Prime2099

I'm still here, but like many of you i mostly lurk. Still playing Fantasy football though as long as we get enough people!

I just got the re-activation e-mail today, looks like we need to fill 6 more spots.

I'm down for Fantasy again this year!

17th is preview night, regular con is 18th to the 21st

So i haven't seen too many topics on Comic-Con for this year, and i didn't know where else to put it. I haven't been posting on these forums in some time, but i still visit and read the posts. So who is making the trip this year? I am fortunate enough to be able to go for the second year in a row, and maybe some of you that are attending will want to meet up.

Well i guess i know which booth i'm going to first.

I remember those dudes too, granted i never post alot but i've been here since the beginning as well!

Well hopefully i'll be able to help out some next year. Since i live in California now, i'm going to go every year for as long as i am here, and next year i will go to all 4 days instead of just the last two.

Well i just got back to my house after the drive from San Diego. Unfortunately, i wasn't able to get anymore figures. I went with the intention of getting some this morning but i guess i waited too long to get them. I went to a panel and by the time i got out they were all sold out. Sorry guys...

They aren't spoken for, you are the first three to respond and ask for one. If I can get my hands on them I will send each of you a pm.

I went to the con today and was able to snag 2 Red Jinxes, The GI-Joe/Transformers HISS and the Star Wars Set. The limit on the red Jinx was 2 per customer. The variant was 1 per. By the time i got up there the variant was gone. I might try to go back tomorrow and get some more of the Jinx. My wife is with me so i can possibly get 4 more if they are in stock.

I'm actually going to be there this year too, it's my first one but i am going to be going on Saturday and Sunday only. So i figured because of that nothing will be left by the time i get there. I guess it's a good thing i didn't see anything that really stood out to me, but who knows what will happen.

I just signed up, Prime Patriots are back after two years MIA

I've missed out on this for the last few years, i'll be in this time though.

How quick do most of the exclusives sell out at the show?

So i am currently debating whether or not to unload my comics collection. I still subscribe to monthly titles, i have a subscription through a website and get shipped all that months comics in one shipment. I've been kind of putting off reading them due to either lack of interest or time. As a result, i'm probably going to cut back to a few comics that i really enjoy. But, i currently have probably around 4000 comics sitting in long boxes in my garage. I don't know if i will ever look at them again but they are kind of sentimental due to the fact i started collecting when i was around 8, so it's almost 20 years worth of comics there. Anyone else been in this situation? Just looking for some more insight.

And going back to what the original poster said, this will also be my first SDCC, does anyone got any good advice? Thanks!

I managed to get tickets for Saturday and Sunday... My wife can't get off during the week so we figured we would just go on the weekend. I don't know if i am going to miss anything good from not going the first two days. But as nevermore said, the site didn't work for the first 15 or so minutes, and when i did manage to get in i was #13000 in line. I got down to about 1000 people in front of me and that's when the four day passes sold out. So i was kind of bummed about that. But at least i got in.

Never mind i just re-read your post and understood what you were saying. I didn't even see those vehicles so now i'm going to have to add them to the list.

So was the Falcon released in 2007? Or am i just confused? lol

So i have a question. I have been out of the Star Wars loop for quite a while. Does Hasbro only release a big vehicle every two years? The Millennium Falcon was released in 2008, the AT-AT in 2010, and now the MTT this year. Were there no big toys released in 2009 and 2011? Or am i just not seeing those anywhere?

Cool thanks for the info guys, still no luck on trying to find it online i'm still looking though.

Hey guys, i need help trying to find out more info on a Batman Poster i have. I've had this thing since i was maybe 4 or 5 and i tried to look it up on the internet but i couldn't find a matching picture anywhere. i just want to see if it is a legit poster or not. It is on thick cardboard paper with a plastic metallic trim around the edges, so i don't know if you can really call it a poster or not. I'm also not sure if maybe that was done by someone who bought it later on. There is a stamp from the store it was bought at i believe on the back, it's kind of smudged and the date on it looks like it says 1983. If any of you know anything about it i would greatly appreciate it. Also, i know the pictures aren't the best but i can take more if needed.

Why don't they matter anymore? A good story is a good story, no matter what changes down the line. True they are still good stories, it's just frustrating that not all of them are in continuity anymore.

So it was known at the beginning of crisis that things were going to be rebooted?
