I've always understood that L.A. was the place for C-V and C-VI. The problem with Indy is they are in the midst of their big expansion, and that poses problems for attendees. For instance, the dome is being torn down shortly, and that involves a lot of construction, noise, blocked streets, etcetera. I would love to go back to Indy, and would be happy to do so after everything is finished. Plus Marriott is also building another flagship hotel downtown, which makes it even more convenient.

I got no qualms at all flying back to LA for C5 (and any other future Celebrations).

After C3 in '05, I basically added "SW Celebrations" as a monthly bill that I have to "pay". That way I know the funds will be there for whenever and wherever the next Celebration is held.

Howdy all!
Just joining the social thread here. I'm thinking about going to Celebration Japan. I really want to go, and I have a place to stay there, but it will still be a lot of $$.

Val, I'm always in awe of how well informed you are. Not rumor wise, but real information. Thanks for always sharing with us!

I'd love to hear about Celebration Japan!

I wonder what the Gentle Giant/Sideshow/Hasbro/SWShop.com exclusives will be for CJ (if there even are any).

WOW...Away for a few days and a new thread...geesh...I am Bantha Fodder...lol.


Ok...Got a question of my own here:

If and we all know there will be a C5 happens, what action figure would you love to see as the exclusive?


I would love to see a female action figure. But, lets face it there are not as many female characters as opposed to male figures. Now, which one....that is the hard part. But, being biased, I would love to see a Padme figure...lol

Hi Connie!

Hmmmm, exclusive figure. I'd like a female character, too, but that ain't gonna happen.

Since we're going to be close to ESB anniversary time (well, kinda happy ), maybe Lando Calrissian? I think that'd be neat.

Well, if C5 is pushed back to 2010 to coincide with the 30th anniversary of ESB, what better character to have an exclusive figure of than Yoda?

When I think of ESB, Yoda and Frank Oz are the first things that comes to mind. It would be a great way to honor the revered Jedi Master himself.

Yoda is good, too. OK, we need both Yoda and Lando as exclusives LOL.

Hasn't there been a Yoda exclusive already? Maybe it should be something random like Lobot or an Ugnaught? (forgive any misspellings)

Puppy, as soon as I get my hoover car working we're set.

Hello, it's LookAnotherPadme checking into the social thread.

I really really hope that C5 is here again! And I'd go to Japan, but I don't even get in free to DL there, so forget it!
