Re: Fan Expo 2009
I'm going! I've tried to attand the last 2-3 years, but something always came up (detatched retina, divorce, etc...) but I've got my plane tickets (I'm in NB), hotel reserved, and passes purchased! I'm a horror guy, so I'm most excited about the Rue Morgue Festial of fear and Bruce Campbell! I'm also excited about seeing Tom Savini, Roger Cormon, Billy Dee Williiams and Leonard Nimoy.

Re: Fan Expo 2009
I'm going. Missed the last few as well, mostly due to Real Life, and this year I'm taking my toddler with me to piss people off in the dealer room when I barrel through with a stroller.
I go for the comic deals, new toys, and to see all the chaos of a big con. I usually go with friends and have some good fun.
Anyone organizing a meet-up from the boards?

Re: Fan Expo 2009
I'm going this year!
I had an epic time last year hoping to top it with an picture of me and Bruce Campbell.
Seriously, I could spend a lifetime (and a lifetime's worth of money) in there.
I highly recommend going to anyone on the fence about it.

Re: Fan Expo 2009
I'll be there, though the guest line up is nice I won't pay the ridiculous autograph price.

Usually about $20 regarless if you take an 8x10 or not.
Some guests charge less for your item to be signed. I always take their 8x10, might as well if their charging $20 regarless.
Tom Savini is the only guy that doesn't charge anything that i've encountered. I got Gunnar Hansen's for free one year because he was leaving and signed a bunch of stuff for fans on his way out.
Linda Blair was the most expensive I've run into! $20 bucks for an Autograph and another $25 to get a photo with her !
Cheers!

Re: Fan Expo 2009
my buddy last year paid up to $40 for some autograps, most of those guys will sign multiple items though.
...the $40 may have included a picture too...
I just want a picture of me with Bruce Campbell and Billy Dee Williams. I wonder how much that will run me?
