They have the 2011 schedule beta posted. Panel wise... Odds are there will be a cancellation or two... always is... You can feel free to use the following means: (not sure if they check the panel submission form as often, but if you use the form and send them an email saying your from the...

Hello, I could of sworn I had posted this before, but apparently I did NOT... Anime Nebraskon - November 4-6 Omaha, Nebraska http://www.animenebraskon.com The 405th is officially invited to Anime Nebraskon, usually they ask us to run a few panels but the panels are mostly full this...

Its only fair as the 501st has all sorts of vehicles! We need some of our own! I wouldn't mind making a life sized Ghost, it could be cool to drive around... even if it was powered by 2 battery operated scooters... lol

If you are finishing final touches on fitting for your armor, make CERTAIN you bring a roll of Industrial Velcro with you. Honestly a lot of my armor is attached using Industrial Velcro. ALL of my armor padding is Industrial Velcro. It holds VERY securly and is easily adjustable. I just got a...

I talked to registration and you can just pick them up at registration. I was hoping to have a list of 405th forum names to give them as well just incase a bunch of people claim to be with the 405th wanting a free badge. If you want me to add your real name to that list just message me. Not...

Yes, the fiberglassing panel is set to be Friday @6pm in Palace B We sold out the convention center hotel... its a very large hotel and its sold out ^_^ They have an overflow hotel setup across the street, comfort inn - 1-877-567-7007 group name: Anime NebrasKon I'm glad that the panel...

Don't be afraid to use very comfortable shoes... if your shoes aren't comfortable to walk around in don't expect to use them with your armor and expect them to perform better. I would suggest getting gel insoles to help some. I used a bit of velcro under my boot caps so I could easily use...

What I usually do, carry around my Mark VI helmet with me off and on during the convention, a number of people usually approach me about it... I wear my armor for a while... until I get sick and tired of people taking my picture... Then I play the statue game... Stand still, people will...

CONVENTION UPDATE: not a double post ^_^ Suite rooms are - SOLD OUT Regular rooms - a handfull remaining panel slots: a few openings left: Friday 3pm right before opening ceremonies, late friday night and during cosplay... For those who submitted panel requests, they are in the process of...

I'll be getting there Thursday evening guessing around 7pm or so. It will probably be easy to find me as I will likely be in the main Palace rooms (Palace F in particular - the room with the HUGE stage) setting up my main PA system and light show. 9500 watt sound system and 11,000 watt light...

There was an exception to the gun rule given to the 405th and the 501st as long as they were in costume. I know I mentioned this to people last year, it should be the same way this year. Even if the general convention attendees are not allowed realistic looking guns, the 405th and the 501st...

The gun rule should be the same as last year and I just figured the changing room would work out the same as last year as the 501st will be there again this year. I'll have to check into that. There's a chance the gun rule will be a little more laxed this year as the hotel knows what's going...

I would suggest to figure in for the cost of the master die that everyone interested in a coin pitches in like 5 or 10$ plus the price of the coins they want and when the costs are met the surplus goes towards the website upkeep or overflows into another 405th wide venture I would definately...

The more the merrier ^_^ I'm sure there will be a few spare badges as only 1 badge last year was used out of the 10... Sounds so far like Loess should get his badge comped will have to check about Annie I just got an email saying that if you didn't reserve your hotel room by now, they were...

I would be very interested in this. Just wanted to say something, the guy had the math wrong when calculating paypal's cut Its all just a matter of algebra... (they charge 2.9% on the full ammount you give them, he forgot to account for that) x= what you give paypal y=paypal's cut y + 20 = x...
