Registered for an Iacon package yesterday as soon as it opened up for orders. Also snagged a bagged set and custom class figure.

You're not going?

Just not in the cards this year

In other BotCon news, the non-attendee set are sold out! Hopefully you jumped at the opportunity to purchase the non-attendee Iacon package yesterday when we reported that orders had opened, because they have all been spoken for according to the latest update from FunPub.

Hello Everyone!

Non-Attending registrations now sold out. If there are any leftover attending sets we will turn them into non-attending sets (closer to the event) as we must keep those in stock for fans that want to travel to the event.

So, if you don't get a non-attending set now, we will let you know in the future when (if any) additional sets become available.

Please DO NOT register for an attending set and try to change it to a non-attending set later as we will cancel this registration and put it back in stock.

Thanks for your support!

Wow, Ginrai is nice. Looking forward to this years set. What am I saying, it's the 30th anniversary, I'm looking forward to everything. :p

Alas, I am not able to attend Botcon this year. Would anyone here be willing to be a pal and pick up a few (unrevealed) sets if I wanted them? I purchased a non-attendee, but am interested to find out what the other sets will be. If anyone is willing to pick some up , I would be willing to compensate and provide a little extra! I'm also curious as to what the free fig will be as well. Lemme know, e-mail me.

I too would appreciate a Ninja Shopper for other sets.

Shield looks cool and all but I hate seeing the car window hanging off to the left side of it.

And damn, they sold out fast. I'm guessing there weren't many non-attending packages available to start...

I'm thinking only 1/3 to 1/4 of the amount for attendees.

makes sense for them to be frugal, not like the 30th anniversary is going to bring out more people wanting to spend more money or anything

I really wanted to come as my graduation gift... it's just so expensive...

[Thalack]

For the people who do go to botcon, do you guys regularly get together at some point during botcon for say a lunch or dinner? Just wondering since I'm new here and I'll be there this year. Wouldn't mind at least saying hi.

Also, probably a bit gun shy after last year.

I've heard last year wasn't a good year in comparison to other years. Which is hard for me to gauge considering last year was my first botcon, I loved every moment of it and it's the reason why I'm going again this year and plan on trying to make it year after year. Regardless of where it is in the U.S.

[craggy]

well, I'll be going to my first Auto Assembly this year. If international travel costs weren't a factor I might have made it Botcon instead. It only costs 4 times as much for the ticket (of course, there's the toys to consider as well in the cost, but Scorpy would have made me justify it)

what happened last year?

[spiderbob007]

Can't make it to BotCon or afford to buy the set, especially without the benefit of attending BotCon, but I would love to pickup the Ginrai figure. I'm a big fan of the classics Prime mold, and this color looks really striking. Hopefully the collectors club will have it available on their website after the convention, if not I will be scanning eBay.
