Day: September 22, 2001

From Sean VDM

Hi, I just wanted to let you know I just came from The Dutch Comic book Convention “De Stripdagen” in Den Bosch, The Netherlands. The big news is that one of the stands was selling the Sideshow/Weta busts, Statues and Helmets (all of Wave I). They weren’t in finished pacakaging yet, but in plain white boxes (the packaging material did have a “Sideshow-Weta Collectibles logo on it though). I bought the Gandalf bust, didn’t have any more money or I would have bought the statue 🙁 .The convention is on today (till 1700) and tomorrow from 1000 till 1700, I think.
The guy running the stand (it was a company called PMB Express, who said they are the official Dutch distributors of the Weta Sideshow merchandise) also told me that they are going to see the 30 minute preview somewhere in The Netherlands tomorrow! they’ve been told not to bring any mobile phones, camera’s or other electronics, but I wish I knew where it was!

Today, September 22nd is the birthday of Bilbo and Frodo Baggins! Though the Shire Calendar is different to our own, today is undoubtedly an occasion for some of Gandalf’s fireworks and a mighty fine marquee! Might we see some special suprises from New Line today?

Before we start to move on with our everyday lives after the events of Sept 11th, lets not forget that there are a lot of people that will need help and support. Many of us have been touched in some way by this tragedy. Imagine if you were directly affected. Please help in anyway you can. No contribution is too small. [Tribute to Heroes]
