Didn't see the link.

Anyone been to this before? Any idea on what the dealer tables are like? Anything other than plush for sale?

"They" are seriously charging for autographes and voice work?

Most Anime Conventions I've seen don't go that route. Interesting.

If Rob is charging for autographs and photos,it will all be for charity.

The information I was provided from the convention is that the rates are per his agent. No mention of a charity.

It's an anime convention. I would not go expecting a dealer room with much in the way of Transformers or other collectibles.
