Florida_Phil Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Well it's just about that time of year again. Who's going to Dragon*Con, and who plans to be in their Sandtrooper for a group picture before the parade? Me, I'll be there with dirt on!

SethB6025 Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 I'm up for a shot, maybe after the parade though. I'm marching with TCF in my Battlestar stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 I'm up for a shot, maybe after the parade though. I'm marching with TCF in my Battlestar stuff. So you'll be at the TCF party Sat. Night also then?? and how come I never made the connection before that you were here too hahaha <- Sweetness on TCF boards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SethB6025 Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Yup, "Mariachi" here! I actually got that one because I carry my DLT-19 around in a guitar bag. I will be at the fleet party, early doing set-up and late doing tear-down. I opted to do the parade in that vs. the trooper, as I had a nearly bad experience at the C2 Saturday morning parade. The whole hot inside armor/helmet + hangover/not much sleep = me super nauseated. It took all I had not to barf in my bucket that morning, especially when we were right next to a Subway in the hotel lobby. Yeech! Plus its their first year in the parade, I'll be marching with 501st next year, maybe with a great big MEPD banner. I figure at the rate we're going at least half of the Legion's stormtroopers will be MEPD sandtroopers by then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a couple months away from being Sandie again (just got a TE helmet, still working my BFG, and need a backpack) and didnt make MEPD requirements before I cleaned off. I dont really wanna wear armor again until its back dirty. So next year I should be behind that banner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tk7602 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Hey man, when you've got good taste you're consistent. i guess so. i feel bad about ditching TCF for the parade, but i already committed to going with the browncoats before i joined up over there. but the same heat thing holds true. i did TK and Boba at dragoncon, and tusken at disney. i'm good with a no mask costume this year.
