Greetings! You have taken your first step into a larger world!

Welcome to the San Jose CA Fanforce forum. The San Jose CA fanforce emcompasses the South Bay area near San Jose. Here you can meet fellow fans in your area and plan meetings and events. If you are interested in joining this group, please post here. To help us learn a little about you, please post a little information about yourself:

Name: (First is fine)
Age: (No Cheating)
Location:(City where you live)
SW Related Interests:
Non-SW Related Interests: {So we know what other activites you might like)
How did you get started on SW: ("Hello, My Name is Jennifer, & I've been a SW addict since I was 7. . ." - It's fun to share this one).

Let me start off: My name is Linda, I live in San Diego, and I am one of the Regional Support Administrators (RSA) for the Pacific Region of FanForce. The other RSA is Shawn (SRB_Jedi_Knight) and he is from Orange County CA. The Pacific Region encompasses California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Alaska, and Hawaii. I am 38 and the mother of three children, Leia is 15, Lauren is 12, and Collin is 9. I collect anything and everything with the name Star Wars on it, pictures of my collection can be seen in my Bio. I have also read each and every Star Wars adult novel, and some of the comic books. I also have built/converted a few lightsabers, and currently have both Jedi Robes, a Royal Guard Costume, and two sets of stormtrooper armor. I am also currently working on a Boba Fett costume and X-Wing pilot costume. After that I'll be doing an Imperial Officer, Rebel Trooper, and Mara Jade of course. Other than Star Wars I am interested in Nelson DeMille Novels, Computers, traveling, and flying planes. I have been a fan of Star Wars since opening day back in May of 1977 at the age of 11.

Your turn!

Name: Steven
Age: Oh alright. Im 13.
Location: Los Altos
SW Related Interests: Everything really
Non-SW Related Interests: Sports, building models, watching TV, Video games, music, pretty much everything. silly
How did you get started on SW: Umm, I think I first got really involved with star wars when they were making the little figures of the characters. My brothers and some friends have played a game for 13 years now called "Model Wars" in which we make model airplanes, tanks, trucks, ships, and space ships. My army has usually consisted of Sci-Fi things because I collected many star wars figurines when I first started playing. My character in these Model Wars is "Han Solo" and my brother, is Grand Admiral Thrawn. He also has many star wars figures. I have things from the Prequels and Original Trilogy, and he has lots from the EU.

BTW, I check out those pictures in your profile MJF, and this was my reaction >>>

plain [face_shocked] happy [face_shocked] grin [face_shocked] [face_shocked]

Well sorta... silly

How did you get started on SW: I don't remember when I started loving Star Wars but it's been since I first saw the trilogy I'm sure. The release of the prequels drew me in even more, and I have been with the front-line groups at Century 21/22 for the first two movies and plan being there for the 3rd.

If anyone else on the boards was there, I was sporting Darth Maul garb for the Ep. 1 premiere and Anakin garb for Ep. 2, some spruced up photos of which can be found here


Will be around these boards off and on wink

Wow, looks like we suddenly started getting people interested last month.

OK, do we actually want to try to start a real club? We'd have to meet in real life.

PM me.

Just a note for your newly forming club that SF Fan Force as your neighbhors to the north will have your back. I also have some friends in your neck of the woods that would probably love to talk shop with a new up and coming SJ Fan Force, Rogue Six being one of them. If you guys need anything we can totally coordinate and help one another out. So as you guys grow bigger I'm sure we can have tons of awesome events together. happy

I'm from the Denver-based RMFF group, and recently moved back out here to the Bay Area. I thought I'd check the Pacific board to see if there was a local group, and found you guys! I'm headed out the door right now, actually, so I'll have to write up the rest of the introduction a bit later. I just wanted to poke my head in to say hi.
