NYCC '16

looks like theyre trying to stop scalping with some new steps you have to go through to buy your tickets, this year.

You now have to fill out a Fan Verification form.

Deadline is June 13th and you must do it to get an email link to purchase tickets. And everyone you buy a ticket for must have an ID for you to enter, if youre buying for multiple people.

It makes sense to not sell at stores anymore, it was always a clusterfuck.

More hoops to jump through to evade the scalpers.

I filled out the form.

There's not much to it. The standard name/address/email/phone, plus what you're looking forward to survey type questions. I figured it would've been longer based on the description.

Who knows!

hopefully this'll make the actual ticket ordering process not take 30+ min this year... :roll:

Once again, I'm passing on it due to the fact that NYCC is HUUUUGE. ......and I hate large crowds so much.

Still patiently waiting for someone to organize a toy show on the east coast.

Hopefully, it will streamline the process Charlie. HOPEFULLY. I guess we'll have to wait and see.
