Re: So Cal Prop Party!! SET FOR MARCH 6th 2011 **SEE 1st POST**

well, maybe we should make a few extra badges just incase some of us forget (i forgot mine last year :()

I doubt it will be a problem this year because like Matty said the first room had a lot of traffic...plus, our doors were wide open...our displays does give off a swapmeet kind feeling to it haha


I agree Michael - I think the positioning of the doors (right next to the main restaurant entry) lead more to strays.

We could just station micdavis at the door - he can scare off anybody!

Anyone have a spare ED-209 lying around? Or maybe WETA can lend us some sentry guns for the night :)

Though those would probably increase the curiosity and walk-ins.

As for ProtoKev, I would like to suggest that we put together a TOTALLY informal get together the night before, maybe just get together for a drink or two. It would be a great chance to do a little pre-partying, and would also allow us to include a few more folks whose schedules might not line up.

I would be up for that. Kevin's a big Who fan, so I've got to meet him.

Indeed, We do have a dinner/ball on Sat for the outgoing ASDA President, but those dont usually run too late because they are at a hotel...

...but I talked with the person organizing our schools delegations travel plans and i should be able to get a later flight on Sun, its just a matter of figuring out midterms...but im pretty good with that

Sounds good, PK. Either way, keep us posted. We could always do a saturday lunch, whatever. Just want to make sure you get your fix :)

How about a Pay At The Door fee for those that try to sneak in or if the don't have a RPF badge? We could add the funds to the RPF Beer Petty Cash!
 
Re: So Cal Prop Party!! SET FOR MARCH 6th 2011 **SEE 1st POST**

I just realized that there may be a way to get to Cali without having to pay out of pocket. I'll investigate further. If it works out, I'll totally see you all there! If not, I'll just have to save up. I'm crossing my fingers!

I had suggested that early on in this thread. You simply call it a "donation" of, say, 1 dollar. I wasn't a member last year but I went by and poked my head in. I would have gladly shelled out one measly buck to see all the cool props and with R2D2 cruising around, you guys got a lot of attention.

"I have had a clasp snapped off a compass once... No big deal."

Yes, that was me. And a blood vessel burst in my brain the instant the thing came apart in my hands...

In case anyone needs a hand with logistics I live less than 5 minutes from Dave + Busters. I should have some interesting bits to bring and/or give away to pay forward the huge lightsaber gift I was given for my cousin last year.

It seems like there will be a few Who people in attendance so I'll see if I can dig up some of my 15 year old high school projects including a scarf and the McCoy question mark vest, the ultimate in bad taste.

I'll probably end up bringing some of my BSG stuff. I've got most of the items Kevinericon produced, as well as a set of jheilman's paper cubits that I'll bring. Nothing exciting or built, but maybe someone who's got another prop or two from the show could bring it?

Also, BUMP.

Wow, I need to check in more often, I totally missed this thread and now I'm so happy I found it! Count me in! I'll bring my War Machine costume and my D9 arc generator (the one I made, not the weta bought one) I'm so Jazzed! I missed the last one and now I get to see all the faces behind the avatars! And I can actually talk to Art for more then 20 seconds this time. I just have to make some more props and stuff to bring, maybe I can get my Tron disks lighted finally! Oh I can't wait! (jumping up and down while typing, I know what a feat!)

I have been meaning to go to Vasquez Rocks (Cestus3), Bronson Caves (the Batcave Entrance), or Malibu Creek State Park (MASH & APE CITY) for a visit.

Haven't been in twenty years.

Maybe we do this on Saturday if enough are interested.

With the number of times I've driven between Long Beach and Lancaster, it's amazing that I've still never stopped at Vasquez Rocks. I'd like to go for sure.
 
Re: So Cal Prop Party!! SET FOR MARCH 6th 2011 **SEE 1st POST**

Well this is all of a 15 min. drive for me, and I'm interested in going.

I'm a relatively recent member however, so this would be my first prop party - and to tell you the truth, I'm not even fully sure what a prop party is! Do we just bring an armful of lightsabers and slap them down on the table and discuss them? Forgive my ignorance, I've never heard of this type of thing before (I went through the first 7 pages of the thread and still have basically no idea).

Lutso,

Just bring whatever you have you think others might find interesting or something you might like sharing. Or just bring yourself and meet other members. A "Prop Party" is just a get-together of people with like interests to meet others...to share their props, costumes or models or show others what they have. You might make a new friend too.
