May 2005: Charter Member Party to celebrate the first Anniversary of Seattle's Science Fiction Museum and hall of Fame.
June 02' Prop Party at my house. A bunch of us in the local area get together regularly and view each others work and acquisitions. Peter Diamond at Celebration II
Peter Diamond was the Stunt Coordinator and played many characters in the Trilogy where a stunt man
was needed including the Tusken Raider who attacks Luke. It was great meeting him at Star Wars Celebration II. The first thing he wanted to do was try on my mask! For more information about him or his interesting career see my links page.
Sadly Peter passed away in March of 2004 after a career of over 50 years.
Here are some pictures of my adventures in the costumes: Chatting with Anthony Daniels (C3-PO) at the Celebration Costume Contest. He truly is fluent in 3 million forms of communication he could recite my unitelligable Tusken name back to me that I made up on the spot!
