Hoping you can make it, Sean. Would be good to get a gathering to rival 2008's.

WOW that looks awesome
Unfortunately, I missed my windows to get a ticket this year because I got sidetracked with moving stuff -- AGH
But I'm in San Diego now so 2018 should be relatively simple
(I could even host some LegionWorlders!)

Andy, I may be able to help you attend at least one of the days this year. PM me if interested.

And even when you can't get into the Convention, hang around and spend the day downtown as the entire area becomes Comic-Con. No badges required. Virtually every space is taken up with something Comic-Con-related.

Today marks Legion World's 14th Anniversary! Here's a peak at 4 of the buttons available at SDCC this year...Cosmic Boy will be given out on Thursday, Saturn Girl on Friday, Lightning Lad on Saturday and Superboy on Sunday.

Over the next few years, I'll add to the list until all 27 + Subs/Honorary are created and distributed. Collect them all!

Very cool, Nightcrawler!

I definitely miss hanging out in SD... Maybe in another 10 years...


Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water...

As usual, the table looks awesome, and I do miss hanging out with all of you. I had such a blast the last two times, though I definitely can't fit into the Star Boy costume anymore. smile

All that said, I'm kind of ashamed to admit, but I'm also coming out of severe lurker mode because I'm getting desperate -- for Wonder Twins Funko Pops. If anybody is going to be at the booth and could grab me a set, I'd be most grateful and will pay for shipping and your trouble, of course.

Where are the Legion Pops? All these obscure characters, the Legionnaires are way past due. At least we've gotten some nice Fansets pins. But that's probably a different thread. smile

The problem with Funko is that it takes an act of god to get a ticket to even think about standing in another line that constantly gets cut off to buy anything.

The rules -

  • Attendee & professional badges only.
  • One drawing per person, per day.
  • This random drawing is for a chance to get a wristband to purchase items at the Funko booth.
  • Winning a ticket does not guarantee you of any specific item at the Funko booth. Items may sell out by the time you reach the front of the line.
  • Tickets are for a specific date and time and must be redeemed for that specific session.
  • Tickets are not transferrable.
  • There will be a strict limit of one of each item per ticket.
  • You will not be able to line up at the Funko booth before your session begins.


However, it looks like FYE is also selling them. So, I'll try to snag them there.

Yeah, I saw that. I was hoping someone was doing that anyway and could grab a set while they were there. That's way too much to ask someone to do just for me.

This whole con exclusive thing has gotten way out of hand.

FYE doesn't have them online yet. I'll run up to the store at my lunch hour, but I like to have a backup in place. smile

Edit: I have call-in meetings for a couple hours when FYE opens and never have luck with these things, so I bit the bullet and went the eBay route. Hoping they'll be able to fulfill the sale. They were actually going presale for less than I was expecting, so it saves me a bunch of grief. smile

Sorry you had to go through that. There are two pop up stores in Horton Plaza downtown, so I was going to check when I have a chance.

Madness. I wonder when they start insisting on special song/ dances/ feats of endurance. If things are ridiculously exclusive, then I'll just spend my pennies on something else entirely. If I know I'm likely to miss out, why bother at all? shrug

Now, I've still got a working kidney after donating it to get the Saturn Girl button... what say I give up the second for Garth.. he always appreciated sacrifice... smile

They look great Nighty. Well done!

Every time I see a Funko display anywhere, all I can think of is, "Joan Walsh Anglund: The Fantasy Years."

Hey, I'm a 51-year-old female. Whadaya' expect? grin

Seriously, though. Thanks for all the pics.


Hey, Kids! My "Cranky and Kitschy" collage art is now viewable on DeviantArt! Drop by and tell me that I sent you. *updated often!*

Here's a look at Friday's table spread. We gave out Saturn Girl. Thursday was Cosmic Boy and tomorrow will be Lightning Lad.

Also, I snagged a cool Archie/Legion homage by Archie artist, Dan Parent.
