    I can see that impression from a distance and the studios DO pump all sorts of promotion into the con (which made for a very different feel last year during the strikes!). But it's also what you make of it. There really is a huge comics, gaming, anime, cosplay...well, you name it aspect. It...

    Every con is different. You mentioned SDCC - a not-for-profit con - but there's little in the way of paid autograph signings and the professional photo ops simply don't happen here (yes, I'm at SDCC right now). Signings are usually studio-arranged here and there's no charge (but many hoops to...

    FWIW, I've never seen or heard of a celeb taking offense at fans stopping by and letting them know one appreciated their work. That only costs admission and standing in line as needed. For me, the question is always-would I regret NOT having done something. Money makes lousy memories.

    Tip I learned from an artist re: framing unusual sizes: Buy a standard size frame and get a mat cut to fit. The right mat can really enhance a piece, too.

    B5 Animated Movie

    Which reminds me of seeing it at SDCC (twice) in huge rooms with many people. It was the first time I'd ever gotten to see anything B5 with more than one person and it was a lot of fun!!

    B5 Reboot?? Is it true??!!?!

    FWIW, your Intrepid Reporter will be at SDCC and will spread any news as soon as she gets back to the hotel! But you knew that... :giggle: :giggle:

    Tiny head. Definitely doesn't fit the bust except as a topknot!

    I'm pretty sure I've posted the large Londo/Peter bust before but now, in proper Cartagia fashion, I've added to my collection!

    Commentary Repository?

    I don't think JMS did any Patreon commentaries for the ones he'd previously done for the DVDs. And sadly, he seems to have stopped doing more.

    I asked. It's the only one that was included in that box and, as the description says, may have been the prop one and not a costume element. So there may be many others in a box that Wookie hasn't got but...will it be found? That's the question.

    Alternative Universe

    Well...no, to all of it. In the outline JMS published in the script books, there was no mention of Valen. Nor of Shadows. And the outline covered two five-year series (not in great detail, mind) and B4 actually went into the *future* after B5 was destroyed in a rekindled Earth/Minbari war...

    If it were me, I'd use the black velvet and maybe find a lucite box cover for it. OR - if you check out a craft store, you might find a 'shadow box' (if you'll forgive the term) that would work as a nice display. Depends on whether you've got more flat space or wall space available. Shadow...

    Darn. Can't edit the above. This doesn't offer any protection but I think it might be better than the mirrored one: Black velvet necklace display

    Now, Looney! Would I do that?? I'm quite sure I don't have to tempt you. Any more than I need help being very tempted! :p:D:p I'm not sure that's the same site where I got my white model cases but it's pretty similar. And for a necklace, it seemed like there should be something ready-made...

    I lucked out with the displays for my white models and my sister gifted them to me. Got any fairly flush relatives that Like You A Lot? Maybe something like this could work? https://www.shoppopdisplays.com/P_Box-MI/acrylic-angled-mirror-riser-box.html?list=Category%20Listing

    Maybe you could fashion something by bending a wire coat hanger creatively? I have faith in you! 🛠️ Have any of us offered to buy you ANY Wookie stuff at all?!? :p

    question about an episode

    I just did a scan on all of the scripts and I'm afraid that while the word 'optimist' is used a few times, none are said by Ivanova. In fact, Garibaldi is the one who calls himself an optimist most.

    Again, as stated, it depends on your point of view. Frankly, I don't care what 'real' collectors might or might not do.

    Ah, you got it! Okay, next time I see you I want to see you in a funny hat and the necklace and a 'brain' under the hat (with obligatory data crystal port, of course!). Congratulations!
