Who's going to C2E2 - I thought I saw a Facebook page about it

[drmego]

It's a little less than two weeks to C2E2 in Chicago. This year I will be attending - at least Friday and Saturday.
Is there a Chicago area group going? I seem to recall seeing something about Kane County being the same
weekend.

I know Diamond Select Toys is having a panel on Saturday afternoon at 3pm for all non-Minimates product.
I plan to attend that.

Cool! Can't wait to see if Diamond Select announces anything Mego-like!

Paul, I had the Facebook page up on it, but the people who said they were going decided to not go. LOL

I will be there for sure. I put a message on your Facebook post about it.

Diamond Select Toys: The Best of All Worlds
Saturday, April 26, 3:00pm-4:00pm, Room #S401CD
The creative minds at Diamond Select Toys are known for their diverse product lines, from 7-inch Select action figures to electronic vehicles to role-play items to vinyl banks. With Minimates represented elsewhere, the DST team will attempt to cover every non-Minimates item they have coming up, from such brands as Marvel Comics, Plants vs. Zombies, Batman, The Walking Dead, Star Wars, Star Trek, Universal Monsters, Godzilla, Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill, Clerks, Lost in Space, Alien, Sin City and more! Panelists will include Diamond Select Toys President Chuck Terceira, Marketing Supervisor Zach Oat and EMCE Toys co-founder Paul "Dr. Mego" Clarke. They'll also hold a Q&A, announce a brand-new product line, and hold a prize drawing at the end of the panel!

The attendance of the good Doctor in this panel gives me so many hopes... He said in another thread that he had his new band-less body tied with a client... The possibility of that client being Diamond and that this body could be used in lines like: Star Trek, Star Wars, Lost In Space or even Marvel are both thrilling and scary...

[drmego]

Yes, I will be there with a big grin on. If you can be there, please by at the panel.

1 week away! I can already smell Mego Marvel!

[Brown Bear]

This could be VERY exciting news. Fingers crossed for some new re-mego's from Paul.

[madmarva]

Walking Dead?

Sure to be the longest week of the year...

So, how did it go? Any updates?

I was at c2e2 Friday, and will be there again tomorrow. Unfortunately, I couldn't go today to attend this panel. I was hoping to meet Dr. Mego.

I was hoping the sleeves would be fixed, but I guess they will to the retro + on-model costume.
