Holy **** man, I come to have a look what Hot Toys figures people are talking about in the thread and you're here telling the story of a lifetime !!Pedro was awesome. I bumped into him accidentally as I was taking pics and we just started talking for a few. He was with a friend and I asked if he could take a photo with us and Pedro just said, "let me take the selfie with you" and took my phone and started taking selfies with us
As far as Kathleen, I ran into her first. As soon as I got in with Terrio and Chewie, I said my goodbyes with them and saw her standing right in front of me talking to Frank Oz and John Williams. While I completely dislike the ST, I'm not the type of nerd to get all hyped up about my displeasure and would rather just not pay it no mind. So I didn't see red when I saw Kathleen. As I walked up, she was just finishing up with Frank and John and I just made a total sarcastic joke by calling her Connie and asked what it was like being Kathleen's sibling. The backstory to that is before the movie, when her and Bob Igor spoke to the crowd, she had mentioned people always get her and her sister confused so I used that as my ice breaker and she was a total sweetheart.
I could see her brain turning as she was trying to think if she knew me but we had a good chat just BS'ing about all the actors and vehicles displayed there, in the after-party. I probably took the most photos with her just because I knew it was gonna be such a random and hilarious moment in my life. I actually excused myself since I didn't really have much more to say to her and I knew there was still a lot to soak in and that my time in there was gonna be short. I was in there for a total of about 40 min but JJ hadn't shown up as I was getting kicked out yet, so I didn't get to meet him
Christ was there anyone not there at the party ?? (other than JJ)
Amazing details + experience man ! Sounds like it was meant to happen !
I also give Captain Trips #3 question, "The question of the day" award.
