    Star Wars Celebration V- Photos!

    Spent the last 4 days up to my eyeballs in Star Wars, with a Flip Camcorder in hand. Below are stills taken throughout the last 4 days. Thought you all might get a kick.

    Beware though... many many large photos:













    Day One at the Lego Mural... if you participated you got a free white Boba Fett Minifig. They are on ebay now for about $26 a piece.



    Day Four at the Mural... it's complete!



    The most AWESOME Jedi of them all... AN EWOK JEDI? NO! It's an EWOK SITH LORD!




    I think Lucas was calling us fat.



    Day One Chalk drawing



    Day Two at the chalk drawing



    Day Three



    And Day Four with the most awesome reveal if you following the Clone Wars... Darth Maul's brother is a new apprentice.













    Captain Typho entertains us while we wait in a 3 hour line... to get into the regular line?



    On the regular line, Anthony Daniels comes by shake hands, pose for pics and taunt us. He's really nice to little kids who want to show off for him.









    Welcome to O' Lando!



    Every man for himself... straight to the Gentle Giant booth to try for a Boba Fett...again!











    Ralph McQuarrie Vader poses for pics in front of the RMQ Gallery.







    G4 TV's Echobase Ice Bar!











    Let's go meet those crazy ILM guys!







    Even the Empire has ProWrestling!



    Man Blair from G4's AOTS meets Anthony Daniels... while I wait in line for that darn Fett!







    George Lucas poses for publicity pics... but don't YOU take a pic of him. But you CAN take a pic of the pic of him?





    Sneaky sneaky... Baby Boba Fett (Daniel Logan) cuts ahead of the line to snag a Boba Fett who he hands off to his handler with the help of Man Blair from G4



    Here G4 Tapes a segment where supposedly Daniel Logan is DENIED a Fett because they are sold out.



    Here Baby Fett as I began to call him poses for pics for anyone who wants to, for free. Odd... one of the few freebies with an actor and it HAS to be Baby Fett.

              Cool pics. I actually like the McQuarrie Vader. Did you score any of those mini-cereal boxes?

                The one man trilogy was AWESOME. If you love Star Wars you NEED to see him live. We taped it, but it doesn't do it justice.

                As far as the Cereal Boxes, we scored:

                Greedos
                Grape Hutts
                Fetties
                and Hothed Flakes

                  Ahhhhhh... Star Wars---

                  Great pics. Made me feel like I was there, but I definitely want a more clear explanation of the George Lucas picture thing...

                      On the day Lucas was there, everyone in the general admission line was forced to wait until he had a semiprivate tour of the convention floor. Semi-private, since dealers, and other folks with access other than general (Jedi Master packages, etc). He liked the Belgium's 501st Garrision life sized dios, and the Jabba dio so he posed for publicity photos.

                      I guess people were herded away, but afterwords you could photograph the laptop screen they purposely left up with their photo of him.

                      George Lucas even autographed the semi-life sized AT-AT from what we saw on the last day, for the Garrision.
