WONDERFEST '09

Just got back from Wonderfest '09! And what a blast it was!

As some of you may know, the theme this year was "ALIEN". This was the 20th anniversary of WF and the 30th anniversary of "ALIEN".

Ya just can't go wrong with that!

Got to meet my good friend Al (our own Hive Mod) while there.
Yo Al, glad to FINALLY meet ya dude!

I managed to pick up Narin's "BUG KILLER" and "ALIEN 4" kits from Nightmare Collectibles.

Look for my pic with Veronica Cartwright, who played Lambert in ALIEN.
I had read that she would be giving a talk, but sadly it didn't happen.

Tom Woodruff Jr. was there as well. And, as much as I don't like him in the Alien suits in the movies, he was VERY funny and approachable in person.

Also, look for Mark D.'s new HUGE Alien kit from Nightmare Collectibles. It's the huge one behind the 1:1 full Alien.
I'll be posting more info on this elswhere, including ordering info. Yep, that's right, it can be yours!
And let me tell ya, the price is amazing for a piece this size.

Look for pics of Mark's new WOLF PREDATOR kit. He had the display painted by Joe Dunaway and it looks killer!

Look for a sneek peek of Hollywood Collectibles Group's upcoming 1:1 ALIEN bust! LOVE IT AND IT WILL BE MINE!

Also, there are pics of PSI Kits new Predator vs. T-Rex kit (also painted by Joe D.)
This thing was just too damn cool.
This beauty was snatched up QUICK. So, if your interested, be sure and get in touch with Jerry at PSI Kits for ordering info.

Lot's of pics of the model contest and dealer tables as well.
A TON of killer pieces in the contest this year. I almost didn't have enough room on my camera for everything!

Check out all of my pics from the weekend.

Enjoy!

Thanks for the images, looks like there were a lot of really cool models on show! How was the attendance? I wonder whether the economy has affected the amount of people who went this year? Looks a little empty.

Actually, the place was PACKED!

I just make everyone move out of my way when I take pics.

Great seeing you there again this year Boony! Saw quite a few forum members there. Had a great time looking at all the cool kits there this year. Spent a TON of money (Mainly with Gabe and Jesse )

And, I took a WHOLE BUNCH of photos for you guys to enjoy!

Some of these pictures are fantastic, great looking kits. Shame I couldn't go, but once I get better at painting, I'll hopefully pick a few up these up from the creators!

A conclusion is simply the place where you got tired of thinking.
