You're right there, I might have to have another look, I had a picture of the foot prints in the concrete outside the theatre at some stage as well.Harvey Mushman wrote:That, right there, is STAR WARS!badges2nz wrote:Here was a random shot of the Grauman's Chinese Theatre with a patrol car in front.
I thought at the time a bit iconic of LA.

Re: Darth Vader News
Now that's great, there was a person dressed as yoda outside the theatre last time I visited.
They held out their arm to a young boy motioning him to come closer, I was sooo tempted to do my yoda impersonation to really get a look of astonishment from the boy, but I didn't

Hope you have a good time, I'll be back here due to funds being a bit stretched with the $$$ I've put into this costume.Harvey Mushman wrote:I'm heading back in December… to see a certain movie.

Re: Darth Vader News
I know the feeling…
It was a decade back, but I also made a display Vader, which I never finished (and sold to do some stuff).

Re: Darth Vader News
I'll be giving my costume its first run on Monday 19th at planet retro in Otaki for the morning from 10am to 12pm.
I'll try to get some photos up on site for this, the ad is on facebook and twitter for planet retro.
At least I have my fans working in the helmet, I just need a drink hole for a straw in the helmet mesh for refreshments through the morning.

Re: Darth Vader News
Hi everyone
Some good news. I follow Dave on Facebook and he made an announcement last week that the dementia claims are untrue. He said he was feeling better physically and hoped to be back on the convention circuit this year!
