April 19th and 20th there will be a Toy Show in Greensboro and there will be a whole bunch of Star Wars celebrities coming to do autographs including Chewbacca, Boba Fett, Admiral Ozzel, Aayla Secura, Admiral Ackbar, Aurra Sing, Mara Jade, Plo Koon, Mike Quinn (who was a puppeteer of many of the characters including Yoda) and more!
Tickets and other information is available at http://www.imperialquartermaster.com/.
Just thought I would pass this on to any other Star Wars fans that might be in this area. StormFront and I are planning on going for the weekend, there are many events planned through the day including panel discussions with the celebrities and auctions and lots of fun stuff. I've met Peter Mayhew (Chewbacca) and he has a lot of interesting things to say about his experiences doing Star Wars (and yes he is very very tall!).

Mara Jade? I thought she was just a book character; she wasn't in any of the movies that I know of.

Shannon Baksa is a model Decipher got to play Mara Jade for some of the expanded universe CCG cards. She is also what they now use to base her pictures on for cover art and she possibly appeared in Jabbas Palace undercover (http://www.starwars.com/databank/character/marajadeskywalker/index_eu.html) but it was never found officially in the movies. They also had other people pose for Corran Horn (Mike Stackpole) and Talon Karrde (Timothy Zahn) kind of appropriate to get the character creators to play their star characters.
