Star Wars Celebration V

June 6, 2010 By 2 Comments

Star Wars Celebration V Coming Soon To A Galaxy Near You!

We are CON*verging in Orlando Florida for the first ever Star Wars Celebration Event in the South East. It will be held in the mightily HUGE and dreaded Orlando Convention Center so we expect to be worn out after this one, but it promises to be a TON of fun. Star Wars biggies will be in attendance including Carrie Fisher, Ray Park and , the big man himself, George Lucas, as well as many other famous faces. We will be showing up as early as possible Friday to get in on the festivities as I am sure there will be a lot to see.

We have Petey, AKA “Bodyhammer” coming for sure , Axl and crew are still undecided, but hopefully the force will be with them and they can make it. We were talking about doing some ultra-secret new Star Wars Characters…..but Ill save that.

Anyway…I am a big-time Star Wars geek since I was 7 years old and saw it for the first time in a theatre that has long since been torn down. I expect to just totally geek out at this con so, I ask for your forgiveness and protection. I could end up with a full-sized X-Wing Fighter Replica in my posession, yet no money to actually get back home, not to mention ship said item. Hmmm…

Anyway if you want to hook up with us, let us know! Just send me and email and we’ll meetcha there!

May the force be with you all. Rock On!
