This is a normal convention for TMNT fans to go to, surprised it's not listed already. TMNT Guest: Kevin Eastman Stan Sakai Michelan Sisti Fans going: Brinatello cynlee zkarlette reincarnated_turtle_fan GreenWillow Leonardo Location: San Diego Convention Center, San Diego, CA Cost: Haven't found it listed on the page yet. (The area where I normally get that is the connection site that helps me find guest, but for some odd reason they don't list the price for this convention).

Update to say: I am most likely going to have to cancel going this year, so you can list me as a question mark. Ninjara is unable to go for a number of important reasons, and we were going to be sharing a hotel room. That professional friend of mine is expecting to have her own room, and I can't afford the hotel room on my own. I'll confirm my cancellation status in a couple weeks. Thank you for adding Stan Sakai to the list of guests.  |

tsk! That's being silly, Andrew!  I still don't know if I will make it. I have a couple more weeks to get a roomie, and that will determine it. But whether I go or not should have nothing to do with other's choices!! |

I will be there as well...fell into some good luck with this temp job I got so I had some extra money to make the trip. O/T: Apologies for being so out of the loop--I've not been here in quite awhile, but I'm alive. |

Good luck cynlee!!! I hope you make it!!! I am planning on wearing my Leo costume for a short time on Friday, to the UY booth, and hopefully over to catch Kevin E., too. I promised the UY Dojo I would do it since last year, but told them no way on Saturday. It'll be a lot of work to put it on and do it, but if I don't...I think they will kill me.  |

Ok, I'm not going to SDCC, but I have a slight favour to ask of the Con goers. It involves the dolls I collect - Living Dead Dolls. Leo, come back, I'm not asking anyone to pick up any dolls for me.*  This year, Mezco is not selling a single Con Exclusive doll, they've put out a set of 4 dolls. Very limited quantities. Last year, their con exclusive was deemed by many fans to be not exclusive enough (ie. too many made), so this year, the quantity has been reduced...which has also angered some fans. I was just wondering if folks are near the Mezco/Living Dead Doll booth during the Con, if they could check on the dolls, just to see when they sell out, just to satisfy my own curiousity. Hee, I'm just wondering how many fans will end up in fights over this year's exclusives. I don't want anyone going out of their way or anything...but if you hear any grumblings I'd love to hear what's being said. * They put the exclusives up for sale, for a short period of time, on their Mezco website (they did the same last year). Despite vowing to never order from them again, because I'm going to seriously get zinged for customs/duty/brokerage fees when the dolls cross the border, I ordered a set anyway. I did, however, miss out on the 9 minutes it took for the pre-sale of the variant dolls to sell out. |

I got my four day pass paid for!
And the way the site is talking, they may very well be turning people away from the door on Saturday, like last year!
Anyway, YES, I'm definitely going. Dang it, last year I thought about finding out about reserving a fan table so TMNT fans could meet up. Anyway, Leonardo, is there a set time yet for UY table? And like I said there, I hope you have someone helping you walk through that crowd (even on a Friday)! You'll be mobbed!
Yay, Zkarlette is going too? HOW can we find anyone there?
And I remember those dolls from last year. If I can remember I will check it out and see the status of the dolls. I'm trying to get to this one table the first day to buy a limited edition statue as it is-- hopefully THEY won't be sold out, either.
*counts the days*

Raph-- You crack me up.... literally.... So you just want to want to know how fast they sell out? And that means you already have a set of exclusives and therefore truly don't need anyone to get you them, or that is a different set of exclusives?? And if those boneheads didn't learn from a few years ago when I got you that first LDD for you..... Then they deserve rioting LDD fans to shred their booth to the ground and carry the pieces and the people responsible around the Con hall a few times. (And it's a reallllly big hall.) Cynlee-- Originally Ninjara would have been my floor guide. I am *hoping*it will be my new roomie, hoping it works out around her schedule. I don't know what time the UY meet up is, Todd-sama hasn't sent it up yet. |

They are coming out with two sets of exclusives, the regular ones (I think there are something like 500 sets, which they have already sold some of) and the variant set (something like 50 came up for presale). I actually don't know if the variants will be sold at the con. I have pre-ordered the 'regular' exclusives, and I'm not worried about the variants. So, that is correct, I do not need anyone to buy me dolls. Thanks. I know you would have loved to spend preview night in line at that booth.  |
