Dallas fanboys and fangirls rejoice, because this weekend you’re in for some of the most awesome awesomeness ever. Fan Days is coming to town for a three-day extravaganza, bringing us the best in actors, artists, toys and more. We’re sure that you’re excited to check out the wares available at the more than 300 vendor booths, but we know that you’re really going for the autographs and photo ops, because the list of guests this year is pretty impressive. Fan faves Bruce Campbell, Stan Lee, Dave Prowse, Robert Englund, Felicia Day, Sean Astin and Alan Tudyk will all make appearances, so plan your dance card accordingly (don’t mind us, we’ll be hanging around the reunion of Starship Troopers stars Dina Meyer and Casper Van Dien). A three-day pass for Fan Days is $60 and single-day passes are $20 to $30. Call 972-661-2764 or visit fandays.com to get the full schedule of events.
