Would it be ok to bring a couple items for trade like the cobra island 7 packs?
Yes

Quote from: "turner"
Would there be a hassle at the border bringing stuff in?  I've only been out of the u.s. once and that was pre 911.

I suggest you print out the INFO package (in this thread) and bring a list of what you are bringing to trade. The border is iffy at times. Nova and Lance had a problem last year - and they never had a problem before. So... that's all I can recommend.


Quote from: "turner"
I could have gone to Rhode Island this year, or the last San Diego Comic Con, but honestly I'm way more interested in what you guys are doing!

woo! Thanks!

Quote from: "martin-montreal"
Since you are opening the door... What is this year exclusive set?  :wink:  :lol:

It contains 3 figures, a comic, and 1 vehicle.... maybe 2.
And that's ALL I'm sharing right now.

Quote from: "martin-montreal"
I saw the direction from Montreal... "take the 540 South..."  ??? I will be going West, and not sure what the 540 is...

Not being from Montreal, and having only been there 4 or 5 times in my life. I used Google to tell me the best way to get to Toronto. You guys can figure it out, I'm sure - you made it to Hamilton last year after all, and this is closer for you! :-)

Quote from: "martin-montreal"
Last year there was a trading table where people could trade. I didn't see it advertised this year. Is it going to have one?

To be fair with dealers (who purchased the right to sell by getting a table) I'm assuming this year policy will be the same as previous years: Only trading allowed (no selling).[/quote]

Yes, on both counts. A schedule of the CanJoeCon events isn't fully hammered out yet. There "might" be something planned for Friday night as well. More news to come later. ;-)

Thanks, I'm so excited, I'm busting at the seems!  I hope the exclusives are 25th style, but I'm sure it will be cool.  Awesome to hear there will be a comic, reallly enjoyed the one from last year.     ;D

Here's when the hype really starts and when the board traffic heats up.  ;D
The Con figures are always AWESOME....but the Con is sooooo much more than that. I hope many new posters will be interested in more than just exclusives!

Sadly for some of us with schedules that won't allow attendance, finding out about the exclusives and drooling over what we'll only get if pay up on e-Bay, is as close as we can get to teh AWESOME.

As a first-timer, I'm looking forward to all that the con will have to offer.

Hopefully with us having a hotel option this year it will make things a bit easier for the guys lining up early in the morning. My advise is if it takes you more then a couple of hours to get there, get a room. You'll thank yourself later.

I suggest even if you're an hour away you may want a room. The day will wear you out, and if you guys are planning a drinking-joe meet afterwords, then you're gonna need to split a room anyway - so plan in advance! ;-)

Hell. Go get a case of beer and chill out in the hotel room with your toys and your fellow Joe-Pals!
