Question: On Wednesday "preview" night, is it just for looking, and you can't purchase anything?

I've heard that. That Wed you can walk around and check out all the goodness... but nothing to buy. That's what I heard anyway.

 

[The Josh]

You'll be able to buy and look. I know SS will let you pick up your stuff and some of the other shops will let you buy.

 

[IrishJedi]

Yeah, I've bought/picked up tons of stuff on Preview Night. In fact, last year Preview Night was by far the busiest/craziest of all of the days at SDCC.

Did you miss Comic-Con on Saturday last year? That still is the busiest day at the con (it's suffocating). Of course Preview Night last year was the busiest I had ever seen it in my 6 years of attending SDCC. Gone are the days of a nice, empty-ish walk through for preview night.

 

[IrishJedi]

Yeah, I still thought Preview Night was crazier than Saturday last year.

 

[The Josh]

Saturday was bad but everything I was told Friday was worse.

 

[The Josh]

Multiple new items added to the list.

Nice job Josh.

What's Hasbro's booth #?

 

[The Josh]

Thank ya sir. I've not seen the booth number posted anyplace.

Ah, me either. Just wanted to make sure.

 

[The Josh]

I'm missing a lot of the bigger companies booth numbers. Last year the SDCC site had them up by now and I had them all written down for how I was going to attack the show.

So I got an email from GG saying premier guild members can pre-order the exclusives through their webpage. But then in an online search, I saw this posted:

Due to unavoidable delays in production, Gentle Giant IS NOT taking pre-orders for pick ups at New York Comic-Con. All exclusive products available at the show will be allocated daily so there will be product available to attendees for all 3 days of the show.

What gives?

 

[IrishJedi]

That post you saw was for New York Comic-Con. They are taking pre-orders for SDCC, though.

Thanks. Kind of a moot point seeing as how I'm not joining it anyway to get the exclusives. I hope they will decide to sell directly.

Yup, PO for PGM members is tomorrow.
