i wouldn't have a problem with that at all. it's a hell of a lot cheaper than paying for my own ass to get out there. let me know if you decide to go through with that idea, and count me in (especially if it moves my name up a few notches on the ladder for the goods... wink, wink)  ;)

Thanks for the update Matt!

I'd be willing to pitch in a few bucks for Patty to tag along and grab me a Silver Sandtrooper... I'd like one of those too, but I understand about the exclusive SW stuff being in higher demand ;)

Thanks!

So you and Mr. Jawa will only be there on Friday, Tammy?  And how old is Mr. Jawa now?  I wanna guess about 11...  (just so I have a better idea on what to look for)


Mr Jawa is now 13 years old :o. We'll most likely be in theJawa.com and Sandtroopers.com T-shirts.

Yeah Matt, I was completely serious.  If she can bare it, we can split it out however you want.  I'll even throw in a full day's admission if she can handle more than one day.  No big if she declines, I could certainly understand why in her case.  You guys do lots to help out, least I can do to pay back.

Re: 2004 San Diego Comic Con - Who's going?

So, who all's going, and exactly what days are you going to be there?  This is the tentative list I've got so far:

Me:  Wed - Sun
Jared:  Wed - Sun
Ricardo:  Saturday
Robert:  What day(s)?
Jamie:  Wed - Fri
Jobe:  What day(s)?
Josh:  Wed - Sun
Ook:  Wed - Sun
Sharon:  Wed - Sun
Tammy:  Friday
Bob:  Thurs - Sun

Tom, are you not going?

I was thinking of trying to have a late lunch get-together on Saturday afternoon (and possibly Thurs/Fri as well).  Plus, I'm up for hanging out any night after the show.  Anyone up for lunch, or a late drink?  We'll try to get something set up for a little JD pow-wow, and to "talk shop", so if you're interested, just LMK...   8)

Yeah I'm not going this year been trying to save a (extra) little money for C3 so I can go to that. (Hopefully some dealers has BBD and BPD there  ;)).  
Also you don't have to worry about adding me to your list of people trying to bum stuff off of you since hopefully my cousin can get me the Sandtrooper and Luke Bust.
