Aloha Oahu! Rachel from San Diego/Inland Empire here.
After following Vader's World Tour a few years back, Master--Kenobi of the Santa Cruz Fanforce decided to do the same. She is sending her fried Interactive Yoda (who met his doom during a certain scene in Velvet Goldmine) on a US and World tour.
I'm helping her plan the trip, and we are trying to see which Fanforce would like to be apart of this tour.
Care to join us? 
The original planning thread is Here, and a website is in the works. 
~~Cheers
Rachel

Hi, Miana/Rachel!
Just in case you missed it, I posted an initial reply to Master Kenobi's Yoda Tour post string. I'm thinking I'm up to playing host for the powerful green one. Will have to post a follow up there, though.
Already have ideas of how to help Master Yoda enjoy his vacation here.
In any case, thanx for the heads up about this!
Or, as we say in Hawai'i,
Mahalo nui loa!
May the Force be with you.

That's awesome. Mahalo plenty!
The only places I honestly could think of in Oahu would maybe be Pearl Harbor, the old palace, maybe with a statue of Kamehameha. Granted, there's a lot of places that I didn't get to see when I visited the islands.

Brief update.
I spoke to Master--Kenobi yesterday and the website is still being constructed. She's very eager to send the little green guy on his way and is thrilled that so many people are interested. As soon as we get a definite list of groups involved (more keep joining!), then we will start planning out a route for him to travel.
Thanks again!

NEWS:
1) We are putting a cap on joining the tour. The last day to join is next Friday, July 8th. (If any of the other Fanforces in your area wish to join, let them know quick!)
2) Each fanforce will have 2 weeks with Yoda. The 2 weeks will start the day Yoda arrives. We ask that in those 2 weeks you take photos of him in "touristy, famous, or just plain cool" locations, and that he is shipped to the next Fanforce before the 2 weeks are up. We will be sending a logbook around with Yoda. The layout of the book has not been completely decided, yet once we know, you'll know.
3) And lastly, I am going to need a contact person. Someone in the group who will take full responsibility of Yoda and ensure that he is properly shipped off (and will also send the shipping number to either myself or Master--Kenobi, so we can keep track of him.)
IF I DO NOT HAVE A CONTACT PERSON BY THE TIME THE TOUR BEGINS, I AM SORRY TO SAY WE SHALL HAVE TO REMOVE YOU FROM THE TOUR. 
What I need from the contact person:
Name, home adress, email, and phone number. No, I'm not going to sell it online.  Only two people will have a list of contacts: myself and Master--Kenobi. We need your adresses for shipping, email address to say "Hey, he's on his way, hey he's stuck in a blizzard, etc..", and the phone number will be a "just in case."
Please have your appointed contact person PM me with this information.
Thank you all and we're very eager to begin the tour!!

I know I haven't been here long but may I suggest the University of Hawaii at Manoa as a possible site? Several of my labmates are SW fans and we'd be glad to find a good spot on campus for a picture of the illustrious master Yoda.

Rose,
I attended U.H. Manoa for 2 years ('88-'89 & '89-'90) before transferring up to the mainland (USC film school, George Lucas's alma mater!). Since I was born & raised on O'ahu & had season tickets for UH football those 2 years in a row (MANY great memories!), I have a special affection for the Manoa campus.
By all means, I will bring Master Yoda there. Let's arrange an optimal time for you & your friends to meet up with us there. Question is, where would we take pix? The Campus Center is one place strong with the Good Side of the Force. [I used to work at the Bookstore there.] Perhaps that would at least be an ideal place to meet?.........
May the Force be with you.
Jay Tee

I'm going to Hilo July 30-Aug5 and will be touring Volcano National Park. I could take him with me if there was time.

Yoda is in England!!
I am leaving for New Zealand tomorrow, so please direct ALL questions to Master-Kenobi until I get back.
Also, on the issue of The logbook:
A binder is being sent around with Yoda to help record his journeys. Each group will be allowed ONE PAGE to fill up/decorate to your hearts' desires. We ask that only one picture be put on it, as the rest can be uploaded to the website (which is going through SERIOUS technical difficulties at the moment and may not be up as soon as we'd like).
A sample page can be seen HERE.
You will have a place to put a picture, a small tag to indicate the date and other information, a small pocket to hold things, and a space at the bottom to describe his adventure.
We ask that each group PLEASE only uses one page, as we only have enough for one page per group. Also, please do not include any plants or food on the page, since we don't want customs confiscating the book and breathing down our neck about it.
Thanks again!

Jaytee, would you take care of Yoda's visitation here? I'm now tied up with a heavy duty case going to trial, and don't have enough sleep time right now. Thanks much.
