    Do any members of the board ever attend G-Fest in Chicago? I have been meaning to check it out for the last few years but something always pops up at the last minute.

    G-Fest is a large godzilla festival held in chicago (july?). There is a little of everything for the diehard godzilla fan. I really want to check out the dealer room, Super7 has done exclusives for the show in the past.

    I went last year. It's a weekend convention dedicated to Godzilla, daikaiju and Toho movies. It's great to see Toho movies on a big screen in a nice old time big theater. Last year the movies were H-Men, G vs. Hedorah and G Final Wars. The last couple of years about 1400 people have been in attendance. The people are very nice, and the dealers room is loaded with kaiju for sale. I believe it will be July 7-9, 2006. Let me know if you plan to come and we can meet up.
