's the matter of the jet pack....

    So, assuming I want to be in full Fett regalia going in on Saturday, how would you do that? My hotel is the Dallas Renaissance Richardson -- about five miles away. Pointers?

    Re: STAR WARS FAN DAYS II in Dallas Texas

    Good questions. Without a hotel within walking distance you could maybe arrange to meet a fellow TDH member at their hotel room if closer and change there or change at your car. Either way you'll need someone to help you get your costume on. Sorry, that's not the most helpful post ever.

    I'll be at the con but I'm working with one of the art guests so no costume for me. I'll be sure to stop by the TDH table multiple times, everyone stop by Paul Ballard's table and say hi!

    I would wear as much as you can (without having to draw too much attention to yourself should you need to stop for gas), and call someone for assistance once you arrive. If you need, I can come out to the parking lot, or send someone to help.

    I may take you up on that!

    Actually, I thought of how to deal with the whole harness rings issue even while I was sitting here. So I may be able to do even more of it myself.

    Thanks!

    By request, here's the whole 'Chewbacca Stole My Cooler' Story...

    Back in 2004, I still lived in Colorado, and was GML for Mountain Garrison. For the annual StarFest, we heard that Peter Mayhew would be a guest of the con. The garrison leadership immediately took initiative to make arrangements for his transport from the airport to the hotel, and planned to have him inducted as an Honorary 501st Member at a Saturday night banquet.

    Peter’s one request: “I’ve had trouble finding Dr. Pepper at many cities in that area of the U.S. If it’s available, could someone be kind enough to have some brought down to my table?”

    Being the avid Dr. Pepper drinker that I am, I volunteered to be Peter’s personal supplier. Both Friday and Saturday, I brought him a six-pack of ice-cold refreshment, in my favorite cooler. This small cooler was rather unique, in that its colors were so bright, one could see the pastel yellow/turquoise/purple monstrosity from space. I loved that cooler. Like having a mangy one-eyed dog for a pet, I never had to worry about someone mistaking it for their own. What could go wrong at a sci-fi convention?

    The rest of the weekend’s events went off without a hitch. Saturday night, we held the induction ceremony (I’ll have to dig around for some pictures), and Peter had kind words for everyone involved.

    Sunday morning, after most of the activities had wound down, and Peter was on his departing flight, I went down to his table to retrieve my beloved cooler.

    It was gone. Vanished. Thin air.

    I asked nearby celebrities and staffers if they’d seen the cooler. Nope. I cornered hotel workers and asked the same. No dice. No one from the garrison picked it up, either. I was left with one conclusion:

    Chewbacca stole my cooler.

    And I know where he lives.

    Awesome story!

    Oh...and Diet Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper is easily the most delicious soft drink, if not beverage, ever invented. My one and only (ha!) vice....

    Yay, I've pretty much arranged my work schedule so that I can be around on Saturday, until about 4pm. Will definitely be helping out with the booth if needed. I just have no idea which costume I'm going to wear...

    Barbie Fett isn't in wearable condition at the moment (upgrades), so you're safe from the Annoy-O-Meter for the time being.

    im going, although since all my star wars costumes are still at my moms house ( i moved out recently for collge) i will probably either go as a half-life 2 rebel or nothing. my girlfriend wants to go as wicket but i dunno if ill be able to finish her 'wicket hat' she wants on time, anyone got a site that shows how to make that little rag thing he wears over his head?

    Re: STAR WARS FAN DAYS II in Dallas Texas

    Can we get a roll call list?

    Oh, and I'll remind everyone at the show, but please look for the Hasbro display of their Millennium Falcon toy and take the mobile phone survey to enter to win it! Why, you ask?? Because it's my job!

    I'm partnering with Hasbro to do some basic behavioral research on Star Wars fans and their toy collecting. The survey is totally SMS-text based -- meaning you opt in via a text message and answer all the questions through a series of text messages back and forth with our platform. There will be a large sign next to the display with instructions and one person who completes the survey will be selected at random to win!

    So, help a brother out and take the survey!

    See ya there!

    I'm partnering with Hasbro to do some basic behavioral research on Star Wars fans and their toy collecting. The survey is totally SMS-text based -- meaning you opt in via a text message and answer all the questions through a series of text messages back and forth with our platform. There will be a large sign next to the display with instructions and one person who completes the survey will be selected at random to win!

    So, help a brother out and take the survey!

    See ya there!

    Cool... will do...
    Philip Wise told me Ron was gonna be there from Hasbro?? The maker of the Original 1980'S Falcon, and the new one that was just released....is that correct??

    Possibly -- not certain. I've been speaking with Derryl DePriest, the brand guy, but not sure who is going to be there beyond that.

    I have a ton of ****...including a prototype 2-3-2 r2 that I just got. It's being shipped today and hopefully should arrive by Friday!

    Also just got a local guy to bring his gold 3po.

    Does that mean I could, in theory, just wheel my trunk in and get dressed on site? Maybe just wear the dirty jumpsuit and look like an unsavory transient?? Then I'd have all the help I need to get ready. lol

    And that means I don't have to compete with DM's suit actually walking around! Cool.

    No armor for me this time. I'll probably just wear my new Leia-print corset, since I have to be at work at 4pm (easier to change out of than any of my costumes).

    If y'all need help setting up, I can be a part of the 9am crew.

    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

    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!

    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.

    Re: STAR WARS FAN DAYS II in Dallas Texas

    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.

    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).

    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....:thumbup..I'm sure it won't be a problem...Ben treats his peeps good.

    AND yes, I will be there at 8:30AM!!! .....for real this time.

    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.

    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.

    I'll be there for half the day in my Vader. When will the group photo be, most likely? I'm undecided on which half the day to wear it.

    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.

    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!

    Re: STAR WARS FAN DAYS II in Dallas Texas

    Okay, I am completely bummed. I could only make it down for Sunday and I was REALLY depressed that there was NO, I MEAN NO TDH members running around. There was no table, no display, no nothing. I brought my jet pack in and roamed around with it in its case for an hour looking for some brothren and found NOTHING!!! I was so pumped to meet some of you guys there (including folks from OK) but instead got to walk the convention for two hours, get my autographs, buy a fett figure, had my son get his lid signed by all the artists, go to BJ's for an overpriced lunch then drive the lonely 3 hours back to OKC.

    ..that sucks...sorry we missed you... but most of the board members in this area here live about 45minutes away from Plano...so we always only plan for one day, and Saturday is normally the best day.

    I will post pictures tonight..

    I was actually there on Sunday but had forgotten to bring a shirt on Saturday to wear under my armor -- so I ended up wearing my TDH shirt then. I thought I would be tempting the BO Gods wearing it again on Sunday.

    If you happened to wander by the Hasbro Millennium Falcon display near registration, you might have seen me on Sunday trying to get people to take a survey on their cell phones to win one. I was wearing a green long sleeve shirt...

    Sorry I missed you, bud!!

    Sorry I missed you, bud!!

    Yeah Baby!

    My first troop and I made the local channel 8...that Rocks.

    Boomer, I'm sorry we missed you. For all the area Fetts, yes that includes the Okies , we need to plan a TDH takeover of All-Con in Dallas in March. That 3 day con will give us more time to get together and play as the list of attending TDHers is already bigger than Fan Days was.

    My family and I had a blast. My Fett quality (yes, there's still things to work on ) and getting it done in time only happened through the generosity and talent of Evan4218 and Batninja. Justin helped me, while sick, Friday night put armor together and worked with me until midnight until I went hope and continued to work until 3:15am. Eric assisted me with his elite sewing skills and techniques as well as passing on some experience tips for a Fett newbie. There's many more to thank and I will do that in a showoff thread later after I do some more (perfectionist) work. Also a big thank you to all TDH members present for making Swartzy (Cari) and I feel so welcome and confident in my first Fett troop.

    Re: STAR WARS FAN DAYS II in Dallas Texas

    I was assisting one of the star wars artists (Paul Allan Ballard) in the exhibit hall and I didn't get to check out the TDH table Saturday. I didn't realize it was only going to be set up Saturday either so I missed out.

    It was a great Con though, so many enthusiastic fans and the artists were treated really well.

    I did get to meet Spideyfett and Darthmiller Saturday night which was fantastic

    Chris was SE and I was ROTJ if that helps...

    I guess we'll have to check the pics Alex took to see who was taller.
