Botcon is probably a little more shaky than anything. All the rules/decisions coming down (new and old), the CC thing, the response. It'll be wounded, but survive. Joecon will live on. The Joe community as a whole is quickly very forgetful when a new carrot is dangled in front of them. They're like a shy nerd getting a hint of attention from a girl. No matter how questionable the girl's actions, they'll take the chance just for the attention whether it be buying them drinks or a new car.

It's up there with the chest puffing of "I'd pay $XX dollars for Character" and those who get all excited to claim they will buy lots of something others hate so much only to not bother once it comes out.
Vehicles come to mind for that last one. How many claim they'll buy scores of them when they come out only to turn around and wait for them to show up at Ross? ;)

I'm taking my son to Botcon. Any of you that have met him know that he loves Transformers. My dream was for us to go to Botcon and then Joecon attending both in the same year. Regretfully, we probably won't attend Joecon. I looked at flying/staying in NO and was just adding up to way too much. Maybe if there's a carpool or group going but as of now it's Botcon only.

I will be at Botcon. Looking forward to it! I've never been to a Joecon but will most likely go to one if it ever comes back to Texas.

If vehicles continue on with the horrid turds of figures they are showing them comming with in Retalaition...My vehicle army will cease to procure new hardware lol (unless somehow we get a redone Moray, Mauler or Night Raven, think i can live holding my breathe on those EVER coming out ever again)...the drivers were the only reason I would buy multiples of any vehicle (I Am still opening Jungle Vipers form the target exclusives from POC lol). I wanted a ton of the Swamp Vipers coming with the new watermocassin but seeing its a Sgt. Savage quality figure...I will be passing a ton of stuff this year. Might as well, the SDCC Hiss+SDCC Red Jinx, the Joecon Oktober Guard, Joe Clubb SS, and a few 5x red ninjas/5x black dragin ninjas (along with thier obligatroy case packed addtional no need figures from BBTS) set is going to put a quick hole in this years Joe budget...oh and my 4x Sideshow Crimson Guards are going to hurt at some point...Zartan already prcoessed so thats one down for them so far...

We probably won't hear anything more about the FSS until Joecon and probably wont be able to order for a few month after.
As for going to Joecon... I am jobless and i'm still going. Not Missing out on the Oktober Guard! LOL

Agreed. Still haven't seen any Vintage SW waves after Phantom Menace. Marvel Universe has gone dry. The Avengers line is total crap as well as over-priced. There's just a huge difference between now and what we had out there just a couple of years ago.
