Really? He's pretty cool? Nice! I was hoping to get him to autograph my Masterpiece Grimlock action figure, glad to hear that he's cool though!

SHould i bring the kids, can i expect discounts, should i bring stuff to trade or is that "taboo", whats the attire, etc.? just trying to be a little prepared and we really want to have a good time, there's just not alot of info on it (probably cuz it's the first one) so i figured i'd ask the pros. Thanks in advance!

For a first time Convention i have to say this is not what i expected. Maybe i just expected too much, but at least a gathering of some kind where people who have the same interest could share them and even that was hard to find out side of the elevator... I really hope my timing was just horrible and tomorrow will be better.

Yeah your timing was horrid xD. Exclusive figure was exceptionally limited, only about 20 or so pieces. Parts party started at 9:30 and the room was left unlocked, it was a full room when I was in there. I bought their lil exclusive figure around 5:30 pm local time, loaded up on artwork from Dan and had a grand time.
Remember though, the convention proper doesn't start until today. Yesterday was more an "enjoy savannah" day for me xD
If you wanna find us today, look for Bane walking around with Darth Vader (shameful that I left my Vader gloves at home though xD)

LOL Believe it or not that makes me feel alot better. Soooo wait a minute, so for a parts party you just walk in the room?!? I felt like such a stalker just knocking on the door! We've been here since 3pm yesterday sooo , yeah. On a brighter side i got to meet Alex (cool guy), and took the fam to paula deans place which was awesome. Looking forward to today and we'll be looking for the glove-less Vader. Thanks again
