Sweet
All my clone trooper figures are now in my army with my Jedi facing the Seperatists & my clone pilots are in my ARC 170 fighter.

My Cantina is now nearly full, and my Jabba picture is on the wall.

I just have to find a place for all my Hoth Rebels.


Like the photos.
Shame my hair fell in front of my face when I was getting a photo with Jabba's left hand man.

Luckily, there are no pictures of me tongue

If anyone wants copies of the pictures in Hi Rez, just email me,I have sent Richelle and Richie some already, Jamie your email doesn't work ?!!!

There are 16 pictures in total, Richelle features in most, as She is far more photogenic than the Boyz cool

UPDATE - Richie, your email didn't work, all the pictures were returned by your ISP ?!!!

P.S.Shame Koren & Matt couldn't make it yesterday

Glad everyone had fun at Empire Day yesterday. Unfortunately I wasn't able to make it, which is self-evident really tongue Maybe I'll do the one next year...but then again... You see I still have fond memories of the original Empire Days, which in my opinion were far superior. Or maybe that's just because it was where I first met the lovely Mr Richards cool

aah,happy days... a fog-enshrouded railway station... the sound of faraway laughter in the distance... a mysterious stranger lurking in the shadows... a few awkward exchanges and stolen glances... a nervous,fumbling handshake...
and then,oh... that first kiss!


no,wait...

i'm thinking of another time.

I believe I went to an Empire Day just prior the the UK release of TPM. Was a great day even though Ray Park cancelled at the last minute. Gary Kurtz was there and warned us not to get too excited by TPM (and rightly so) and also said he didn't care much for the Special Editions (ironically I then ask him to sign a SE poster tongue ). The highlight of the show, however, was the auction they did which was the first ever auction I had attended and it was great. I very nearly bidded for a broken lightsaber dummy blade from TPM, which was basically and thin broken metal rod painted green and went for £90....a bargin I think grin

Bring back the auction I say, always good value they are. And Jamie to MC too!! wink

Nothing wrong with TPM, I wonder if there was some sour grapes over Gary Kurtz not being involved?!!!

Steve Speilberg raved over TPM, but then what does he know!

Matt, that Empire Day you mentioned is where I first met Jamie, how spooky is that shock Does anyone remember the one they did on the Isle of Wight? That was I think, my first SW convention, around the August bank holiday of 1997 if I remember correctly.

No, but hope you all got the new DVD's with original theatrical release and also Star Wars Lego II video game - great fun.

I see Woolworths are offering a free unique Hasbro Darth Vader with all Star Wars purchases over £10 - anyone seen any other UK offers ?

That is very spooky shock There's a very good chance then that we bumped into each other in that case. Was that one held near Watford?
I think my Uncle won a bid on some Indiana Jones items during the auction, and I also got Raymound Griffiths' autograph, who played a Gonk droid in TPM. These were the days when my Sister came along to the shows, just so that she could take the mickey out of us but she loved it deep down tongue

Free exclusive Hasbro Vader fig with every SW purchase over £10? Damn! And I just bought the Lego Star Wars game the other day and didn't get squat with it! The game is loads of fun though!

Great pics by the way!
