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!

Just pulled out my armor and found the right shoulder cracked at the back two rivets....it wouldn't make it through the parade :(

JP-Weld epoxy on and adding another rivet to each shoulder on the outside to give it more strength!!!

Wifey and I are heading out tomorrow so let me say 'See you crazy cats in GGEEOORRGGIIIAAAA and have a safe trip.
Bring your A game...this is the 25th anniversary after all!!!

Seems this con comes up on me faster and faster every year! Please forgive me if I'm bouncing off the walls when I get there.

Packed up. Just gotta drop my 2 back seats into truck mode for my jeep and toss in the suit case, armor case and rifle case.

Man, thats a lotta case. :D

Anyone driving down the 81 to 85 corridor Thursday early morning keep an eye open and say hello if we've stopped to take a leak.

I got the feeling tomorrow will be an extremely slow day.

Case of beer?

I left the store with a gallon of the Captain. :twisted:

Beer comes tomorrow can't have it over heating from being in my jeep for 2 days straight.

Yea I'm not sure if beer actually can overheat, but better safe than sober.

My crates are loaded up into my car (with more spare room than I expected!) all I need to do is pack my regular clothes and get some things done around the house then I'll be off to Camp Slater where I will crash for the night. At Oh-dark-thirty in the morning we roll out.
