Hi Brian,
I'll be there. I thought I'd mention here the same idea I proposed on ArmoramA.
How about organizing a photo shoot for planetFigure members in attendance. maybe have a sign at the registration desk asking pF members to gather there at a certain time on Saturday for a group picture. I'd be happy to take the picture and post it here. Anyone think this is a good idea?

Craig - I'll be there, as will about 5 other of my friends who inhabit this site. I'm sure many more will show.

Let's see if we can get the pF group together for a picture following the awards ceremony. We can just ask everyone to stay behind for 10 minutes after the awards. Will that work? I can make a sign; you can get the snap. Does this sound like a plan??

 

[PJ Deluhery]

One more thing - we all should wear a pF nametag. Use the nametag generator on this site so we can recognize each other.

If you forgot where it is, as I did, just search this site for "nametag".

Again, kudos to our loyal and industrious staff for making this and all else possible.

Hi Pat,
I'd be more than willing to wait around but I'll be driving with two others friends. And since we're a four hour drive away in Pittsburgh we tend to leave as soon as possible. I can probably talk then into waiting around for a little bit though no promises :lol: .
If you'd like to make a sign, please do. With Brian at the front desk I'd hope we wouldn't have any problems placing it there. I'm trying to do the same thing for ArmoramA members attending the show. I'' probably make a sign for it that does the same thing unless... Can ask you to add ArmoramA to the pF sign?
I've already got my name tag printed out and ready to go .
Looking forward to meeting you and all the other planeteers.

Sounds great Pat and Craig! I'll be on the lookout.

Craig - what about another time? I figured most Figureteers would be attending the awards ceremony ( to pick up their huge cashe of awards!! ;-) )

What about 2PM on Saturday? Registrations close at noon, so it can't be much earlier than that.

Anyone else have an idea as to time?? Let's throw out some ideas so we can get max turnout. I'd love to see a huge group picture ... and to meet you guys!

Thanks to Guy for posting the link to the infamous nametag generator!!

Craig,
I will put the sign at the front table. I will be there most of the time on Friday and Saturday.

Hey,
Good to se this coming alive.
Pat, 2:00 Saturday sounds like a good time to me. Judging is still going on and the vendors have been picked clean by then .
Brian, thanks for agreeing to place the sign. If we make up a couple of the, maybe we can put one on the flyer table as well.
I always look forward to meeting other folks I've only talked with here.
Craig

Bah I wanna go!


Have a great time guys!

 

[PJ Deluhery]

Sounds like a plan. 2pm on Saturday. Let's meet behind the registration table (where the awards are held).

Planeteers reading this please take note. Let's see if we can get an announcement about 1:45pm over the P.A.

Thanks for doing the sign, Brian. See you there. Anders - join us please! It's worth the drive.

With MFCA being my former home show, it has always been worth the drive to see the exhibitions and all of the vendors who gather at MFCA with the newest releases. I would reccomend this show to all who are involved in figures whether it be painting or sculpting. I plan to attend future shows from here in Oklahoma as I really miss the size show that the MFCA members put forth.

Hi Guys

Planet member group photos at shows - now there's a good idea. Maybe we can get something arranged for our "big one" - Euro Militaire, as there should be a whole busload of planeteers there, both UK modellers and many of our overseas friends. Anyone out there up for this?

Great idea! I like the 1400 picture time better than afterwards. My girlfriend is a saint, but I don't know if she would hang around that long!!! Anyway, we do want to hit Valley Forge that day, too!!

And she'll probably talk me into IKEA, too!

See everyone there!!
