[escapist]

Damn and big bollocks. I left my memory chip at home so cant post up pic's yet. Bugger.

Good photo's escapist. The funny thing is although you didnt know who any of us were you have managed to capture a few of us in your pics.

The first pic with R2 you got my daughter(red head), my leg (comin out the guy with the blue shirt on's arse, Mumbo's son (kid with blonde hair) and junior chubbs son (kid in white t shirt)

The pic with the 3 stormtrooper's pointing at you, Mumbo looks like he's getting punched in the face!!

Well done mate, love the pics.

Haha oh dear!! oh well next time i'll know who I'm looking out for!!!! Hopefully will make FFIV this year....

Junior, your pics are awesome man!!! I saw you dressed as Han but didn't think to say hello. Obviously reading back you mentioned you would be... fail!!

Great pics Chris. Love the last one, you have a look of sheer terror (i think thats what that face is!! :lol: ) in front of your niece. She was quite fearsome with that gun!!! :lol:

 

[Grant_C]

So cool.

 

[mumbo]

Great pics 8) will hopefully have mine up tomorrow providing I can get access to a pc/laptop.

Escapist I had assumed you didn't make it, such a shame we didn't hook up, I remember seeing your boy running around enthusiastically and thats a great pic with Jeremy.

Still buzzing from a great night and the kids have been playing with their prize toys all day, Felix has even taken his to bed

Mumbo I've just got some pics through from the guy Dara we were talking to of my little one with various stormies and a couple with Boba Fett. To say I am a proud dad and have a tear in my eye is an understatement. She is a Star Wars nutter like me and looks like she's having so much fun in them. Ill try and put a couple up with mine tomorrow. Doing a lot of this at the moment!!

Great stuff I look forward to seeing them and I'm with you all the way on the proud parent front our littlens all had such a fantastic time, their love of star wars will only have grown stronger after that experience your daughter (forgive me I've forgotten her name ) was so feisty, continually battering the stormies and vader with her saber :lol: So glad we went.

Could I get Dara's email address as I would like him to send me the pics he took too, cheers :wink:

Was a brilliant evening.

I had the pleasure of kitting Jeremy up in his costume.
A night I will not forget for a while.

Was great to meet you chaps and hopefully the 501st may have some new members :wink:

Burnsy, I kept meaning to ask you (and it may be a daft question, so forgive me if it is!)- was it the original Boba Fett costume from the films, or is it a new outfit made specifically for appearances like this? I understand Jeremy has only donned the outfit a couple of times since appearing in ROTJ... so it must have been an amazing moment. What a great tale to tell...!

And it's always a pleasure seeing photos of the 501st Garrison- hope to get to meet some of them in person one day. Keep up the good work :wink:

 

[JuniorChubb]

Apparently JB's outfit was put together by fans and given presented to him at some point in the past...

Can't remember who told me this but someone told me while I was at Toys R Us

 

[TC-14]

Aha! Cheers for the info, Junior - much appreciated

Awesome Mumbo...

How did you get Jr Jr to pose for a picture :shock:

He usually shy's away from the dressed up characters when its photo time...

 

[mumbo]

I'm pretty sure Rex persuaded him and he is clearly thrilled to be standing with one of his heroes

 

[TC-14]

Great stuff, Mumbo- those Luke and Leia costumes are spot on no wonder they cleared up with the prizes!

 

[maniac79]

Thanks for sharing all the pics, lads. Really awesome.
