I hope so. I'll probably be sending my stand-in with money to grab a set if it looks good and is Modern Era articulation again. I still kick myself on having to pass on Blades, but money was way too tight during the con last year. :( I only managed to get the Crimson Strike Team because the gf bought it as my b-day present. Oh boy did she tease the last two or three weeks as I waited for the b-day to hit.

This year will be different. I plan to take enough to get all the exclusives and to get a few goodies from the sales floor. I bet it was rough having to wait to get that present....but I bet ot was worth it. |

I would like to go, but the airfare/hotel is too expensive. I'd rather put that money towards the exclusives.

God yes. Only one Viper needed his helmet pulled off and re-glued from the crooked position, but the set rocks. Still need to get ahold of the con comic book so I can read how it all ties together.

Ok...
International G.I. Joe Collectors' Convention - GIJoeCon 2010! for people complaining/ speculating about hotel fees. the rooms are 135 a night (for 4 days, Thursday thru Sunday) Welcome Sharing a room or crashing with friends would reduce this fee to 135 for the whole weekend. (which is what I usually do). ...and its a lot more fun to hang out with friends then room alone. as for costumes. i don't recommend flying with Airsoft guns or knives internationally, but according to FCC regulations, Both can be carried in you checked baggage domestically (I brought airsoft pistols and an M-16 to the last 4 Joecons) and have not been stopped. also, based off a remark Brian said on the club's website. (and after last year's backlash) I think the Con set will go back to ARAH construction

We'll see. I will have just started pre-deployment training so I don't know if I will be able to, but if I can go, I will.

This news makes me a little less excited about the con, actually - and I'm a die hard RAH guy too! I would prefer a mix of RAH and 25th-style exclusives, personally. We need to draw in the new collectors to the convention.
