Mattel always has extra and given the outrageous price of their exclusives I'm sure there will be some left. CC 's unless they limit quantities to 2 per person, I doubt I'll be able to get one. |

The Valley Posts: 579 | have a 4 day pass (preview night also) hopefully going for only wed-Fri, I really don't want to see the madness that is Saturday. The person that said it is a "comic convention" oh so wrong, it is MUCH more than that. Really it is anything that is collectible, toys, comics, movies, tv, posters, celebs, clothing, art (comic and non) and much more. all fit into:
(the centers facts) 1.7 million interior gross sq. ft. 615,701 sq. ft. of exhibit space; 204,114 sq. ft. of meeting space including two 40,000-sq.-ft. ballrooms; and 284,494 sq. ft. of pre-function, lobby and registration areas. Over half a million square feet of contiguous exhibit space.
some people just don't realize the size of this show.

Instead I'll watch the action here and on G4 television, and give all my hard earned money to my friend at work who is going that Friday. She has orders to buy all the Cobra Commanders she sees, and perhaps a few more interesting items if I can scrape the money together. Last year she went on Sunday and missed out on the Joe exclusives, but got me all the Star Wars stuff she could carry.

The Hasbro booth was just plain ugly last year... I was lucky to get what I did given its general chaos.

i never been to one in my life so i have no idea how it goes i was hoping sumone could get me one if they go but from the sound of it this is like a fight to the death to get figures at this thing so i expect i wont be getting one after hearing this story for sure |

But then again, it may be a repeat of last year. Only time will tell... :-)
