Are there any Freaks willing to pick me up a Hasbro 4-LOM/Zuckuss set at C5? Or two?

I saw those on a few sites like Rebelscum. I don't think anything else has been announced.

Now THAT'S what I'm talking about!!! Vintage action!!!! Those are gonna do real well in the market.
This is what I've been waiting for!!! Cut out the crap of these new packages and just go back to the basics. I LOVE the vintage cardbacks. Can't wait!!!

What do u guys think would be a cool event?
There's a link where people can submit event ideas:
https://www.starwarscelebration.com/en/Events/Fan-Events-Fan-Tables/
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also...I've been debating whether to get a hotel or drive every day from my house from Tampa.....
So this is what I've been thinking.....
1. I'm pretty sure I can have a couple freaks stay at my house for that weekend...free of charge. But the only thing I would ask is if they can help me out with gas and parking money and that they wouldn't murder me.
If we stay at my house....we would have to wake up pretty early since my house is about 1 and 45 minutes away from the convention center and it would be around $13-15 of gas a day (i used an online gas calculator for that estimate). Parking might be a hassle to find...but if we get there earlier enough we'll be fine (i think)....also...I think it's about $11 for parking...but I dunno if there's gonna be a special price for this event.
So that's about $26-30 a day for 4 days....split between me and pitu and who ever else wants to stay in my house.
The only problem I have with this is all the hassle of driving back and forth. But I'll do it if I have too....oh I should also mention that I have a Toyota Corolla so I can fit about 4 people comfortably, 5 people squeezed.
2. The second option is to split a hotel room around the convention center.
That would be about 150-180 a night? More expensive....but we would be with in walking distance and it would only be more affordable if 4 or more of us freaks would stay together.
So yeah...let me know what you guys think?

Are you on the square?
I am hoping on booking a room on Friday---There is one a couple blocks away for $90.00 a night---
There is a place right next to con for more money--
I am willing to share room with freaks as long as they do not cut, rape or kill me.

which convention center is SW Celeb V being held?

It's at the Orange County Convention Center
Bumped the info again.
Bumped the info again.
Since DCFett was talking about the amount of things that he saw at the Celebrations that he attended.....I took it upon myself to investigate the size of the convention center to get a general idea of how big this is gonna be.
I compared the Orange County Convention Center to the one in San Diego. I've been to them both and they both seem pretty big!
OCCC: TOTAL 1,103,538 SQUARE FEET
SDCCC: TOTAL 1,386,122 SQUARE FEET
I know...I know....this might not mean anything... but by seeing that they both have about the same sq footage (SDCCC is bigger tho)....it gives me more confidence that maybe there is gonna be alot of stuff to see and do!
I've been to every Megacon for the last 4 years and they usually do it in Hall C...and altho it's a spec compared to the SDCC....it can pack a shat load of people...(stinky people)
Here are a few pics of last years Megacon so u guys can have an idea of what to expect:

So the same place as Megacon. Some hotel prices on Orbitz are steep.

It hasn't been. You just have to be checking the site. I had a harder time getting the Pimp Destro's that one time than any of the C4 pieces. Even then, later on, SWS.com had them as well.
They will be out there my friend.

Bam, I found a spot at the Wyndam. $65 a night with shuttles to both the Con and Universal included. Check it out. Split that between one or two freaks and it;'s one !
Plus we can all party like rock stars !!!!!! :chew
Let me know. I already booked. They charge one nights stay in June to secure the room so you can book now and if you decide against it, you can cancel in May !

That isn't the final Exhibitors List. Hasbro isn't even listed, and they'll surely be there.
By the way, in case anyone else is going to MegaCon in a couple of weeks: Drop by the 501st booth. Steve Sansweet, Reed Exhibitions, and other official C5 folks will be there to promote C5, answer questions, and listen to suggestions.
I'll be there on Saturday (3/13) and will most likely spend a lot of time at or around that both, though I'll also be floating around and doing PR stuff all over the place.
For those who can't make MegaCon, but have questions/suggestions for Steve and the C5 folks, post them here and I'll pass them along and do my best to get them answered.
