    Can someone list star wars conventions for 2006? I was thinking about going to Wizard World which is near me (Missouri) but I'm not sure yet.

    I'm assuming you mean conventions that have SW guests as I don't know that there are any official Star Wars conventions planned for 2006.

    I don't have all the links handy, but some of my favorite conventions are:

    Pittsburgh Comicon in April
    Motor City Comic Con in May
    Fan Expo in Toronto in September
    Dragon*Con in Atlanta in September
    Big Apple Con in November

    Toronto Trek in July doesn't normally have any Star Wars guests...

    I can't think of any others off the top of my head that I normally attend (of course I'm from Rochester, NY so I would travel to different places than you might).

    Well, that's what they called it last year at least - this year its name has changed to Fan Expo and they moved it directly opposite D*Con on Labor Day weekend (1st weekend in Sept). Still in Toronto at least...

    I have been wondering the same thing---Dragon Con is looking pretty good--I have only been to one convention ever and that was C3, and you know one is not enough!!!

    501st, FanForce, and Rebel Legion members are helping put on ALL-CON 2006 in Dallas, March 17-19.

    Jay Laga'aia (Capt. Typho) and Nalini Krishan (Barris Offee) are scheduled to attend, and you can have dinner with them at the con's murder mystery banquet.

    Also, it has the 2nd annual Ms. STAR WARS contest and a separate costume contest with cash prizes, trophies, etc.

    Lots more going on, come join the fun! :D

    There will be a new con in Kansas City, MO in Oct. 2007 that is a multi-media convention but definitely will have a heavy Star Wars influence to it called Daranacon. If you want more info on it, please PM me.
