Bounty Hunter Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Irvin Kershner lives in the US, in California. I've had the pleasure of working with him on two occassions already. He's the most pleasant guy you could ever meet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bounty Hunter Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 I just got the first confirmation! You are going to love this guy as he's never done a show before. He doesn't live in England and isn't even in the movie business anymore. That's all I can say at this time. I'm sure Jason (whom I've already informed and provided with a photograph) will announce this guest shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lee_c00per Posted May 10, 2006 Author Share Posted May 10, 2006 I know of another guest who is attending but not going to say who it is as it's up to showmasters to confirm it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bounty Hunter Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 Nice. I also got my first 'no' as well. Brigitte Kahn who played Torryn Farr in ESB will not be attending - neither will she at any upcoming event (hence my announcement). She has no interest in attending fan events. Sorry!

Guest Dr jones Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Bountyhunter - the guest you were talking about was it one or both of the rebel hoth troopers that have been annouced? Or is it someone else new that hasnt been announced? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bounty Hunter Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Well, Dr Jones, they are not from Scotland, but both from Norway. I was able to secure two of the Hoth Troopers and am looking into getting two more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they take on Kamay Lau - come on showmasters get kamay shes been offered to you!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannyboy Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 I saw Kamay Lau on the conventionguests site and also Martin Bou Mansor, can anyone familiarise me with what else he did? The name is very familiar and im told he did a segment for the dvd or Star Wars website aswell, will he be a guest anyway??? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamie1138 Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 those two hoth troopers are from norway? the poor fellas... all that time in the frozen wastes of finse. i can just imagine it. the empire location shoot crew get back to blighty and nobody bothered to do a roll-call. they'd been forgotten... until now.

Bounty Hunter Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 or were they a couple of locals roped into a bit of filming.oh... 974309[/snapback] Most of the Hoth Troopers were part of a force of volunteers of the Red Cross in Drammen (near Oslo). As for Finse, I plan to go there myself next April It's going to be great, I think... (I hope). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamie1138 Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 (edited) that was it! i remember it being said that they were some kind of search/rescue team from the norweigen army or something. good for them! and well done you for getting them!!! i feel a drawing coming on.

Bounty Hunter Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 Jamie, forgive me, but I'm not a native speaker as you know. What does this expression mean? 'I feel a drawing coming on' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamie1138 Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 hahaha... nothing sinister- i fancy myself as a bit of a wannabe artist and i amassed some photo references of various troopers for an abandoned project a while ago. (*) after reading about the latest announced guests i 'felt a drawing coming on' and dug out the photos to start work. hence,the term 'feel a drawing coming on.'! *on the supremely talented matt skiltons' website,he has a similar illustration to the one i had planned. except his is better.

sweatybobby1 Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Does Lewis McLeod (think thats how you spell it) ever do sighnings? I wrote to him the other week and he just sent my letter and picture back! Very rude,but i still want his autograph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannyboy Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 I belive Martin Bou Mansor is also a photographer so not sure if that has connections with star wars? Bring on Kamay Lau!!!! Im not sure what other connection Martin has with Star Wars (apart from being one of the Naboo Guards of course!) but his name is familiar and was featured in one of the documentaries im sure, he's on the CG site along with Kamay Lao. I have to admit im not too eager for more Hoth troopers so my ED17 wish list (for now) is: Martin BouMansor Kamay Lao Friday Wilson Anyone agree?
