Today we have update #38 of the Star Wars Fan Days III 40 Story Countdown. And what a doozy it is!
Star Wars Fan Breakfast with The Clone Wars' James Arnold Taylor and Dave Filoni!
Star Wars fans attending Dallas Fan Days III are invited to attend a very special breakfast on Saturday, October 24, 2009, from 8 am to 10 am, at Plano Centre. The Fan Breakfasts have been a favorite event for years and have offered rare opportunities to meet the stars of Star Wars, mingle with fellow fans, talk with representatives of Lucasfilm, and take away lots of goodies. The Fan Days III breakfast offers that and more!
Fans who attend will meet and get an autograph from the very talented voice actor James Arnold Taylor (the voice of Obi-Wan Kenobi in Star Wars: The Clone Wars) in a casual setting. James was a huge hit at this year's Star Wars Weekends at Disney World, and is the master of hundreds of well-known voices. The breakfast will include remarks and Q&A with Clone Wars Supervising Director Dave Filoni, LFL head of fan relations Steve Sansweet, and possibly other surprise guests as well.
Each attendee will receive a hot-plate breakfast; a mega-cool exclusive T-shirt; a souvenir ticket; and a breakfast exclusive OfficialPix trading card of James ready for his signature. Further, throughout the event lucky fans will win some truly amazing Star Wars raffle prizes. In addition, attendees will receive priority entrance to the convention center at 10am.
The breakfasts are produced for Star Wars Fans by C2 Ventures Inc. Admission is $49.99 per person because of generous donations by sponsors Comic Images, DK Books, Mimoco, and Uncle Milton Industries.
Tickets go on sale Monday, September 14th at 6 pm Central time HERE. NOTE: Tickets only available until Thursday, October 8th!
