INTROCalled in at comic con last Saturday and want to say hi

Vagin Sillk-Maac (Gavin MacAskill)

Hi, I met a few members last Saturday at comic con and have an application in to register my jedi costume, hope to hear back soon.

My real name is Gavin MacAskill ,Vagin Sillk-Maac is an anagram of my name but I have noted a lot of Star Wars names have the double letters (Plo Koon, Asajj Ventress,Count Dooku,Saesee Tiin,Shaak Ti and the kicker Barriss Offee) so based the name around the double L and double A.

My Star Wars story is like a lot of yours I guess at least those of you around my age , I was born in 1973 and was only 4 when my uncle Bob took me to see Star Wars at the movies , he also took me to see Empire , my mum took me to see Jedi.
Like most people I remember very little from my childhood but those moments have stuck with me.
As a child I would save my pocket money for Star Wars toys and everyone knew what I wanted for Xmas and birthdays.
Now that I'm older not much has changed, I'm still saving my money for Star Wars "Toys" and everyone still knows what I want for Xmas and birthdays.

I'm happily married with 2 children and 4 grandchildren aged 6,4,3 and 2, all of them Star Wars fans, thanks to poppy, I can't wait to take them to see episode 7.

G'Day Gavin and welcome to TB. You'll find we have a more active forum here away from the main Rebel legion forums. http://tatooinebase.com.au/forum/

You're free to post here, it gets looked at on occasion, but the forum in the link gets more traffic. Wink

Good luck with your submission. Would love to see some pics. Wink

Welcome Vagin I was one of the Jedi who you met on the weekend, great to see you have made it along a submitted your costume Cool

The only delay in your approval may be that its election time and depending and there is usually a 2 week hold on approvals before the election but you may just miss that. And like you and many others I'm really keen to seen how Ep VII turns out.
