So it appears that next year's SDCC preview night is already sold out. Ridiculous.

WTF? Already?
Weird how they have 4-Day w/ and w/o Preview Night.
Guess Preview Night isn't "free" anymore?

WTF!!!

It's also $25 more (w/o preview night)?!

May skip it altogether next year for a Japan trip!

I'm pissed. How could they still offer the four day and not offer preview night with it? :x

this is probably why moving the con to Las Vegas at some point will make sense...there's way too many fucking people who want to go and as big as the SDCC location is, they need more space.

so crazy they go so early.

I finally wised up and bought my 2010 4 day passes (with preview night) on the last day of this year's Con. I got screwed out of '09's full 4 day pass by waiting too long in '08 and didn't want that to happen again.

Preview Night has become just as packed as the other nights, they might as well just sell it as a separate day and be done with it. Or charge for a full Weds day pass and then you can pay to help with the booth set-ups. :)

They were the same price . . . just limited availability w/preview night. Possibly to avoid it getting as crazy busy as it was this year!

Fuck, really? I was waiting for a god damned email from the mailing list just to know when tix would go on sale, I haven't been in years. i kinda don't even fucking wanna go now. 4 years waiting, I can finally afford to go and now no preview? Lame shit.

I missed out on preview night this year and went anyway. The Kaiju Fiends Dinner made up for what I missed at the preview in spades and some people were kind enough to pick up a few things for me at the preview. Since I don't have a ticket for preview night in 2010, If the dinner/party happens again I'll be there.

I can only afford to go to SDCC or NYCC. I'm not close enough buds with anyone here to ask for favors for preview night help, I'd feel bad asking anyway. NYCC seems better @ the moment w/Pus being there. That & I've been waiting 4 years it just dampens it

I may just fly out for the preview diner Joe throws together to hang out with everyone. Thats what I'm really concerned about.

Lurker , is that true , no Pus at SDCC but he will be at NYCC ? AWESOME !

Post subject:  Re: SDCC 2010 - WTF?

I also heard no Pus at SDCC 2010.

Rich, that may be the best move. Maybe even get a 1 day pass. I might be able to swing both SDCC and NYCC that way....maybe.

I mean I would like to attend, but year after year of missing it, what I really enjoy seeing are the pics of the parties that take place either before or after. I would love to hang out with members more than anything. And with my new Job I doubt I will be able to take that much time off anyways.

As well Pus being at the NYCC will give me time to save up some cash :)

Last year Preview night was a bust for me...5 minutes after doors opened I was in the Gargamel line and all the good stuff was gone or in the process of being gone. :cry:

I wonder if folks with the 4 day pass (no preview night) will still be able to get their badges on Wednesday?

Kev, I hope for the both of us the exchange rate starts to get a little better. I missed going to Japan this year because of it and it is only getting worse.

Nope. I just checked. Badge pick up for 4 day w/o preview night is Thursday, July 22nd. Such a raw deal.

Next time we'll register on the last day of the con to avoid this.

Ha ha - that's just what I said to my wife.
I don't really have much desire to go until they move it to a better (read: bigger) venue; when I went in '08 it was already pretty much a clusterfuck. Waiting in line for 5+ hours (or more) to get into a panel just feels like a waste of time and money to me. The toy aspect is great, but there's not enough stuff I'm into nowadays to justify airfare, hotel etc.

SDCC 2010 tickets went on sale 2-3 weeks ago...insane that preview night sold out already.
I snagged the 4 day passes (without preview) for me and my son already because this goddamn madness will spread like wildfire.

Glad you had fun.
We'll have to see about 2010.

Aw man, if you're flying out, will definitely try putting together something again.
