As we do every year, we are once again at the SAN DIEGO
COMICON - attending the largest comic convention in the
United States. And while we do go there to sell older
comics we also attend to pick up SPECIAL ORDER request for
our customers, restock our website and stores, stand in long
painful lines to TRY and get exclusive figures customers
have requested. Plus we try and visit as many vendors
to pick up exclusive comic books and items for the shops.
We snapped a few photos yesterday (Wednesday July 20th) to
give you an idea of what the show is shaping up to look like
as well as show you some pictures of some neat products and
items on display. Take a look below -
Some sweet looking keychains
from Mezitz -pefect for use with your man bag.
Mezitz also had a SAN DIEGO EXCLUSIVE WONDER WOMAN key chain
that we picked up for all the stores - they'll be in stock
late next week!
One of the most
crowded booths at the show - the MARVEL booth is going for a
SHIELD/AVENGERS theme this year.
Entrance to the DC booth before the show opens to the public
20" tall SENTINEL figure - now carded on his own!
Some sweet new MARVEL LEGENDS 6" figures from Hasbro
This show exclusive THOR PACKAGING is in the form of THOR's
hammer. Naturally DeKalb manager RICK is going to get
one - we just hope we can pick up more than one of these!
Another SDCC exclusive figure - SWAMP-THING with awesome
packaging from Mattel
I'm not even a STAR
WARS fan and I want this exclusive - the packaging is a
gigantic DEATH STAR and the carded figures all say REVENGE
of the JEDI. One of the most in demand SDCC exclusives
It's MARVEL PLUSH with freaky
gigantic heads to give you nightmares.
Preview
night just started, the 'normal' people are now pouring in
and we're heading back to our booth - if you're at the show
stop by and say HI!
Thanks to roving Graham Crackers Comics reporter ANDY COLE
for these photos and his incredible patience waiting in line
to pick up some of this product!
