My droid was joined by droids and droid parts supplied by Gene Arena, David Annetta, Tom Piedmont, John Boisvert and Roy Powers. We arrived between 5:00pm and 5:30pm, and started setting up.


The members-only event started at 6:00pm, when were joined by the 501st and Rebel Legion, as the guests made their way in.



At 7:00pm I gave a presentation in the theater about the R2 Builders Club, and also how I built my droid. Before the audience came in, we gave it a quick test. That screen was really nice.




Afterward, we came back out for more fan interaction.

This guy was all smiles after I let him play one of R2's sounds.

After:

The Tuskens must have some sort of adoption program.

The event wrapped up around 8:00pm. It was a very successful evening, we're scheduled to be back on Sunday, February 19, 2012.

Thanks Edward! The best part of that backdrop is the real ILM X-wing peeking at us through the window to the main Star Wars exhibit.
It was a nice time, I look forward to February's visit.
