Massachusetts G.I. Joe Sightings

IDK what everyone's beef is with the RI Con. The entrance fee is a little steep at $25 a pop. I don't plan on going to any panels and it doesn't seem like you get much for it. I would not expect to find any deals on Joes or MU. It's a comic con so expect to see lots of comics. The lines are not going to deter me.

There was a Thanos/Adam Warlock comic pack at the RI Comic Con. I didn't check the price, though.

I don't get the hate for this show. It's their first time. I'm happy to have a con in RI.

The ticket situation is a bit screwy but otherwise it was fine. Perhaps it's because the Beer Fest was taking place today too. It definitely had a Super Mega Fest feel to it. Since they know they can draw a crowd, hopefully next year they'll get a bit more space for the guests. Autograph row got a little crowded at times.

I took the two kids today - my daughter wanted to meet Jordan Hembrough from the Toy Hunter show; unfortunately Hurricane Sandy forced him to cancel. My son loved the Star Wars cosplayer. We talked to a really cool Sandtrooper.

I'll be heading back tomorrow to snag an autograph or two.

That may not be bad..is it complete?

Looks it from the photo. I bought some Marvel Legends figures off him some months back and had a good experience.

whitemo58 · 11-03-2012, 09:08 PM

I'm down...$10 doesn't seem too bad...

Found a Galactus today at home goods-----yay! There are at least 10 of the silver purple Sentinels that were just being put out also if anyone is looking for them. Since there were so many I bet they're going to be all over the place
