So I'm a relative newb to Joecon, I went last year but just as general admin on Sat & Sun but am planning on going this year for the full duration. My question is how does the parachute drop work, are these free figures they drop or do you have to pay in advance to be able to be in the area to pick one up, or is it just all show?

It is mainly for show and for the kids. They ask that you let the kids get the figures first.. but I have also known some of the people doing the drops, not always dropping all the figures they were given to do so..
as an added consultation... you will be able to buy the drop figure from the store while at the con. Usually cost about $30. Just be farwarned, they are usually the lowest in quantity.. so make sure you are in line for the store pretty early to ensure you can get everything that you want.

Good to know, thanks for the info here. This will be my first Joe Con as well, though I've been to many other cons. I do remember reading some drama here on the boards over the years about the availability (or lack thereof) for the parachute drop figures. It seems that the production numbers have been low in the past. Not sure what will happen this year.
