would love to go, since its fairly close.. not sure if ill have the cash to go though.

Thanks Ryan for sharing this and Optimus Prime, pretty much filled you in on the exclusive Overlord. But there's to be a few more Transformer exclusives to be there as well. Mega Toy Fan plans to have an exclusive piece for sell during the Con and for those that pre-register and buy their tickets ahead of time, they'll be entered in for another exclusive Transformer-related item that will only be at Retro Con.

Retro Con Pre-registrant Door Prize!

We are having a special raffle drawing that will be held ONLY for pre-registrants of the show! The prize will be a Transformers yarn doll created by show organizer Tony. The character will be Autobot engineer Wheeljack. He stands 16″ tall and is created from craft yarn woven into a plastic canvas skeleton (with everything hot-glued together). These are very time-consuming to make, so Tony does not create them often. Now is your chance to own a truly unique Transformers item!!

The drawing will be held early in the day, probably around 10 or 11am, and any losing tickets from pre-registrant drawing will go back into the raffle pool for the regular door prizes! Go to the “Buy Tickets” tab at the top of the retrocons.com page to pre-register. Good luck!!

Buy Tickets In Advancehttp://retrocons.com/purchase-retro-con-tickets/

Art contest and costume info to be posted soon!

How do the door prizes work? Are they just awarded randomly? Are there any qualifications, like do you have to pre-purchase tickets to be eligible? Or do you have to buy raffle tickets or something like that? Do you have to be there by a certain time?

If you buy your ticket ahead of time, you'll receive three tickets one that will be for a pre-register door prize and then two extra tickets for door prizes through out the day. Then if your ticket's not pulled for the pre-register door prize, your third ticket will be thrown into the lot with the other two, which will up your chances for the big goodies, like the Bruticus Set! It's basically all random though and no one will have more then three tickets.


If you buy at the door, you'll only receive two tickets and all dealers will receive a door prize ticket as well.

Tony and I sold five more tables for Retro Con yesterday! With over 70 percent of our tables sold and if all goes well... After promoting at Baltimore Comic Con and then New York Comic Con..maybe we should look into getting a few more tables? Fill that convention center up!

Don't forget, tomorrow is the last day you can pre-buy your tickets for the show! This makes you eligible for exclusive door prizes and helps you get through the line quicker! But if you can't swing it, no problem, you can still pay at the door too.

Custom Optimus Prime to be given as a Retro Con Door Prize!

As if we didn’t have enough in cool door prizes.. Retro Con has yet another to offer! Donated by Keith Smith!

-----

Ticket price at the door will be $14.00 dollars. This includes two door prize raffle tickets. Kids 12 and under get in for free when accompanied by an adult, but will not receive raffle tickets.

We can only accept cash at this time, but the facility has two ATMs if needed.

For those staying at the Hilton Garden Inn Valley Forge/Oaks, I'd like to have a fan meet up in the lobby Saturday evening around 7:30.. I'm working on a voice actors project and I'd like to get as many fans involved as possible..Lets show these voice talents how much we love them!

One last blast at my friends! Retro Con is this weekend and for those can make it, I look forward to seeing ya!

Don't forget the Art Contest and Costume contest!!! You could win cool prizes and Retro Cash!

For those new to the area here's the GPS Info:

As the time for the show draws near, we wanted to give everyone a heads-up. We’ve been told that the Station Avenue address for the expo center doesn’t work with some GPS units/mobile apps. If this is the case with you, the expo center site recommends you use this address…

1601 Egypt Road Phoenixville, PA 19460 (Upper Providence Township)

It’s for the deli/pizzeria down the road. From there look for the signs for the expo center.

If anyone else is going to come to the show, stop by and see me at the Bull Market Toys booth! I will be selling a bunch of classics, henkei, universe, generations etc, along with other great stuff!

We had a great show for our first time out with over 625+ in convention attendees, that's not including the guests or dealers!

So we're for sure planning another next year.. But I did have to say to all of our friends. We can't thank you enough..for all your support and help throughout this whole ordeal. You helped make this a great show! Hopefully it'll only get better!
