Thx Ben.

 

[Bountyone]

Anyone else going to this besides the usual suspects???????

 

[smc31622]

I'm gonna try to make it, probably on Saturday

 

[Bountyone]

Thought I'd give this thread a bump to see if anyone else is going to make this Con.

I have tried to go for years now but I dont think I'll make this one either. I will be off work then but I dont think I can swing another family trip to San Fran again since were were there for Thanksgiving.

Not sure about the dinner Ben. Still waiting to hear the final day/time of the 501st dinner. Does not seem to be that much interest anyway. I do look forward to grabbing a beer with you though. :cheers

Right now I'm a 50/50 on going, but I am sure going to do my best to be there!

There's a slight chance that I might go. But it's to soon to say. But I'll sell my right leg if I think it wil help me to get there.

$49.95 is my first offer. Do I hear $50?!

im a video producer for Vimby.com. we usually dont cover events like wondercon, but they are looking to expand into doing stuff with Vinyl figures... but they are open to a lot of stuff.

Reguardles of me covering it, i can usually get press credentials through them to go events/concerts.

Looks cool, but is taking too long to load (like 1 min per page) probably too much traffic thumbsup - have to check it out later. Anyway, be good to meet you at WonderCon if it works out for you.

I've been doing my home work, I know I can afford plane tickets. Still working on the hotel thing. If I go, I might just spend 2 days at the convention and then I'll spend the rest of my time exploring the city. I'm curious, how do you go about taking your costume to the convention? I'm not sure how taking my fett costume through the airport would work out, escpecially with that blaster... A friend suggested UPS. Any advice?

Oh we'll have some beers Jon. We should at least try to organzie some kind of get together. All the usual suspects from last year will be there. I have not heard from Morgan in a while, I hope he can make it.

You will not have any problems at the Airport bro, I flew with all my Fett gear last year. I boxed up all of my armor and blasters (in a storage container w/ wheels) and they didn't even go through it there and back.

Most of us are staying at the Marriot next to the Convention center. they have plenty of room at WonderCon rates.

still on the fence with this gig. If I do go, it will be as a civilian/spectator. Too much travelling comimg down the pipeline in the spring plus further economic calamity in play will be a determing factor.
