KennythePirate - every weekend

KennythePirate - every weekend

Thanks, Kenny. You've been added to POST #15 here and POST #49 on SWW 2014 Roll Call

 

[Ferrentinos]

Thanks for the new thread! So helpful! Looking forward our arrival at WDW in 5 days!!!!

I wouldn't really call Jawas "bad guys"

I think they were even dancing with the "good guys" at the Hoopla last year.

 

[bastos]

If Kenny really is there every weekend, he might be my new number one priority on character location!

 

[Ninja Mom]

So when we know more about who is marching on the weekends we attend SWW, is it appreciated or distracting to holler at those members: "Hey, name here, thanks for marching!" ...or something?

I was at at SWW a couple of years ago at a spot where many friends and family members of the marchers were congregated and we were doing just that! So yes... it was appreciated and a lot of fun!!

Here's the Dark Side all together:

That is just awesome! You know those Jawas would trade sides as well as anything else in a heart beat!

I hope he wears a Star Wars themed "Character Locator" shirt!

Can someone explain everything Darth Mall to me? What goes on inside the mysterious tent(besides parting money from my wallet)? any advice about lines?

Darth Mall is not in a tent this year. It is near TSMM in one of the buildings.See Kenny's map:

Character meet and greets take place there and there are also vendors selling SW merchandise.

 

[DisneyFamily123]

Obi Wan and Beyond 1 hour before
Stars of the Saga at least 1 hour before
Behind the force 45 minutes before

Guess I better keep those FP+s! Thanks!

 

[loudisneyfan]

If I have my 3 FP+s booked for first thing in the morning (8-9, 9-10, 10-11) do you think I have a chance at getting my 4th FP+ for the Obi Wan show at 7 on May 16th or should I just bite the bullet and give up my Rockin' Rollarcoaster FP+?

Just thought I'd share the iron on transfer design that my daughter and I just finished this afternoon. Our family of 5 will be wearing matching tshirts on one of our SWW days. What do you think? My dd14 did most of the design work- she is really creative. Can't wait to get these tshirts made and ready for our trip! Do any of you also so tshirts for your families? Would love to see some other designs!!


P.S. sorry this ended up so big! This is the first photo I've posted! not sure how to resize!

We have up out TSM fp for a show, we bit the bullet!

If rock n roller coaster is important to you keep it and try and get the 4th fp for the show, in any case, if you don't get it you could just make the standby line

This is a picture from last Halloween. We surprised our daughter by dressing up and going with her. You should have seen her face when I sneaked out the back got dressed and rang the front doorbell. Then my wife came out dressed in the hallway.

Yes there must be a Dunkin Donuts on the Death Star.

I'm working on a custom Ahsoka costume to keep my young one cooler.

They will not be able to acknowledge your cheers, they are required to walk looking straight ahead But I know Ash heard us cheer for him last year and told us about it later

I have been waiting for over a year to talk about this! And now they have posted a list of merch at Darth's Mall: https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/shops/hollywood-studios/star-wars-weekend-merchandise/

We are the makers of FanWraps vehicle decals and are very excited that they will be showcased throughout the park and available for purchase at the Mall!!!
This is very surreal.
