As part of the Great Allentown Comic Con Mega Show 2011's Epilepsy Awareness Project Fundraiser, we are auctioning off 3 Fan Dinners with some of the biggest name in Science Fiction!

Now's your chance to win a once-in-a-lifetime dinner with:

Image Peter Mayhew (Star Wars' Chewbacca),

Image Robert Picardo (Star Trek: Voyager's The Doctor) or

Image Tom Kane (Star Wars: The Clone Wars' Yoda, Powerpuff Girls Professor Utonium, Him)

The Auction Ends Thursday November 17th at 6:10 PM, and the dinners will take place Saturday, November 19th following the first night of the show.

100% percent of the Hammer Price goes directly to Toteman's Epilepsy Awareness Project.

You can learn more about this Benefit event and the Toteman Epilepsy awareness project through our website, or by clicking on the links above. There, you can also preview the catalog for our Benefit Art Auction, Leave absentee Bids, or register to bid LIVE via our streaming auction webcast.

This is a unique shot at some One-on-One time with your favorite stars, while raising money for a great cause. We look forward to seeing you there!

The press here has been very supportive of our "Let the Wookiee Eat" Epilepsy auction (Great Allentown Comic Con to host Epilepsy Awareness Auction, you could win dinner with Chewbacca actor lehighvalleylive.com), and we've been fielding calls and emails all week from Star Wars fans about tomorrow night's event.

Just as a reminder, the auction goes live Tomorrow Night, Thursday, November 17th, beginning at 6:10 PM EST. Bidding is pretty quiet on the site right now, though, so there's still a chance to sneak in and win one of these dinner events for a steal.

Unlike most of our regular auctions, this one will consist ONLY of the three dinner lots, so it will go off very quickly. I expect the whole thing to wrap up in under 15 minutes, so plan on logging on early, or leave a pre-bid/absentee bid now. Otherwise, once I say *Sold* - that's it - and I definitely don't want anyone missing out on something as special as this.

See you tomorrow night, and Thanks for supporting the Toteman Epilepsy Awareness Project Fundraiser!

Thanks to everyone for coming out this past weekend and supporting us at the Great Allentown Comic Con.

Between our floor bidders and our online bidders, you helped us to raise quite a bit of money for Toteman and his epilepsy Awareness Project. Because of you, they are one step closer to reaching their goal.

On this Thanksgiving day, I wanted to take this opportunity to let you know how much we appreciate everyone's help. We're gearing up or next month's Charity Auction for the Wounded Warrior Project, and I'll get information out about it later in the week. We look forward to seeing you there!

In the meantime, here's wishing everyone a safe and happy Thanksgiving!
