As part of Lucasfilm/Disney's continuing partnership with it's licensing partners, I was honored to be a part of their promotional event with VANS stores and their new line of Dark Side apparel. VANS had a professional photographer there taking pictures for free and printing them on the spot for people who stood in line to see us. We had a great turnout at the store (there was a velvet-roped line out the door in the mall waiting to come in to take pictures with us), and as usual, we cold not help but have a great time working with the staff and guests to make this another great event for the Carolina Garrison and the 501st. (And apparently, they moved some MAJOR merchandise that day as well, thanks to this promotion!)

My thanks to the folks who help us "work" that day:
Troopers:
Jerry Sienkiewicz - Vader
Andrew Rochelle - Stormtrooper
Edward Reed - R2-D2 (from the R2 Builders Group)

And a special thanks to a Merc & some good friends who came out to help us as well:
Wranglers/photographers:
Julia Lucas
Kat Marchant
Kolin English

Here are a few pics from the event. You can find ALL of them on my FB page at: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set ... 444&type=3
