Well, looks like I'm going on the Friday then. Anyone know how much Stan Lee usually charges for an autograph? I don't like paying but he's one of the few I would actually appreciate.

[Window]

Wow, ticket prices went up over last year.

And fewer big names....not sure if I want to go this year.

So far all guest autograph and photo op prices are listed as "TBA".

Admission prices are exactly the same as last year. It went up from 2 years ago due to using both North and South Buildings.

It's still over 2 months away, I'm sure a few more guests will be announced....unless they have them, but just not updated their website.

I think I skipped last year - they ended up selling out on Saturday if I remember correctly so that may be why.

Still not entirely sure as this years line-up so far is lacking. Hell even Amanda Tapping who used to be a regular isn't there.

Was going on Sunday, but no job and no car anymore, I'm not going to make the trip. I actually had to beg someone to let us use their car for TFCON.

Good riddence I say! The North Building was probably the only part of the Con that wasn't completely crowded with people as I remembered it.

He's been going up in price every year, last year he was 60, year before that 40.

I really regret not getting him when he was 40 *sigh*

Also, for the Transformers fans, Steve Blum whom voiced Starscream in Prime as well as being in the High Moon games is gonna be there

[TMIIWonkoNemises]

Looks like I need to pre-reg to get pass the Whovians and get an autograph collected from Steve Blum. Can't wait for more VA announcements.

[Knockout]

I wonder when we are going to get Steve Blum for TFCON. :/

[UltraPrimal]

I bet more than half those guests will have cancelled by the time the show actually comes around.

Also, not surprised the Sports section got axed. It last, what, 1 year? You could have asked ANYBODY, literally anybody, if that was good idea and they would say no. "One of these things is not like the other. One of these things is not quite the same!" They had to be retarded to think that a bunch of video game, sci-fi, anime, comic book, and horror geeks would be at all interested in meeting former Sportball Superstar Hall of Famer Antonio Jose Maria Rodriguez-Williams Jr.
