Dallas Fan Expo 2017 Anyone else going? Mark Hamill.....

Hey, it was announced that Mark will be making a rare appearance at Fan Expo Dallas from March 31- April 2... I'm going to continue my mission to get photo ops and autographs from the original cast... I know Mark will be expensive, but you can't put a price on a memory.... Photo ops don't go on sale for about a month.. I will post here once i have purchased one.. Is anyone else planning on attending?

Hopefully you will be able to get his autograph, Matt.

I would imagine that Mark will be heading to Orlando right after that, for C8.

Mate I definitely would be going if I was close by!

Matt are you coming to Celebration Orlando?

No..This is my mini vacation...Maybe next year..Have fun in Orlando

Good luck on getting Mark's autograph Matt

yes I heard that's a hard auto to get .. good luck

I got him to sign a reprint ESB poster last year, $195 CAD at FanExpo in Toronto. Not cheap but I'm pretty happy with it though. The annoying thing is that I had to put my brother in line for me cuz I was shooting at the event lol he got to meet Mark on my dime.

Still worth it for the poster IMO, got Billy D. on there too.

Photo op would be pretty good too, it may be expensive but its a pretty short list of people who (I assume) you'd pay that much for a photo with.

Wow Chris I can't believe how much he's charging these days! Still I guess his sig is pretty special.

I paid 30 euros for Julian Glover's sig (General Veers) last weekend in Brussels. Really nice guy.

195 wow !!!!

congrats though

any pictures??

Lol I see you've already found it.

I bit the bullet yesterday morning and bought the Gold Jedi package for Mark.. It was $$$$$$$$$$$$$, but I get to a photo op and Friday night at a special limited event... I also get first seating to his Star Wars panel on Friday night...I know it was very expensive, but it will prob be be my only shot at meeting him...I been telling everyone that I'm going to take my lightsaber hilt and reinact the final scene of The Force awakens... I felt like a kid again after I purchased the package yesterday..... You can't put a price on a memory.....

Matt that is bloody awesome! Make sure you share your photos with us!

That's fantastic. Like Christian said, make sure you share your pictures with us.

Hey guys, it took me 30 + years, but I finally got to meet Mark Hamill last Friday... I got an awesome photo op, autograph, and got a front row seat to his panel....He was beyond nice....It was pretty quick, but I managed to talk to him for a couple of minutes, and snuck my lightsaber hilt to the phto op...Very few things will make you feel like a 5yr old again, but meeting luke Skywalker will do the trick...I was fine when I met him, but caught myself telling the volunteer and photographer " that's Luke Skywalker" right when i entered the room....I also met Alan Tudyk and got his K-2SO pic signed.....We got to talk for a good 4 minutes before they had to move on....Here are the pics of my photo op, autographs, and a few panel pics....

Matthew, that's awesome. I also just heard that he's going to be in Orlando as well.

Nice. Making me more annoyed that I had to send someone to get my autograph for me lol

That is super cool Matt

You've just about met all the main cast members now

Nice work Matt! Love the photo!

Totally agree, when I met Mark Hamill I almost pissed myself I was so excited. And I generally am not too bothered when I see celebrities...
