FRIDAY MAY 25 2007 : DAY 03 - OFFICIAL OPENING

 
 

Heading through the main doors. Wow check out that ultra cool star wars shirt :)

Entering the main lobby we discovered a LARGE version of the Hasbro Deluxe Vader. Oh wait, this is the real prop :)
XX

Getting closer to the Fan Fair Hall a HUGE sign of our fave bounty hunter Boba Fett.
XX

Inside the Fan Hall, one thing that really stood out to me being a HUGE LEGO fan was this giant mega Lego Mural. All made from regular Lego bricks, I wonder how long it took them to design this? or how many blocks?

Let's get this show started :) The first task people needed to do was visit with Danielle. Your Hostess with the Mostest :) LOL. I must really let the world know what a MESS the Workshop would have been WITHOUT HER HELP !!! It was luck that brought us into contact with Duke (who won the ILM TOUR) who just happened to be Danielle's boyfriend. The two of them actually became an extreme blessing during the entire weekend.

Let's take a closer look at what you saw (or missed out on if you weren't able to attend the convention) Here is Thursdays Schedule.
XX

The weekends details (Which actually even confused ME when it came time to figure out who many Niub Tshirts to give away LOL) Ewoks aren't the smartest creatures you know :)
XX

Monday's closing Day extravaganza. Including the infamous take what you can giveaway. This year we decided to give more to the kids then just leave the adults ransack and take everything on the table. Which someone actually did :( We had a unoppened case of Luke Figures that Hasbro had given me to share with our worker staff which was hidden all the way under the tables. Someone actually crawled UNDER 20 rows of tables, found the box and excaped with it. NICE !!! Lucky for us NOT ALL fans are as Barbaric. He must be one of the ones that LIVE in MOS EISLEY SPACEPORT :P
XX

The most fun for me was coming up with the Ewok Landscaping I.D. Badges. Had I know just how popular these would have been, I would have had to make 5,000. Instead we had but 400 to last the entire weekend. When you received your badge, you could FLIP IT to see if you had one of the Lucas company logos on the back.
XX

Depending which you found, you could then claim a prize, T-Shirts, Caps, Mugs, PS2, Nintendo, Xbox Star Wars video games and Hasbro Toys. A HUGE HUGE HUGE Thanks at John for pulling strings at LucasArts, Mary and David at Lucasfilm for finding me a ton of cool pirzes and allowing me to realise this crazy idea of mine LOL.

If people got a plain card back, there were still TWO other prizes they could win...
