I understand the grief over the Club Store prices ..... but .....
Look those up during & right after Con on eBay and you will really shit a brick. It’s ludicrus! (Sadly I’ve paid it!) This year with the possibility of them producing extra figures instead of vehicles this is actually an incentive for attending. I’m hoping to attend not only for the experience but also hoping to avoid getting bent over on eBay.

Joe con pricing/exclusives is kind of like buying concessions at the movie theater... if you haven't come to terms with the cost prior to the show it can be a real bummer (that or you go hungry). I treat it like going to Vegas... I take a chunk of expendable cash and if I spend it all, great... and if I bring some back... even better. Every year I usually take a little more with me... and with the *possibility* of more figures this year I'll make sure that I can "max out". I usually drop about $3,500 in the GT club line and bring about 7k total for toys.

I've never really purchased anything at JoeCon that I later regretted. I think in general, the prices are better than ebay, plus you get to see what you are buying so there are no "oh shoot, this thing is all faded" surprises.

The class I took two years ago in Loveland was one of the best things about Con. I really enjoyed myself and loved seeing everyone's figure!

Doesn't interest me but that's cool for anyone who was looking for a reason to keep Red Laser.

Unfortunately textbooks, gas, tuition, and a number of other things are keeping me from going. I hear this is going to be the last one too.

Unhappy camper here - Even disregarding missing the custom class, this should have been a three-pack from the Club, rather than a limited edition kit. Or the entire convention set. Oh well.
