DK Lego Star Wars book release - Woodfield Mall Report

Post by River »

on 10/10/09 the troopers of the MWG and RL (Nar Shadaa Base), descended upon the Lego Store of Woodfield Mall.

Our Mission:
To support the nationwide book launch of DK's newest visual dictionary Star Wars Legos!

As we all arrived we could feel the excitement in the air, there were some patrons but as we got closer to 'show time' the patronage tripled outside the door waiting for our grand entrance.

We started out with Jedi first, then Rex, TK and finally, everyone's favorite, Darth Vader. Many "Oooh's, AAaah's", "That's Anakin", "That's REX!", and "DARTH VADER" came out of the mouths of children and adults alike.

Needless to say we all were having so much fun at this event, so many people in the mall would see us at the corner of their eye and want to walk in to get their picture taken. At one point, Darth Vader (Jason Patterson) Found a nice display area that looked out to the mall. MANY passerbys had to stop and take notice or just simply run in dying for the fact to take their picture with the Dark Lord himself.

THis was indeed an incredibly fun troop and all troopers who atteneded were just awesome! I can't thank them enough for making this an amazing and fun event! oh, and yes, we didn't leave without purchasing a couple of things for ourselves.

Those in Attendance:
SL-1719 (Jason Patterson) Darth Vader
TK-3446 (Neil Auer) Stormtrooper
CC-3166 (Joe 'River' Rivera) Captain Rex
SL-9442 (Chris Schwarz) Anakin Skywalker
