The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

I thought if there were pinups they had to be at the end. Not the sides but the rear.

Thanks!

Greg

Nothing wrong with being in the rear. That's where I'll be. ;)

If there are pinups, they go behind the Marines. I'm no longer doing pinup for the parade due to lack of interest in that group. I will be in my dropship pilot costume carrying the banner.

My wife just asked a question about the parade and wasn't sure how to respond. She was wondering about being a "hippy protestor" in the rear with the xenos with a sign saying something like "love Aliens hate war.".. Or something like that.

Thanks, I appreciate that considering the circumstances of last year. Now I need someone in marine gear to hold the other side of the banner so we can stick to this decision.

Well looks like my in laws are going to be in the crowd watching the parade. So my wife is out. She wants to be with them. I was going to drop my smart gun and wear the light marine gear (muliti cam pants, flak vest, pistol and boonie hat) with medic bag and help as a handler for the xenos. Am I more needed in the front and hold the banner? I can still carry instant cold packs and carry some extra water in the bags.

Do any of us signed up for the parade have any underlying medical conditions that will make this one mile walk difficult enough to necessitate bringing so much water with us? I recommend a sober (or at least a temperate) Friday night, a good breakfast (we have a potluck breakfast at 07:00), and hydrate before the parade. Waiting for you at the end of the parade is a bottle of water. Being at the front, we have the shortest amount of time in the parade. I don't want to sound insensitive, but let's not worry too much on this point... we'll all do fine.

Fair enough. I was just remembering 2 years ago, a many of us were looking pretty rough after the parade. I can ditch the smart gun still and help girlspectre carry the banner for the parade.

OK a decision has been reached. No pinups to carry the banners. Pinups (if any) go behind our troop as support.
One of our dragoncon roommates is trying to get an android costume together. If he can't, he will be on the sidelines taking pictures.

What is he looking for Android costume wise? I have Bishop's flight suit that I have not cut in half yet. Since my Bishop is not coming this year I lend it to them for the parade. Not certain on the size but can check when I get home. It is not exact but blue. I also have a similar light. Not exact but similar.

Thanks!

Greg

He's about a medium. I'll see if he's interested in borrowing it
