(SAN DIEGO, CA July 24, 2004)The Star Wars Fan Club hosted their second San Diego Comic-Con breakfast at the Marriott Hotel and Marina. Mary Franklin of Lucasfilm played host and emcee to the event, and guests include Lucasfilm's licensing head honcho Howard Roffman and Fan Relations' Steve Sansweet, Lucas Online's Paul Ens, , Fan Club president Lisa Stevens, and Hasbro's Jeff Popper. Also making a surprise appearance was Daniel Logan (AOTC's young Boba Fett).


 

After a brief introduction by Mary, the fan club members enjoyed a traditional breakfast of eggs, sausage, pastries, and fruit. This was followed by a raffle of Star Wars gifts to lucky fans, then a Q&A with the V.I.P.'s. Fans asked questions ranging from Star Wars Weekends in Disney California ("working on it") to the official title of Episode III ("go to today's presentation" says Sansweet).

 

Each guest received a FREE Hasbro Silver Sandtrooper and Star Wars goodie bag. The Indiana Jones shopping bag was filled with randomly selected items from the Lucasfilm Licensing archives. According to Mary, there were even a few items which date back to '77, so it was a nice bonus treat overall. Our particular goodie bag included:

Darth Vader belt
"The Story of Star Wars" vinyl recording
J'Quille action figure
A.H. Prismatic Hologram Keyring
2 RSO Star Wars 45 vinyl records "Battle in the Snow/Imperial March"
