Yea... I saw that earlier. Unfortunately traveling to Chicago Fri,Sat,Sun so only have Thurs ticket. Not a whole lot of celebrities on Thurs. A few, but not who I was looking for. Oh well - hopefully Galaxycon, OfficialPix, or SWAU later this year or into next. |

@Nuffsaid111 I purposely avoided and Thursday signing times so I would have at least one day free from the celebrities. Aside from Sigorney Weaver all of my other signings are Fri and Sun. |

They have quite the roster again this year for artist alley. It’ll be interesting how packed it is with VIP members getting a special early queue specially for Artist Alley this year. Any word if CBCS/Beckett will be there? Nervous that CGC iced them out of NYCC like they did a few years back. |

Baltimore comicon iced out cbcs this year. I sent a scathing couple emails to them which were ignored. Marc Nathan will not be able to ignore me if I see him there this year. It's a bullshit move and I'm shocked he went for that after running this 20+ years and being hyperfocused on fairness |

NYCC, Baltimore - No CBCS Not good. I was once aggravated beyond belief that I could only attend NYCC Thursday this year due to a previous commitment, but without their fine, esteemed CBCS table there, the "only Thursday" is actually ok with me now. |

Quote:Originally Posted by Nuffsaid111 I had a busy convention schedule this year with several shows left before the year ends. So far Fan Expo Philadelphia was my one show where I dropped a bunch of books off with CBCS. Last year I saw them at several shows. While I understand that CGC got some exclusives and the shows can be costly I am hoping that they can do a couple more of my shows next year even if there were sound reasons to cut back. |

Opened the link two hours before the Funko que started today. At noon I had the little man walking along the line for my turn. Got in around 12:23PM to see all the spots for all four days already sold out. |

NYCC is limiting everything to 1. 1 funko reservation period and also for reservation signings it’s limited to 1 signing a day. | ||

I miss the good old days of first come first serve but the riots caused in the past (Peach Momoko and Gold Spawn 300) probably killed those opportunities. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by drchaos Totally forgot about the Funko. Remembered at 10am, then work took over. Although I’m not that disappointed because I know it just saved me from being frustrated like last year watching the little stick figure. I really just want to meet McFarlane and get a signature. Never have had that opportunity. But with only two days, and three hour sessions this year…I’m extremely pessimistic. |

@Drogio Quote:Originally Posted by Drogio I hear you on this. NYCC seems to be going downhill with it being more focused on celebrities and voice actors. Less and less about comics. I’ve been going since 2014 and it’ll probably be my last year. There are better cons I can easily get to from the NYC Metro like Baltimore and Terrificon. |

Also just thought about it. We could probably make a killing on tshirts with the lil stick figure man from the virtual queue. | ||

Does anyone known if there’s an app for NYCC this year? The app from last year does not appear to have any of this year’s information. I think I’m going to delete it. |

![]() So did Mcfarlane autos go up for VIP yesterday? Wondering if they’re already sold out and not to waste my time Monday. I haven’t even received my badge yet…which is very strange given we’re days away now. |

Quote:Originally Posted by Drogio I didn’t get any notification like past years that my badge was shipped out, it just arrived in my mailbox. I received it maybe a month ago. I hope they allotted some slots for non VIPs. I think they may have since they are only allowing 1 signature a day. You can’t get multiple Todd’s or Todd and someone else in a single day. I didn’t get VIP this year since they stopped grandfathering the tickets. Scalpers ruined that one. It would have been easy to say if you transfer your ticket, you don’t get the opportunity to purchase it next year ahead of anyone else. |
