Celebration VI Confirmed - Orlando August 23-26, 2012

[Haloid1177]

For the people that went to Celebration V, does the dealer room have non-SW merchandise? And if so, what? I'm getting together my shopping list for CVI and want to know if I could find any Hot Toys figures there.

I'm about to pre-purchase a Mark Hamill autograph ticket through Official Pix but it didn't ask me to choose a day. Is that normal?

My Celebration ticket is for Saturday, I just show up Saturday and can use my ticket for the autograph no matter how many other people are purchasing them on that day?

From Official Pix:
"For our guests with special tickets (Ian McDiarmid, Carrie Fisher, Kenny Baker, etc) we will have numbers on the autograph tickets based on the order in which you placed your order with us online, or purchased at the event (ie: 0001, 0002, etc). At the front of these special guest queues, we will place a marker board indicating the current ticket numbers being served. We will start each day with 1-200, and raise the numbers (1-400, 1-800, etc) to keep the queue full throughout the day."

Since you are preordering, I don't see why you wouldn't have a problem getting it on Saturday.

I don't recall seeing anything non-Star Wars. CVI is fairly small compared to SDCC, so there isn't a lot of variety at the booths.

We don't even bet booth babes.

Can't wait for CVI...

25 more days!​

It's hard to believe we are down to the three week mark later this week.

I wonder if I am screwed to have not purchased one yet ?

But we get surrounded by Star Wars goodness, people with a definitive love for Star Wars and Star Wars Cosplay galore !

Wait ! You are going right ? So Why aren't you just pre-ordering?

I actually had that thought...

I think he had a clinical or something scheduled during that time, but I could be wrong.



Got my passes Saturday!!!

Now I just need to score some pre-order prints!!!

 

[jimjimmyjones85]

Wait bro, are you only going Saturday ? I'm confused !

 

[gibby]

I received my passes on Saturday. Sorry.

 

[furystorm]

gibby is right. Clinical. Plus, I have a slight feeling this preorder is going to degrade into a debacle...

"I have a very bad feeling about this."

 

[Darth Waller]

Someone is selling a Jedi Knight badge on eBay. Currently at $662 with 5 days to go.

 

[gibby]

Wow.

I hope we don't see the same with the CVI posters after the pre-order.

 

[Darth Waller]

I would've loved to have gotten one, but they gave CV Knights and Masters first dibs.

So now you're not going

I don't think it will be that bad. I hope not anyway.

Acme servers to date have been pretty good.

 

[Darth Waller]

He's still coming. I think he means he won't be available during preorder.
