    Think B.A. Where did you hide the Megos?

      Wish I could but I already know I can't. My work schedule is nuts right now and I'm talking 24/7 on call. Wish the Adv. Con would add a decent guest list and I'd book that for certain.

          Not setting up there at Adv. Con, my boy is due to arrive around June 11th, too close to the show date to risk it, I didn't set up last year either but sold $800 worth walking around.... Next weekend will be the last show for me for awile...

            Is there normally a lot of vintage stuff there? I've been to Wizard World cons and such where vintage was in short supply. Hate to be disappointed.

              Mostly newer stuff at Adv. Con with some vintage mixed in, 1st couple of years I picked up some decent stuff, last 2 have not been great for deals...

                Also Adventure Con has changed their rules for getting autographs. You have to buy tickets at the door to give to the actors. Each ticket is $10 and some actors charge 3 tickets($30) PER autograph. For the actor to get his money, they turn in the tickets to Adventure Con and they pay them. Of course Adventure Con KEEPS half the money. Just a lousy way to overcharge their customers and rape thier guests. This is why many of their former guests don't show up anymore.
