Awesome pictures all! Love the pics with Evil-Lynn. She truly did not disappoint. Some great costumes this year too! Everyone at work always asks about the costumes! LOL.

I tried to take pics on my iPhone but that was a nightmare, frankly, so forgive their terrible quality. So not much in the way of pics, but I'll post a few.

I had an amazing time. It was so great to see the people I met last year again (and actually have some time to hang out with them) and meet a load of new people too. I actually went to fewer panels this year than last, because I wanted a little more chill time to hang out and and browse. But there were so many great panels to choose from, I did regret skipping a few to be sure. I thought the programming overall was really great.

Of the panels I did go to, my two favorite were probably the Anthony Delongis weapons demo (and it's sequel on the con floor) and the Power Tour. The stories from the tour were great, and it was really moving at points too.

I wish I'd gone to the New Adventures panel, but I kind of wanted to get in and go for a few limited items on the sale floor. I know packed schedules make it difficult, but it might be nice to have a panel-free first hour.

Seeing (and getting to hold!) the original protos for Eldor and a cast of the original He-man sculpt was cool. I got to see the proto for Darius, Rokkon, an early run of Tytus and a few other items, which were very cool for a guy like me who really doesn't have the money to buy that sort of thing.

I didn't buy a ton, but I loved everything I got. I got the Dave Wilkins prints (1 of 100 for both, that was the first place I went) and James Eatock's Cartoon Guide. I bought a TON of the Spy Monkey Weaponeers of Monkaa. And I still want more.

I, of course, won the He-man body pillow. He will sit proudly in my bedroom, I guess. What does one do with a body pillow with He-man on it?!?!

Finally, I was lucky enough to win (after sadly losing out on Bearshow's awesome art) Joe Amato's awesome custom of the Manta Rider and the Manta Raider. I took a few pics to share. I will definitely treasure it as a part of my collection.

Can't wait until next year! I am definitely staying the night on Sunday though, next year. Heading back that night meant I was robbed of some hanging out time, and I met some people right at the last minute! But I can't wait to see everyone again.

Sssssssuuuuuuurrrrrreeee, Doc P. Blame it on the alcohol. But you sure do look alot like Stunning Steve Austin in that thing.

The Best is the Two-up one of a kind Buzz Off bust from the 4-Horseman and the Signed Newspaper Strip Storyline Ninjor Strikes by Chris Webor. Also love the Power Tour Memorabilia and Jack and Leslie's signatures!

Very very nice, looks like what they made intended for the 4th Micro-Bust Wave that never saw light of day.

Would be rad to see some more pics of ol' Buzzy, especially with some of the other NECA busts if you've got 'em!!!

Nice Quake pic! That's a better look than I got in real life and I was standing right next to you! LOL.
I would love to see the 4H tackle him. The proto really shows off how nice the sculpt is. Some really cool details that get a bit lost on the actual figure.

[Slave2Evil_Lyn]

Awesome Horde print! Didn't see those, is that one of Emiliano's?

Yes this is one of Emiliano's new Filmation prints.
He also had a Great Rebellion one but was sold out because I forgot to pre-order it.
But I love this Horde print, it has all the great Filmation characters.

I really liked that quakke proto ..wonder how much Ed would have taken? No connection with NA but if the actual figures were bulkier like this guy I might have collected them.

I was busy running my store all weekend and missed all the panels (Thank god for people recording!!)

I did manage to get some neat things though in the time I did venture away from the store

The Weaponeers of Monkaa, Art Prints from Emiliano (there are multiple ones in the protector), Busta Toons MOTU Book (autographed by James), some CD soundtracks (Clue, ThunderCats 2012, MOTU 87 Film Anniversay Edition) from La La Records



And I had one of my STGCC Red Lion-O's signed by the man himself Larry Kenney

[Firefly]

I didn't realize La La Land Records did a Thundercats CD. Did La La Land Records have their own booth? Rumor has it they may be bringing out a Filmation CD set soon...

I dig the Manta Rider and the Manta Raider. Nice piece.

Yes they had their own area, they brought a bunch of different CDs with them like Batman the Animated Series soundtracks and movie soundtracks like Clue.

My haul and some other pics. I had such an amazing time this year, got to meet some people in person this year and just spent the whole weekend with a smile on my face. Rudy and Joe's Manta Raider is amazing, I got the last one that was on sell at the show, not very many happy people behind me in line lol. Rudy and his wife were just as nice and real as you can get. I also got to hold the Eldor Prototype figure just before i left for the air port.

Finally got me an unofficial filmation MOTU guide, got some 4HM figs, tons of great prints, the new SMC toy line which is freaking great, and some other stuff I am sure I am forgetting lol.

The weekend flew by and I was sad to see it end, oh and Anthony De Longis (Blade) was so great, I could have spent hours listening to him and watching all of his weapon displays. Meeting him and talking to him turned out to be one of my biggest highlights of the weekend.

I could go on and on, but ill stop lol


My loots

me and Eldor getting to know each other

Manta Raider by Joe Amaro based on Rudy Obrero's painting (BG Teela looks pretty good on it)

Pixel Dan took a pic of me and a new friend lol

[JonWes]

My god I look creepy in that picture! Lol. What is that expression?!? I promise I am not creepy looking in real life... I hope.

But you and Paul (the actual subjects of said photo) look good.

Wow! It really looks like everyone had a great time!

What were the Dave Wilkins prints? I'm not familiar with that artist...

All three of those prints that were given out to advance ticket holders - Thundercats, She-Ra and He-man - are really awesome! And it's nice to see Emiliano getting some more art out there too!

[KUZEH]
