Not going. It isn't that strong of a toy show which is my only real interest. And I want to save the money for JoeCon. I heard the entire case of Star Trek: Next Generation was going to be there.

I'm probably going, but it seemed last year especially the crowds were just insane compared to previous years. In the aisles it was so packed if you lifted your feet off the floor you wouldn't fall down...which is rather disgusting considering some of the people in attendance haha.

Megacon is always so hit or miss though, there have been years where I've found virtually nothing, but last year I scored like 20 VvV 2 packs for $3 each, so it's usually at least worth a look.

I'll be there. Already got my 1 day tix for Sat. March 16th. I plan on being there from opening (10am) until my feet hurt, which from past experience is after about 5 hours or 3pm.

It would be cool if we could setup a FL tanker meet & greet. Holler.

It's possible that I might drive up for it.

Yeah, that's my thinking...I hate the idea of dropping
$300 or $400 on it (tickets,gas, food, hotel) and getting two figures.
Would rather spend it elsewhere...

Scored the Cobra Invasion Team 3-pack at the Ocala Target this morning. Put the number in the machine and it said they were in the stock room so the dude went and looked and found one. Make sure you specify which set you want cause last years sets have the same DCPI.

They had done their reset and are in the process of organizing things and stocking the shelves, he said to wait about a week or so for things to get back to normal. All they had were some wave one figures on the pegs.

Firefly is SWEET! The Invasion trooper is cool and Storm Shadow is... meh.

Yep, I went out this morning in my area as well.. They had all the wave one figures up.. Also some kinda mini figures in what looked to be like a 4 or 5 pack.... I forget what they were called. They also had 2 cobra hiss tanks, and one 3 pack from wave one.. with the red ninja..

Found a cyber ninja at walmart on 87 and 12. They also had a lady jaye, a le-louge firefly, a bunch of flints and a wave two roadblock.

I don't have a good feeling abut my WalMart carrying Joes. Maybe after their reset, I dunno. The action figure aisle is full of remote control vehicles and Nerf guns. The figures they do have, some Star Wars and super hero stuff are mostly peg-warmers and the pegs are pretty bare. Plenty of The Corps though!!
