I should just get a t-shirt printed with that on it.

Well sometimes it's weird.. I like getting a celebrity autograph and when I see 1000 people in line.. I'm like... am I missing something..... Err... No it's just really stupid people in line to get something that's free that they wouldn't pay for if it wasn't free... I'm often shocked by the amount of sh!t collectors out there.

Yeah I was planning on starting my own thread like I did last year, I'll be doing some extensive coverage and taking requests. I'm not managing a booth this year so plenty more time to grab shots!

Requests?

DC statue & figure section for sure
Hot Toys
Hasbro Transformers

What booth did you manage btw?

I was definitely going to grab shots of every statue and Hot Toys I could find, and sure, I'll grab Transformers shots!

It was the Funimation booth, pretty fun to work at but it kept me SUPER busy.

If anyone's REALLY bored I have a booth set up close to Sideshow, #1634.

When Im not there I'll probably be running up the Shifletts tab or dancing on the 40th floor at the Hyatt.

Any ideas for picking up an extra pass for Thursday?

That is NO joke! The amount of free crap given away and the mobs of people swarming to get it with arms stretched out is just staggering.

uGHHHH.. Should I, or should I not go to the Cow Boy and Aliens premier on Saturday..... I can't decide.. I know people at comic con will be busy so they probably won't line up for the entire day at the theater. Premier is at 7PM so one would have to be there by 2 or 3 to secure autographs.... hmmmmm...
