Hehe, yeah, could hardly keep my eyes open, let alone write :)

Kudos to the folks of Toys "R" Us, HASBRO, LEGO, Forum the Shopping Mall... for making the Midnight Launch possible :D

The 501st Legion, Jedi, and others who turned up in Star Wars garb... you really helped boost the Star Wars atmosphere :D

And of course, Kudos to all of you who turned up and made the event a success! :D
Yeah, thanks to Toysrus & Hasbro, there'll be photos of the event to come!

Also, great to have met up with some of the collectors, forgot to get your names, but it was a pleasure to meet up with you guys/gals ......

Hey, without 501st, the event would definitely turned out differently! Kudos to all 501st members and your relentless passion which makes each event so memorable!

For those who weren't there, Hasbro had a few of the mail-in Captain Rex and the Celebration Japan R2-D2 exclusives to give eaway, and our very own Darth Vader, Boba Fett, Biker Scout and Stormie to draw the lucky winners!

It was through a lucky draw system.......i had no luck, bleah. :evil:

Btw, it was great meeting the StarwarsSG members and the 501st troopers. Fatimah too......

Not forgetting my long lost buddy, Leonard!!! I had posed with some of the troopers.....lol not forgetting getting some stuff for some of them as their armor prevented them from being nimble enough to get through the crowd of buyers!!!

I can still imagine him "skipping-running" to the front and jumping on the stage.

LOL! Some people got all the luck, always winning Lucky Draw..... :shock:

Anyhow, it had been a GREAT night and nice meeting everyone. :wink: And of course, thank you too for behaving well last night; I had seen "worst" when I attended my first Hasbro Midnight Sale for AOTC (not much memory of the ROTS one but then again, maybe cause I didn't get anything that night as none interested me compared to this one).

Red_5, you were the one who helped me located the Hunny Bunny Yummy Yummy Snowy Padme right? :wink: THANK YOU! :D
