    Just got back into town (it raining! Cool!) and I am so bummed I missed the meeting, there was so much incredible stuff there (and freebies!) that I wanted to share with you guys. I will send the best pictures to Lor to get on the website (space permitting).

    Suffice to say, I'm definitely planning on attending next year. The San Diego chapter was very cool, got autographs of Jeremy Bulloch, Amy Allen (Aayla Secura), John Morton (Dak), others that were there included Daniel Logan, Kenny Baker, Steve Sanweet, and Mark Hamill. Hasbro had a panel of there new line for 2004 and a huge display, Lucas Arts, SW Insider, Del Rey, the list goes on. Oh, yeah..there were comics there too.. :D

    PS. I met one of the guys who runs SirStevesGuide.com who summarized a lot of the Hasbro info and Comicon updates. He also gave me a great form letter we can mail to Target/ToysRUS/Walmart etc. in order to start getting some figures in the stores..I've got a hard copy, but I believe he's posted on the website. Very nice guy, BTW.

    I think I've inspired Gary to get a stormtrooper outfit after seeing the 501st in action...we definitely need some bad guys around here. I think I may start on a Imp costume as well...

    you know he should sotp by Sunday...

    I know that Gecko is going to get armor and lor is wanting to get armor as well. I think I overheard them saying something about buying together...

    We defiantly need some more troopers...

    I think our darkside is going to out weigh our good side soon...

    My other costume is going to be the outfit I want for my RPG character Sicila Kula... I have always wanted to make a costume for her... it will be close to Mara but have her own twist-seeing as for my background she comes from a privliaged family and all on Corellia... but I will probably be able to incorptae some of my Sith Costume in it

    And one day... one day i will be having a Leia's salve outfit made but of course it will be in black and silver... but that isn't to surprising...

    I so excited- I am finally going to have bracers! yeah!

    So wonderful meeting the two of you at ComiCon. I'm the bald guy (Armand) who was always turning people away at the end of the Boba Fett figure line (yeah, great job).

    If the rest of the group is as cool as this, you have one heckuva neat bunch.

    Armand-

    Thanks to you and the SDSWS for being such great hosts! I wish I could've met more of your group, but I had a great time talking to you (and bugging you about the Boba Fett line) and hope we can do a joint Fanforce retreat somewhere. Hope you've recovered from the weekend!!!!!! :D
