    Just want to get an idea if we have any people here going to Fan Expo Toronto 2012 this year!

    What costumes will you be wearing/bringing?

    What days are you coming?

    What are you most excited about seeing?




    I know I will be going! As a TK (Stormtrooper) and Mr. Cap Harkness!

    I'll be there for the 4 days.
    The last few years I've worn a TNG uniform with an attempt at a Ryker beard. This year hoping to have a foam Cylon costume ready but its my first one and going slowly(not happy with the way the paint is working either). May even do Tony Stark facial hair with arc reactor under a T shirt if I can get the cylon done.

    How unfortunate, Patrick Stewart cancelled his appearance at FanExpo this year...

    Really disappointed by the news

    He was supposed to be at the first Ottawa Comic Con, but cancelled that due to other movie requirements... Im slightly not surprised this time at Toronto...

    Yeah, I went to Ottawa for the convention and was also disappointed then.
    Fortunately, I had business to do in Ottawa so it wasn't a wasted trip...

    Fingers crossed that Stewart will actually make it in March.

    Still looking forward to FanExpo at the end of the month though...
    Can't wait to meet Sallah/Gimli and Doc Brown!

    Also had a great time. Had a deluxe pass but decided to avoid the Saturday crowds... Looks like the expo ran the same problem as it did several years ago :S

    Anyhow, got to meet John Rhys-Davies, Christopher Lloyd, Levar Burton and Chris Sarandon and they all were great!

    Wow, didn't realize that FanExpo was so popular here. Was there both Sat and Sun, managed to get autogrpahs from both the Boondock Saints brother, Amanda Tapping, Joe Flannigan, John Barrowman, and Alan Tudyk; was a great year! Was dressed as Han on Sat and in my SG-1 gear on Sun.

    Michel, Corey, good to see you guys here. Andrew, Ken, Neil & Mike, it was good to see you all again, even if it was brief.

    RogueSolo, we're you working at the show. We met someone who picked us out as RPF members but I don't think I got a name.

    Enjoyed the show. Don't do the autograph thing normally so we didn't see many of the guests, but we spent a lot of time on the floor visiting with many of the vendors we've become friends with, and of course with our 501 brethren.

    I never used to then I realized that these people won't be around forever (particularly the ones I care to meet like Christopher Lloyd & John Rhys-Davies) so it's almost a "now or never" if I want to meet them. Even though the moments are brief I'm adding to the stories I can tell my grandkids "Ya I met Doc Brown & Boba Fett!"

    Talisen: Not working it, no. My buddy and I go every year to costume (501st and RL) and enjoy it. Like to stop and talk to David at UD, but he was at CVI instead.
