WonderCon ReCap
« on: March 02, 2009, 01:09:21 PM »
WonderCon 09 has been the single most fun experience in my life and it has launched a plethora of costume ideas and future conventions for me :)

This Year I plan to attend - Emrald City Comic Con, Portland Comic Book Show, and ComicCon

Of the Nearly 300 photos we took - 200 have made it to my myspace, and my 15 (Too Hard to pick ten) favorites are going to be posted here... along with this great video for Kyle.

Sadly, we wern't able to :(

He was part of the Costume Ball, and they wouldn't let us back to see them - we missed an awesome Predator too for this same reason.... but I took the video for you. The costume was awesome!

Yes there was lots of Golden Gate Activity there.
Mark, the LCO, was there doing his vader thing,
loads of clones, some tks, and all kinds of random goodness.
There are many 501st photos on Pepito's myspace. Check em out

They sure werre, I met quite a few 501st folks, including a really good Mara, Zam, and Boush. We also saw two different R2 units, that were amazing, and a Jawa did the worm across the stage at one point :)

I love Felicia Day!

 Us too, she was uber nice - On a side note she is going to get little yipper dogs that she intends to name Nacho and Pepito :)
