Empire State Star Wars Collectors Club (January 27th, 2018)

I had the privilege of attending an Empire State Star Wars Collectors Club meet up with the Ontario Star Wars Collector's Alliance on Saturday and I'm going to share some photos here. I shot a lot of video as well but that's going to take some time. There are some new people out there in New York who know about TantiveXI and I'm confident you'll meet some of them here soon.

Among several highlights, met Brian Stillman (Director of Plastic Galaxy) and got to talk cameras with him, I also met Skye Paine from the 'Chive Cast, and documented his first (and probably last) submission to a grading service.

The most insane collection of Fett mocs you may ever see.

I also had the pleasure of taking the group shot for the ESSWCC:

One of a handful of pickups for me, a un-sonic welded Walrusman which I purchased from Brian Stillman.

I had a great time, and there are so many more interesting things that come up in the video (which I'll start cutting this week), but if you've got any questions about these just let me know.

UPDATE



There were a few sound issues here, if you find that you’re too annoyed by the sweet licenced music, the mute button is one click away.

I've uploaded these videos "Unlisted" so they are not visible publicly on YouTube, you need to have a link to see them.

Interesting, I didn’t realize that you had a Harbert moc collection.

Looks like it was a good time.  Where in NY state was it?

Edit - I recognize Tomas Q. & Ross B. from C8.

Really looking forward to the video

Thanks guys, it was at one of the ESSWCC member’s home Syracuse.

Cool pics Chris, they certainly whet the appetite for the video.

Great pics, looks like a lot of fun was had, some lovely stuff on show, all those fetts! thanks for sharing

Videos.

Well done. The vids were fantastic.

Excellent work with the vids Chirs. There were a lot of fantastic items there. I also found the CAS presentation very interesting.

Great video's Chris I enjoyed watching mate

They’re alright. Could have been better but I really wanted to prioritize enjoying the event and not imposing with too much camera gear.

Glad you guys like them, that shuttle in the cas presentation is insane lol
