There will be some planned downtime starting Wednesday, June 15th at 9am EDT. The board will be closed for approximately 12 to 24 hours while we work on migrating to a new forum software. For more information on the move, check out the Board Change Announcements thread.
So where are all the photos guys and gals? I know some of you are there taking in the glory. I always appreciate seeing pics if you snap them, of toys, booths, costumers, 'brainers, swag, eats....whatever. And if not, just tell us how it is all going. For those of us who can't make it to these Cons, we need to live precariously through you!

Re: SDCC 2015 Pics/Experience
Oh well that is a shame. Not all of us are all up over social media and whatnot. I don't have any problem with IG, or similar venues, but I come to SB for proper interaction with real people. To have conversations and learn things, beyond just instant stimulation. But if IG can take away the meaningless posts, +1s, self congratulatory and bragging pics, hypechasers, etc., from the board, then I am all for that.
(And I link this third-party site instead of instagram.com because the official site doesn't let you copy/paste/save images. Stingy assholes want you to download the app)

If you hover over the insta button when posting it explains very clearly how to post them here.

Re: SDCC 2015 Pics/Experience
Ha, didn't even realize there was an Insta button! Still, can't right-click save on Instagram.com... That annoys the bejeezus out of me.
aaaand I just checked out Instagram.com and I can't find a search bar... I just don't know anymore.
Anyway, I've derailed this enough. Back to SDCC photos.

This is the saddest SDCC thread...
IG has fucked the event experience on SB.
I don't think IG can be held wholly responsible . . . pickings seemed real slim!
SDCC has pretty much fucked itself!

Hopefully this means an even more awesome DesignerCon.

No IG here.
I've started putting together my SDCC reports. First off is my interview with Brian Flynn:

Re: SDCC 2015 Pics/Experience
Damn, those Skeletors sure do look hefty. Blister packed like that is just crying to be ripped open! I espy some classic MOTU figures too(looks like a Snakemen/Horder grouping) in the display, very cool.
EDIT: Thanks for sharing the vid Andy, nice coverage. Maybe I missed it, but what was the deal with the Alien? It looks like it could possibly be even larger than the the '79 Kenner Big Chap. But either way, to get a repro (ideally slightly different) version would be just great. I don't know why I didn't hear about this, to me this seems like it is the highlight of SDCC so far!

I think the one you mean is a vintage Alien up there for display.
