Love and Darkness and My Sidearm...

This Week: Heading down to Florida for Wasteland event

The plan this week is to leave Pittsburgh, PA on Wednesday evening after work and head down to Raleigh, NC to stay overnight at my cousin's, and then continue on to Orlando, FL, Thursday to rendezvous with other Mindgame Productions operators. We will caravan up to Wayne's World in Ocala together on Friday. Friday, we have some setup to do on-site, and then Saturday is the big event - Wasteland - an airsoft LARP based on the post-apocalyptic themed video game, Fallout 3. I've seen other events with a post-apocalyptic theme, and cosplayers and LARPers doing Fallout 3 events, but I don't think there's ever been an event like this one in these parts. This will be a unique experience for all the players, and I'm very excited to be a part of it.

[Featured Brand] Eyewear: WileyX

Choosing protective eyewear is an investment, and as a brand, WileyX offers very high quality and value. They also offer many different styles to accommodate different needs and head sizes. So I have added the full line of WileyX tactical eyewear to our store. You can choose from goggles, which exceed military specifications for ballistic impact protection, and are NVG compatible, to the classic Saber style, which provides high velocity impact safety (ANSI Z87.1-2003 standards) for a very affordable price.

But that's not the coolest thing about WileyX...what is cool about WileyX is seeing them on one of my favorite sci-fi shows - Stargate Universe. Yes indeed, WileyX eyewear was featured prominently in the second episode, where several character traveled to a desert planet. It only made sense that they would be wearing WileyX to protect them from the harsh climate. I'm pretty sure that Scott and Greer were wearing the XL-1 Advanced climate-control specs (with a removable facial cavity seal), and Eli was either wearing the Romer II or Blink sunglasses.


XL-1 Advanced:


WileyX Romer II, or Blink?

Blink:
RomerII:
...the more I look at them, the more I'm thinking Blink.
