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!

And I will be a guest at the con doing some FX Make-Up Demos and making a mold of John Billingsly's (Star Trek: Enterprise; True Blood) face!!

Oh, and I'll also be the drunk guy at the bar! And I may even bring some Marine swag down in case anyone needs anything.

Whatcha you got? I have a convention here in Dallas (SciFiExpo) the weekend right before Farpoint so I will be have a smaller variety of stuff, mostly BSG uniforms, patches, Walking Dead Sheriff shirts, badges, pins, hats for the most part. I'm sharing 3 tables with Stitch's Loft (he does Stargate Stuff) so I should have some space unless you want to put a Nostromo Space Suit on the table!

To bad, SciFiExpo has a pretty good line up of guest and a group of us (mostly TCF folks) are going to dinner on Saturday night.

I know. But spending the weekend at a con I'm not a guest at gets expensive!

Sci Fi Expo is not an expensive convention: General admission is good either Saturday or Sunday. GA has access to the autograph room after VIP and Priority and access to the Q&A room after VIP. Saturday $25.00, Sunday $20.00. Kids ages 5-12 are only $5.00. Ages 4 and under are admitted free.

Several AL folks are going so I think you could find a place to crash, I live about an hour away so I will be driving in each day, and I could put you up for couple of nights if needed (of couse you will get woken up at 6:30 am by my 4.5 year old son!)

Well, not that anyone's weekend was going to be made or broken by my involvement, but unless the "sweep" was going to happen between exactly 9am and noon Saturday, then its unlikely I'm going to be able to participate after all. You guys will have to break the new guy and get your free beers at another event! Sorry guys, the fam decided on a schedule which doesnt involve me getting dressed up and drunk... :cry:

Sorry to hear you won't be able to make it to Farpoint, but we will drink a beer in your honor! Well we'll drink several beers and not remember what we toasted because of the hang over in the morning!

Farpoint is always great because of the fans who go there more then the guests that appear there! I had a great time and miss you guys already!
