Star Wars Celebration V: August 12-15, 2010. Orlando, FL

I got a beachball! Cool idea actually.

After Megacon over the weekend I've figured that this con will be HUGE and parking will be a _____!

So, did anyone else get some of the CV beach balls they were giving out at MegaCon? Pretty neat piece of swag, I guess. I'll post pics later.

Nice !

Anyone snag any extras ?

Any 411 on the VIP tix ?

And that is one reason why I'll be staying at the Peabody.

I don't know the price or when they'll be up for sale, but the additional purchase of "VIP" on top of the regular pass will get you some additional goodie bag, plus earlier access to certain areas and likely queue lines separate from the unwashed masses.

DO you think it will be worth it overall?

 

[IrishJedi]

Depending on what they'll end up asking for it, probably. I'd never want to be in a standard line queue at a CELEBRATION. They're Comic-Con like in their ungodly length.

I would...but I'm poor.

I'm starting to believe that I may be very poor by the time August comes around. Damn this economy!!!

Go out and buy something people, seriously!!

I'm considering attending since its such a short drive away and I love all things Empire. Can anyone fill me in on what you actually do at a SW Celebration?

I assume it'll be cool but I'm having a hard time picturing it to be anything other than standing in lines waiting to get autographs as hundreds of people in Stormtrooper/Boba Fett/Darth Vader costumes walk by.

Sounds fun to me.

Maybe I'm burnt out on autographs, but why wait in line for 1 hour to meet some actor and get him to sign something? Most of the time the guys are total douches anyways and don't want to be there. And you have to pay them!

(Inside joke)Meh, buy my autograph but don't look at me. Meh! I'm an artist!!(/Inside joke)

(answering back to inside joke )Meh.....pay 20 bucks for a sig and 300 bucks for a sketch....meh
