    Default Maw event for Emmett Williams 5-7-2011 just under 4 years old

    this is the event i attended saturday for Emmett, he wished, as one of his wishes to meet Darth Vader, so being as i am in the 501st and my main costume is Vader i was NOT goin to let this sweet kid down. tulsa fanforce friends and fellow 501st member Zack , all pitched in money for a VADER Bear, and i made him a belt hanger lightsaber with some flashy leds on it i installed. the intial conversation i had with Emmett, my voice sounded just fine, and was perfect, but after that, i raised my voice because of the background noise and music goin on, just so i knew they could hear me ok, that caused my voice to sound a lil off, but at that point, it didnt matter to Emmett, here was his wish come true, meeting and interacting with Vader.

    At first i didnt know i was even his wish, till MAW was talkin on stage and i found out, so at that point, i knew i had to make this sweet lil kids moment one he'd remember forever.

    Video shot by a student for me, please excuse the coughing and sniffling, she had a cold, and is a lil shakey at times too, also sorry bout the cuts i thot i had them good, but noticed somehow after i got them on here that a few were out of sequence in a clip like it jumped one section to another and spliced it together, sorry for that, lol

    heres the still shots link too



    these 2 shots, a group shot of him and us and a single with him and me were taken, and i brought my printer and laptop along, printed off these two shots, and the group one we ALL signed it in character, and the single one on one shot i signed to emmett from Lord Vader





    hes holding the lightsaber i made for him and that smile, that smile, it says it all !!!

    also he was presented with a form that my friend printed off for admittance to the Sith training academy, with his name on it, and authorized by Me, VADER, signed off by the attending commander, ZACK, and trainer, my friend Lord Waya Nightwolf.

    enjoy the video, specially the one on one duel i had with him

    Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power.

    What a great jobb you did with that little dude. This kind of stuff is what makes saber building Legit IMO. It shows, while we care about our creations, we truly care more about the people involved with them.

    Good job man.

    Make-A-Wish is a great cause. A favorite Charity of the Rebel Legion, too.


    You really made that kid's day, Lan. Kudos to you.

    I sent a link to this thread around at work.

    This is so heartwarming, I'm exceptionally glad to be part of a community like this, who go out of their way to make things like this possible

    your blaster packs run dry of charge,
    your words of power dry up in your throat and I am still standing,
    what will you do then?
