Hard to believe that it's a year ago today that ROTS was released on DVD and a number of us queued outside HMV in Oxford Street to see Anthony Daniels and be the first to get our hands on the DVD.
Was a fun day meeting with Darkshredi (Charlie), Richie, Matt (Lord Tice) of course, Jedi Jimbo, even Raj and Serj were there!!! Of course we were entertained by the mad autograph collector from Scarborough and his wig! One of us was even sad enough to be first in the queue also!!!  Do you all remember the goodie bag of posters, T-Shirt and Darth Vader Mask etc. ? Does anyone have any pictures of the 500 odd Darth Vader mask wearing fans at the event?

I never managed to get hold of a press photo of all the Vader masks sadly, just our personal ones:
Was a good day and I remember it well, especially Mr.Scarbourgh and his friend, lol.

I believe that it may have been a Shredded Wheat actually!!!! After Charlie saw Mr Scarborough at MI III in Leicester Square, I forgot to mention that I saw his friend at Wimbledon on Ladies final day (although he only came in for free as we were all leaving at about 8pm!!! he recognised me, but I managed to escape without harm!
Good to hear from you Charlie (P.S.have not forgotten your DVD  )
Hey Matt, surely with all your influence and contacts you could track down the press photos of all the Darth Vader masks?!!!

And the photo of the shredded wheat one, hahaha.
The public must be warned of such a threat such as he.

No camera was insured against his image Koren, however I do have some video somewhere of the event and I could always do a screen grab for a laugh! 
He was a danger to himself and others - however it is an important point you make and the Public must be warned

Nothing wrong with TPM, the shops were all open at Midnight to sell it here and lots of people were about and got a free Darth Maul poster from Virgin also 
ROTS dvd launch was cool though, shame Koren and Matt couldn't make it
I wonder if it will be Serj's last public appearance?!!!

always good to see that Raj is back on the scene.
I expect that your tutor was only jealous and I am surprised that he didn't confiscate the Vader mask for himself
