Worldcon in Los Angeles has asked for a showing by Road Squadron for their display room, similar to what we did for C3. It will be at the Anaheim Convention Center (across the street from Disneyland), August 23-27th. www.laconiv.org/Everyone is welcome, but this might only be feasible to those within convenient driving distance. If Red 5 is still around, there was talk of maybe having her shipped down for a final display (unless she's up for one last long distance drive). I'm going, and possibly Sandy's "Falcon" car. Damien has expressed an interest as well. We can have all the space we want, to do anything we want. Even a car mod workshop if we so decide. They're offering free membership (worth $200). Plus, you'd get to see Colleen and I in our "Lux After Dark" Moulin-Rouge-inspired show.  LMK if you are interested/have questions. |

Wow, sounds like a fun show! I'll try and go at least for a day, but there's no way my car would be don by then...

Hey, Shawn,
LOng time no hear. This is Sandy. Count me in for World - Con. I e-mailed you a while back to ask about it, but never got a response. I would love to hear from you about all details. Please keep in touch. I am new to this forum thing, so bear with me. I will be going to Disneyland this weekend for Star Wars Fan Day, so maybe I will see you there.

Shawn, would really like the Starfighter to make her debut there. She is in the shop for repairs now. Once I get the basic graphic designs we are ready to start in. Already working on getting the droid and buzzdroids.
So put me down also...

Hi all,
Hey Obi Shawn, is there any more information on this convention, meaning where do we meet, what day the cars need to be set up, getting our creditals and such. How soon till we know anything.
Not to be a bother, but just asking. Very excited about this event.
Thank you, and
MTFBWY

Hey Shawn, the last post is the same for me. I left a message on your cell phone last night. I don't want to disturb you at work and you must be busy with the Lux theater group too. But we need some information about getting the cars there. Please answer these posts.
If you lost my phone number, let me know on this thread. Thanks
Sandy

Hi everyone,
Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Sandy Deacon, and I have the Millennium Falcon carfighter. I am on the Fan Force boards by the name HanChewie, which is a different spelling than here. I belong to the Inland Empire Fan Force and a group called The Jedi Knights. I understand that RobbiewanKenobi is on the fan force boards, and wonder if it is OK to PM him on those boards? Thank you for letting me introduce myself to everyone.
MTFBWY
Sandy

Well, we've discovered that Worldcon is a different beast than our local LosCon conventions.
If it were just run by the Los Angeles crowd, we'd have had all the space we want and free admissions for each car crew. But Worldcon, with so many cooks from different locations to spoil the broth, can't do things simply, so we've been squeezed out by other displays/people.
To his credit, Jerome Scott from displays fought pretty hard for us, even trying to get us in the CC courtyard when we got squeezed from the display room, but the CC didn't go for it, and we don't want to just display in the parking lot.
Sad, really- I was looking forward to having a bunch of us represent. Instead, it sounds like people got hosed.
Sorry all that tried to make this...
