Does anyone know where and when next year's convention will be held? Last years was Dallas, and the year before was Atlanta, and 2006 was New Orleans. I've heard a rumor that it will be in Rhode Island (Pawtucket or Providence, I suppose), but no rumors have been confirmed. Does anyone know anything about this at all?
Also, does anyone have any idea what the Convention Special Edition figures and vehicles will be? Anybody from Maser Collector on here? OR, what special edition figures or vehicles would you like to see at next year's convention? A special 15 pack? A small team like last year's SWAT Team? Additional members of Tiger Force or Night Force? A new/updated version of Sky Patrol or Mega Marines? Finally, who all thinks they will go to the Convention?

Hey oliverbox, what's up. I haven't been to a convention yet but it would be cool if they had it in Atlanta again.

If it's in the Northeast I'll be going. RI or Boston would be perfect.
I think they usually do a 15-pack and a 3-pack. I'd love a Nightforce or Tigerforce 15-pack.

So, do the 3-packs or 15-packs sell cheaper for those who buy them at the convention because whenever I see convention exclusives for sale online, the price tags are pretty steep. For instance, what was the cheapest you could buy the "Tanks for the Memories" set?

Yeah, much cheaper at the con itself. Same with the SDCC ones.
They are more expensive after-market becuase there is such a limited number of them in circulation.

What kind of arrangements have to be made? Do you just show up? Buy tickets? Make a reservation? Become a member? I really don't know anything about the conventions other than what I've seen from photos.

No clue. I don't know anything either. If it's like other conventions, you can sign up ahead of time (dont' need to be a member, although members may get discounts) or buy tickets at the door.
Sometimes, if sign up early, the con may have arrangements made with local hotels for cheaper rooms.
