  1. Great list! With so many of those living over here in the States, I'll go with a more English list... John Mollo and/or Ron Beck Norman Reynolds Gil Taylor - health permitting Robert Watts - health permitting Leslie Dilley Alan Tomkins Colin Kitchens Ronnie Taylor and/or Geoff Glover Roger Christian (as long as no one mentions Battlefield Earth!)
  2. Any more word on when he'll be there. I sense a great disturbance in the Force...as if he will no show yet again...
  3. Wow. She might want to raise her standards a wee bit. :)
  4. Al Leong was also in Big Trouble in Little China I think, which would tie in nicely with some previous SM guests. Still hoping they get Dennis Dun to reschedule!
  5. Cutting back I see Marky. :) Have fun at the show mate...I saddled a few other poor guys with my stuff so you're off the hook this time.
  6. Question for Showmasters - we're hearing there will be a 5 item limit for Lawson. If someone has a Gold Pass, will they be able to get 5 each time they go back through the line, or will it be 5 total for the day? If someone could clear this up ASAP it'd be appreciated!! Thanks again for the great guest!
  7. I agree 100%! It would be great to get Hagon, Chapman and especially Drewe Henley out for a reunion!
  8. AMAZING. What a guest!! I can hear many wallets around the world crying out right about now...
  9. Hey maybe SM are being sneaky and it's in fact a stunt-double who has merely stood in for a certain character(s) who appeared in the OT? Well if that's the case then maybe it's just Colin Skeaping being rescheduled. :)
  10. Holy crap...they did it. They got Lawson. I think I might shed a tear!! Let's not forget Wedge was the only Rebel pilot aside from Luke seen in all three major battles (Yavin, Hoth, Endor). Quite frankly I think Wedge did a heck of a lot more in the grand scheme of the story then some of you are giving him credit for.
  11. I would love for this to be a big first time OT guest, I'm pretty sure it will end up being Ahmed Best. The newsletter announcement was timed almost exactly with Best signing on with Coolwaters for appearances.
  12. He was probably hung over - my buddy got him pretty pissed last night. :)
  13. Great photos! Katee looks amazing, the cast of "Being Human" seem very warm - and love the Doctor Who shirt. Can't wait to meet Glover when he comes here for Celebration 5 next month!
  14. Just an fyi that it might be an England first, but Richard signed last month at Florida SuperCon and is signing next weekend out in Hollywood. http://topics.abcnews.go.com/photo/05kn2qE2CP2Uz I love Showmasters and their events - but don't want them to get any heat from misrepresenting something.
  15. Posters are like children - if you wait until you can afford one, you'll never have one.
  16. Not sure about the stalls as I've never been to LFCC. We usually put a pvc pipe within a traditional poster tube to keep it in good shape though.
  17. Posters are quite an undertaking - but to me the most rewarding aspect of my autograph collection. There's just something about a long term project like a poster that makes it a bit more special than a stack of 8x10s. They're expensive, you worry about them all the time and inevitably someone will sign where you don't want them to. However when you get the finished product, it's all worth it in my opinion. Here's a photo of my ESB for inspiration...currently being looked after by my buddy Abstract. http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b206/abs...rmony/016-4.jpg I've been working on it personally for four years, though the previous owner started it at Celebration II back in 2002.
  18. Anyone remember what he charged last time for autographs? I'd love to meet him!
  19. Those schedules helped me! Thank you very much. Nice to see so many options for the return as well. I'm looking especially for the fastest way to get there as my EuroStar train from Brussels doesn't arrive in London until around noon that day. It's going to be a bit of a race getting to MK from then on!
  20. Couldn't have put it better myself my friend! Who knew my trip to Tunisia would be one of the LEAST expensive things I do that's Star Wars related this year! An amazing year for SW autograph collecting!
  21. Hmmm...everything I can find for him online lists his SW experience as being a Stormtrooper in ROTJ and that's it. Seemed he was rumored to have been involved in the sail barge scene as a henchman but told people that he never traveled to the US. I need him on my Raiders poster regardless - but I'd think if he was the guy who got shot in these photos he would have mentioned it previously. If you'd met Malcolm at the previous event and spoken to him you would know that his memory is hazy to say the least. He remembers very little of his work, especially the stuff from 30+ years ago. As Nick Gillard put it 'Malcolm has been dropped on his head a lot during his career'. Anyway, as far as this role is concerned, another star wars fan, having met Malcolm, noticed that this character looked rather a lot like him. The pictures were passed on to Malcolm, and he confirmed it is him in them, although he has little to no memory of his time on the film (ditto aliens, jedi etc etc). Sometimes finding out who played what takes a bit more detective work than just what you can find online. Sorry to have offended Graham... :) As a poster guy, it's just a bit frustrating sometimes trying to nail down who did what on which movie - not saying Malcolm was "Lightning Bear"-esque, but was curious. Sadly I haven't been able to meet him as being in the States I don't get over often. It will be nice to meet him - and you - at CM 16 though. Thanks for clearing it up - I'll just ask you direct in the future!
