Title: A very fortunate encounter...
Post by: Rapine on November 06, 2016, 07:03:42 PM
We went to the Forest City ComiCon this Saturday!

There, we met this guy:

RevanReborn disguised as a Jedi

That was amazing!!  :) ;D

The con was alright.  The venue was great, but there really wasn't a lot to see.  No 501st, Dr. Who, or Ghostbusters exhibits.  There was a Dalek though.

There were ample vendors - as per normal - and a couple of excellent displays, but even the celebs were smaller ones.  No real big names.

We only really saw a handful of really good costumes too.  Lots of people were dressed up, just not great - if you get me.

Hanging/nerding out with Revan was spectacular though, and none of that really mattered.

There were a few tense moments where we weren't sure they'd let Rev have his saber, but some hand wavium solved that...lol

Like I said, RR and I just walked around and talked a lot.  I need to thank MM for being patient.  ::)

I didn't get many pics at all, but got a few:

Boba Fett

Lord Canterbury tasked us to get pics of the Optimus Prime display, so we did:

There you go Lord C. :)

As with any con, seeing the looks of wonder on the kids face's is the greatest thing.

A few will have really good lifelong memories, I think...

RevanReborn a Jedi? Those are some really cool pics, looks like you had more fun today than I have had!
(There was a small Sci-Fi Con in my town but couldn't afford it!  :( )

On a side note Lord Rapine, Cheetara may like my new design. ;)

RevanReborn as a Jedi isn't so hard to believe.  After all, Revan was both.  ;)

Great pics, someone had some nice Boba Fett armor.  I love the Optimus Prime pics, even if it is the Michael Bay version.  ;)
