Post Wonder-Con 2014
The tickets are for sale for those of you that are interested.

Who's all going I'll be there Friday-Sunday.

this will be my first year at Wonder-Con, but not my first convention. I've been to SDCC for the last 2 years and D-Con last year.

Post Re: Wonder-Con 2014
Wondercon - the new Anaheim based version - is actually quite a pleasant experience. Last two years haven't been exactly packed with Jp vinyl, but plenty of other stuff to see.

At SDCC any decent panel seems fraught with pencil eye gouging or mammoth super lines - but I walked straight into the Battle Star Galactica Anniversary panel last year.

My only suggestion is to bring along some food snacks you really like unless you find it fun waiting 30 minutes in line for some of the worst fast food in existence. The few eating facilities just outside the convention hall don't fair much better and all of them are super over crowded.

Just got my professional pass registered today.

Wondercon can get busy but nowhere near the chaos of sdcc. It is the most casual of cons fro me, since there aren't any set times for toy releases that I want to get.

^^^^ I went last year. I'm pretty sure that picture is at the PK/Lash lottery event. It was a nightmare as the hardcore collectors brought ALL of their family members, grandparents, parents, children, grandchildren, aunts, uncles. There was almost a riot when the custom Boss's ran out. Never again!

Nowhere near SD at the time. Nor am I that petty. Nor do I lack the confidence to tolerate (rightful) criticism.

But I digress... Why do we even bother :roll:
