Big Apple Con Nov. 2005 Review

[IveyAngelo]

Man for me this all started on Thursday, getting ready to go.  I wanted to head out by 3 or 4 pm, so in the morning I went out with my mom for a bit and did some errans.  I came home, and finshed packing up a bit than had to run out with my sister, it was still before noon so I thought I'd get back to the house by at least 2pm to take my bath and head out.   No such luck, I got back to the house after 4pm because we ended up having to drive all over the place just to find a Sam club that had what I wanted.  After driving around the world I got us each something to eat than took her home.  Once I got home I took my bath, no way I was hitting the road without doing that first.  Than came the drive.  I got on the road sometime around 5:45-6pm and basically drove all the way through with only like 3 stops... besides for stopping for gas which was another 3 stops.  This was the fastest I ever made it out here, at parking outside at 5am Friday morning.

Now I figured I'd get some sleep in the car, though the neighbor has one of those lights that come on to a sensor... and well it kept shinning right in my car at me.  So I didn't really get to sleep.  I didn't want to wake anyone up, so I waited in the car till I saw life inside the house.   After seeing life inside I tried calling a few times to see if Pichu was awake, though no answer.  Around 7:30am  I didn't feel as bad about the idea of waking her up, so I went up and knocked.  Her mom answered the door, and sure enough she was asleep.  Of course she wasn't excepting me until around 9pm at night so it kind of surprised her.

Animedir was over, (I met her at Anime Vegas when I met Pichu).  So they got up and started moving around, we went to BK for breakfast.  It was nice getting a chance to hang out before heading out.  I wasn't even really tired.  After BK we came back to Pichu's house and watched some of the video from Anime Next 2003.   Though Animedir had to go to the doctors so we took her there and dropped her off.   Than came back to Pichu's house again this time waiting for Catman to show up, since he was giving me a ride to the train station.  

While waiting for him I got to meet all of Pichu's pets.  She's got two birds, one of which reminds me of some of the birds I had in the past and by the brightness of the feathers I think he's a boy.   He's figure trained and seems to like being whisled too.  The other one I haven't gottan to know to well, though it's talking to me right now.    She's also got two cats, one is very shy so I've only seen it a few times.  Though Tigger is a friendly cat.  He lets me pet him, and I been playing with him a bit.    

When Catman got here, Pichu and I had to part ways since she had to go to work.   Catman gave me a ride to the train station and told me where to go from there, and I said bye to him and went on my way.  I learned an important lesson... sprint phones do not work in the subways here.  I was on the phone with Fae when it cut me off, I called her back when I got back into the city and she was on the phone with me as I looked for the Penn Plaza (which is when I learned there's more than one building with that name on it out here).   Once I found the right place, I said bye to Fae and got my ticket into the covention.  

Now the first so many people got Heavy Metal toys here, first they went to give me Kerrie... though I stopped a worker and asked if they had any Julie's left and they only had one and gave it to me instead.  So I was happy, I got a Julie toy  Than I went and started looking around.  My search was for Scott, any 4Kids people, or Dave Sims  First bit of searching... nothing people were still setting up and the guest were being switched all around.  The place seemed more like a mess than a convention.  Infact I was disappointed with the set up.   I found the actor area with the Harry Potter people (talked to one of them asking him about the movie a little), Peter Tork is up there so I kind of said a small hi to him since he watched me walk by, than I went over and found the Artist alley area.  Which is on the other side of the floor... while walking through there I found a friend of mine from Motor City Comic Con and stopped talking to him for a bit.

While talking to him, they sat Dave Sims right next to him!   So that was kind of cool, but not too long after Dave sat down he was moved to the other side of the floor closer to where the stars are.  So I made sure to take note of where he was being moved too.  Than I walked around a little bit.  Some girls stopped me and asked to interview me... kind of surprised me, seem to get that at Cons a bit, but before it was because I ran a booth at the con.  I talked with the girls and a guy over heard the interview and moved in and sold me some TMNT pins, but the deal was I would buy the pins so I could have the board they were on which was a TMNT board.   So he agreed to the sale, than I finished the interview with the girls.  I went back to my friend's table and he offered me to leave my stuff there so my hands weren't over crowded.  

Than I went wandering again, I walked around that place at least 3 times before Scott showed up.  I went over and introduced myself to Scott and met Dennie as well which is a back ground artist for the TMNT series.  So I stood and talked with them for awhile.  While there, Shredder called me and I told him where to find us.   So he came around and joined in on talking.  Really I'm surprised how long I stood there talking with Scott, I usually try to walk around the convention a bit and not be there the full time.  Though there wasn't anything at this convention I really needed to go too otherwise.  While talking to Scott the guy who sold me the pins came down stairs and saw me telling me they got some TMNT posters and for me to go up and tell them that I'm the one who bought the backing for the TMNT pins.  So I went up there, and they had Seven posters.  I bought two of them, the other five I have.   Than went back down stairs.  Now I was getting tired and Scott could tell so he let me sit behind the table next to him.

Scott brought a lot of cool stuff to show us, including some very very nice art pieces that he's done.  I really enjoyed going through his book of work.  It was interesting seeing some more of the Scott-Toons and other drawings.   I got two favorites of his work, one of which was in a program and looks very very well done and active.  It's of time square and all this different stuff is going on... you can stare at it for a long time and keep spotting something new and interesting.  The other one I like is for 10 Little Indain show, it's half a skull with a feathered hat.  Really really nice work!  

I went back up to my friend's table and got my bag of stuff that was up there and went back down and sat with Scott for the rest of the day.  He was very nice and seemed to be enjoying the conversation as much as Shredder and I were.   The funny thing is, which Scott even said himself.   He looks like Baxter Stockman from the series, so it's kind of like we're sitting there talking with Baxter Stockman, but much nicer than the guy on TV  

When Dennie got up and started to pack up, so did Scott.   Shredder was waiting for his folks to show up, and I was doing phone calls with Pichu to find out what we were doing once I got back.  We said our good byes to Scott, we might get to see him on Sunday.   I hung out with Shredder till his mom and sister got there, than I went on my way back to the train station.  I met up with Catman and Pichu once I got back to their side of town than we went for pizza.  

After pizza we came back to her place, and watched some TMNT.  I think it was after 11 that I finally went to sleep.

So far today I'm up, she's not yet.  Though when she gets up she's gotta get ready and head to work.  Than RedBarron is taking me back to the bus station.  I should get some cash out of an ATM today, so later I'll give him gas money for doing this for me.

I'm going to get ready for the new day and catch TMNT today.     So I'll be around till 11.

[Shredder]

Heh, if Veronica is only going to be there on Saturday, see if you can give me a call and hand it over to her a bit, or fill her in on TMNTRadio ....

If Wayne, Campel, and Veronica come in today instead of sunday, let me know and I'll try and make it

[IveyAngelo]

I'll let you know what's going on... really I was surprise she didn't show up yesterday, I can't wait to see her.  Because this convention seems more like the type where we can just hang out and talk with them than what the Anime Cons have been.  Anime Cons are great for panels, comic Cons are great for just relaxing and enjoying being there.  

I dout Wayne and them will show up today, if they said Sunday than we can hope they'll be there.   We're just hoping they can make it.    

I'll be getting to the con more around noon today, even though it opens at 10.  Though there's no panels or anything that I really need to go too, so I'll mainly be over in the 4Kids area meeting the guys there.  Later going to go see Harry Potter.  So I'll give my report when I get the chance, maybe tomorrow morning.

[Shredder]

I hate how my pictures turn out.  I look in the mirror and I don't think the old face looks that bad,  but the camera picks up every detail.  That and even though I can see 360 degrees when the shot was taken, my eyes for some reason automatically close halfway...and no flash either...

Ah well, Scott did comment on how much he looked like Baxter

[IveyAngelo]

Fast review of this morning before heading out....  

Woke up kind of early, wrote my review, went down stairs and said hi to Pichu's family while she was sleeping.  I kept poking at her, was hoping to get breakfast before she had to go to work... but she was tired so she didn't get up till an hour before work and we were taking our time so didn't get to go for food.   Though she watched some of 4Kids with me as I got to play on her computer.   Even downloaded mIRC so I can say hi there over the weekend.  

After Pichu left for work, I watched TMNT, talked on the phone with Eclipse, and trying to get a hold of my ride to the train station.... may end up having to drive myself, though that cost for parking.  Blah... evil money.

I think I will drive myself, wish me luck at not getting lost.  *G*

[Kazari]

OMG!! Scott does look like Baxter!!!

[WolfofMibu]

HOLY CRAP!!!


Scott looks JUST LIKE BAXTER with CRAZY pants!!!


That is amazing!!

[Shredder]

http://www.twelveoclock.net/junk/BaxterMikey1.mpg

Scotts unfortunatly didn't turn out as clearly as Waynes did, but their both definetly useable ...

The convention blurred together with so much going on, so I'm going to have to rely on Iveys account more than my own .  But the story b oard artists where really cool to talk to, including Ed who woekd on the original series during the carter years.  Adrian did a really cool Shredder versus Karai image for me and Ed did a great Bishop, wich unfortunatly didn't scan too well.

Dunno if I can post the Bishop one as it might be spoiler related.  Have to see if I can get th OK from Ed, but  I can post the Karai VERSUS Shredder one..



And this one Scott did for me of one of my characters.  Both these drawings where done in under 30 minutes..

[Mindy]

Hehe, Scott and Baxter

Glad you guys had a good time! Hopefully I can make the next Apple Con.

[Danceingfae]

I wish i could have gone! I would have loved talking with the Harry Potter people (love those books and i like how the forth movie came out!), and hanging out with Scott and the 4Kids people and *sighs*.

It sounds like it was a busy weekend so far and i'm hoping that you were able to have tons of fun while doing it! Maybe i'll be able to go next year... (yeah right) well money wise prolly not, but i'll defiantely be there for Anime Next 2006!

[Shredder]

Signature test...

And for those who couldn't make this year, plan for March, that might be the one to go to

[Michaelangelo]

Hey everyone, a bit more a review going to be done now.  

After leaving on Saturday I drove out and had to look for the train station.  I knew the exit so that was no trouble, but I didn't know where to go after I got off at the exit.  So I went in circles till I got a phone call from Catman telling me how to get the train station, which really helped.  I bought a two day parking pass than headed into NYC.  Once I got to the convention center the artist were already at the table.  This is when I got the chance to meet..

Jose Velasco, storyboard artist.
Darcy Vorhees, storyboard revision
Keith Gardner, prop designer
Adrian Barrios, character designer

WONDERFUL people.   Jose was doing free sketches all day and he really did keep busy.  Darcy and Keith weren't really doing too many sketches or anything.  Dracy did one for me, which was very nice of her since she originally said she wasn't going to do any since she didn't feel comforable drawing there.  And Keith did a drawing for me as well.   It was really nice of them to do these.   Denny Fincke (background artist) was there again.     He's really the one who set this all up for us, he was up walking around and talking to people pushing sales on their sketch book (Highly recommended if you go to the a convention with them).  

I spent most of the day with them, talking about what's going on and who's who..  I did go up stairs into the rest of the convention twice, but I don't have money so that was more torture than anything.  I had to get a autograph for my sister so I did that and came back down stairs.  

I have invited the artist to TMNT-L and will be sending them emails inviting them as well.  They're really wonderful people and I'm sure they'd love to get the chance to talk to all of us.  Jose is known as the Boardman because he does join message boards.  

Once I get home I'll scan the sketches I got that day.    I also have to get a new pictures of my T-shirt because it's much more filled up.  

I didn't get to take any pictures on Saturday because of the fact that I forgot my camera at Pichu's house.  Oops  But I did get some video.  

Veronica Taylor showed up with her daughter (6 years old), and they sat at a table across from the artist.  So I would go over and talk to her as well.  She didn't care for the big panel either at Anime Vegas.  I didn't have the gun or the Anime Vegas shirt on me for her to sign and that ended up being the only day she was there.  Bummer eh?

I'm trying to recall what else happened that day, but it was mainly a lot of talking and watching them draw.  Oh!  I did a drawing of Raphael for Jose!  And promised a drawing to Adrian... I don't do too many drawings in one day because it really hurts my hand!  Really HURTS!

After the convention I met up with Pichu and Catman than we headed out to find a threater to see Harry Potter.  Originally we were going to go to an Imax threatre but they said it was too far to make it in time.  So we ended up at Lowe's.   Though the movie didn't start till 11pm, so we had to stall sometime.  We went to eat at a dinner right next store to Lowe's...

I figured I'd try the pizza... once again... I don't like thin crust... and this pizza was worse than the last... I couldn't even finish it.   So I was disappointed.  Though I did get cheese sticks so I ate those and drank my water.  After that we had time to walk around and to a store and I bought a bag of KitKats, figured something to nibble on at the movie threatre.  Though once we finally did make to the movie threatre it was so packed that I felt odd even thinking of reaching into my back pack to grab the snack so I didn't eat anything durning the movie, which is ok.

MIGHT BE SPOILER!   SO SPOILER WARNING FOR HARRY POTTER MOVIE!  (high light to read)

The movie was very long, and had great specail effects.   I felt for Harry when Ron got mad at him, I mean come on Harry didn't do it himself, he even said before hand that he doesn't want it.   Though it happened to him any how.  And people should of realized there was something wrong with 4 names coming out instead of just 3.  I didn't feel like this was my favorite of the Harry Potter movies, though I did like it.  I believe my favorite part was when Harry was taking the bath.  I had no trouble with the ending because I know it's weak only because it's left open for the next movie.


* END OF SPOILER AREA *

After the movie we went back to NJ, I dropped RedBarron off at home than went back to Pichu's house and crashed.

[Shredder]

Hey Mikey, who was the artist on Sunday sitting to the left of Edwin?  He was the one who's interview you cut short because of lack of questions :0.  I was going to shoot him an email and tell him thanks for coming, but I never did catch his name..

[Michaelangelo]

I'll name all of the artist from Sunday when I do my review, but that was Jason Narvaez a storyboard artist.  

[Kazari]

Can you scan the pics they drew for you?

[Michaelangelo]

When I get home, right now I'm still in NJ, I'm hoping to be home tomorrow.  We'll see though because I've been invited to stay one more night, it's going to matter if I feel awake enough to drive if I'm going to leave or not tonight.  Heading into the city today

[Kazari]

Lucky!! Have fun!! Hmm you on a wireless connection or something? take plenty of the pics of the city! Go on the uptown tour!

[Michaelangelo]

I'm at Pichu's house so I'm using her internet.  She's at class till 1pm.  After she gets back, she's going to go into the city with me.  In the mean time I'm getting to sit here and hang out.  Her Cat has been keeping me company.    And really I'm enjoying some down time to relax a little, since this has been such a busy weekend.

I wish I had my own wireless connection that I could travel with.  That would be Great!  My mom is talking about how she wouldn't mind me having it either, who knows maybe after the money problems in my family is fixed (major problems going around lately gotta sell a house before it totally drains us), I'll be able to look into something like that.

[Mily]

Ahhh, once again it sounds awesome, hehehehe, I saw Harry Potter on saturday so I could read your little review and I kinda feel the same way but I liked that scene too, lol, but I had someone talking to me through it so I need to go see it again...,

Anyway, that sounded like a very nice Con! Like with nice people and all that, sounds really like I would have met some great people if I had gone..., come on next May! Get here so I can finally go to one of these!

[scottw11354]

Hey all, Lemme tell ya' ...I had FUUUUNNNN at the convention.M and N.... You two make a great team and I AM HONORED That you would take the time to hang with me. I'm laffing at the messages  posted that I look like Baxter....except a little pudgier.Hmmmm...I shoulda' shaved. I wish that I could've been there ALL three days but I had a childrens show to perform and a rehersal to attend. Well, at least I got a chance to make SOME of it. Credit must go to Denny Fincke. He's the man who set that up. Thanks for putting up the photo  and my cartoon. Later.-SCOTT

[Michaelangelo]

I'm so glad you had fun Scott!  The convention was a nice place to just relax, I have to amit comic cons are more relaxing than Anime cons, you feel like you're always running at the anime cons for a panel or trying to make the autograph times since the Voice Actors only do an hour or so of autographing a day or right after their panels.   It's not as easy to be able to relax and talk.  Though they're still fun.

I'm going to do my review of Sunday, since I got time to sit here and type (wow, me getting all three days of a convention done in the week of the convention, is this like a record for me with reviews?).

After going to sleep around 3:30 because of when we got home from Harry Potter, I got up around 7:30am to get ready for the convention on Sunday.   Pichu and I started to get around and headed to BK for breakfast again, since it's close and a cheap easy breakfast.   After eatting we got on the road to the train station where we were going to meet up with RedBarron (who I found out isn't the nick I should be using for him, gotta get a new nick name for him ).  Lucky I got a two day parking pass so I didn't have to pay again for parking.  We than went up to the train and headed to NYC for the convention.  Once we got to the convention, I went right over to the 4Kids table, Denny and Scott were there, so I got to talk with them again for a little bit.

SimbasPride showed up, at first I didn't know that was her from the list.  Though after I heard her mention who she was I let her know who I am here.  So that was cool getting to meet another list member.  She was there with her dad to see Dan Green.  While she waited for Dan to showed up I spoke with the TMNT artist that were showing up.   As I got to meet Edwin Nebres, Storyboard artist and Jason Narvaez, Storyboard artist.   I interviewed them with my camera and learned that Edwin also worked on the original TMNT series.  Durning the 1995 and 1996 series.  Who would of ever known that there was another connection between those series.  

When Wayne and Dan showed up, I figured I'd wait for them to get to the table to greet them, though SimbasPride ran over to them and started talking.  I waited for a little bit than decided to go over to where they were and say hi.  Getting a hug hello from Wayne and shook hands with Dan introducing myself.  I showed Wayne where the table was, but Dan didn't get to the table right away as Simba was spending time with him.  I figured I'd stand back and let her have her time meeting with him, she seemed so happy it was a dream come true for her.

I had Wayne sign a few things, including a gun I got from Anime Vegas.  I also had him sign a few other things and I gave him a stack of cards from the first set of TMNT cards that came out in 2003.  They were all sliver cards and a few game cards from the card game.   Still want to find him an ooze card and a sewer lid card.   We talked for a bit, and Pichu showed up getting to hang out a little with Dan and got to say hi to Wayne.  Giving them a chance to breath I walked over and said hi to the artist again as more was showing up I got to meet David Rodriguez (Storyboard artist) and Adrian came back to the convention again.  

Standing there talking with them I'd get to meet others that either worked on TMNT like one of the Producers, Sarah Nesbitt.   She was nice enough to talk with me as well.  Everyone there has been so wonderful I can't thank them enough for stopping by the convention and talking with us!  I really can't and I also can't thank the VAs and Artist for the autographs and sketches that were done at the convention it really was nice of all of them!!!

I went over and talked some more to Dan and got him to sign my shirt and a few DVD covers.  We took a few pictures than he had to be on his way.  Though Wayne hung around the table for a bit, he did video for Shredder and left a message on Pichu's cell phone.   Both of which are very cool.    It wasn't as busy as Saturday so there was a lot more time to talk and interact with everyone there.  This time I didn't leave the table area, I was so worn out from 4 hours of sleep, and just how little sleep in all I've gottan this weekend that it was easier to stay in one spot, also I have a tooth ache in the back of my mouth which doesn't have me wanting to move around that much either.  Though they didn't seem to mind too much.

Really I think Denny enjoyed picking on me a lot.   "Give others a chance to talk to Wayne" was one of his lines.  And he picked on me that I didn't win either of the drawings for TMNT prizes.  Though I was cool without winning, because I saw it went to very happy children, not people who just want to win to sell.  I know those toys will be opened used and loved.   Which is the reason toys are made for.   Congrats to both winners!

Scott had to leave a bit early so we said our good byes to him, though first I had him sign my autogrpah book which I have all of my friends sign and than said my good byes.   I love that autograph book, since I usually only have people sign it after they get to know me a little bit so they can do what they want in there.. write a letter, draw... and all of the autographs from everyone come out so nice.  Heh I still pick on Fugitoid for parts of his... it's a very nice page long letter

Wayne got to go and shop around at the convention for a bit, which is something he usually can't do at anime conventions.  So I think he enjoyed that.  I did a drawing for Adrian, since I did one for Jose the day before and promised Adrian one on Sunday.   I gave him a drawing of all four Turtles.   I know I shouldn't be drawing as much as I am right now... but I do force myself at times just so I don't loose what I worked for all those years with my hand.  I hate the pain, but I'd hate myself if I ever give up to it.

Most of the day was just hanging around again.   I do so need to get my sketches signed.  I did do some small video interviews with some of the artist so I'll be able to post some stuff.  Though I'll like to invite them here so people can really be able to talk and ask them their own questions.  Get to know them as we have with Wayne and Scott.  They're just as wonderful and as important to the series.  

After the convention we went out to Pizza Hut and I finally had some real pizza.  Though the service really stunk.  I hated the lady runing the register she was very rude in the way she'd answer her questions.  She must of been having a bad day though you don't take it out on the costumers we didn't do it.   This pizza hut even though it's an eat in doesn't have it so you can buy personal pan pizzas with what you want on them... they don't even have ham or pineapple.  So I got a salade and a cheese pizza.  Put my ranch and salade on my pizza and enjoyed that.

After eatting we headed back to NJ.  Pichu durning this time found that she likes my more serious side.  She loves to ask questions, and it's funny she's so entertaining while asking questions because she gets this face like she's worried about asking.   I want her to know when she reads this, that I'm not annoyed at all and have enjoyed EVERY talk we've had.   You're a GREAT person!  And that's for everyone else to know, get to know her, she's really a sweet girl  

Animedir showed up after we got back to Pichu's house so the three of us sat around and talked.  Heh we didn't get the chance to do much more than that.  Since there was so much to talk about.   We finally went to sleep, this time Pichu and I shared the bed and Animedir took the floor.

Pictures and scans to come once I get home (still at Pichu's house)

[Mily]

Awww! Now I wanna get to know her, That sounds like so much fun! I can't wait till I get to talk to you again!

[SimbasPride]

Hey guys, it's awesome reading what you did at the con Ivey, makes me wish even more that i could have gone... *Sighs* Can't have everything i guess (but don't tell my ego i said that ). I'd love to get a chance to meet and get to know more of the people on the board. In fact i'm working on getting to know a few fellow west coasters, then maybe i can go from there. I already know a few east coasters ... Which reminds me i have to update the pages on who i've met and want to meet.

Hey Shredder! Love the pictures of you with Wayne and also of you with Scott! They came out awesomely!

I'm glad you guys all had so much fun!!! When you get pictures i so want to see them!

Looks like you guys had tons of fun! I wish I could go but Vegas seriously broke me...not counting I don't have anymore days off! Oh well! I still have New York in the summer hopefully! I just bought a new laptop because I'm all geeky so yeah I don't have any cash! Thanks for sharing the pics!

[Michaelangelo]

Hey all,

At one point I was asked to scan the pictures sketched for me at this event.  I want everyone to know that those pictures plus more are uploaded at

Collector Quest.

[scottw11354]

Hey,hey hey, Are these pics just now being put up? I've never seen them before.-SCOTT

[Michaelangelo]

Most of these pictures have been up for awhile the only thing I posted in this topic today was a link to the sketches I got.  Otherwise this topic has been sitting quiet for a long time

But it was such a great convention, it's one of the topics I go back to a lot for some good memories
