Great move, Propergrounds.  I myself am a big Tiger Sting fan.  It was my favorite Joe vehicle when I was a kid, made even more special by the fact that my grandma bought it for me.  It rolled many a Joe-sized mile over the floors in her den.  You probably made that kid's whole convention.

There's nothing like making a kid's day.  One of my customers at my previous store had a little boy who he brought in with him one day, who really liked my Mustang.  I put him in it, made damn sure it was out of gear and the park brake was on, and held down the clutch so he could start it up.  The smile on his face and the way his eyes got so big absolutely made my day.

Mine was this:



That's Turners son, exhausted from all the toys to pick from! LOL

He just laid down and passed out Friday night in the dealer room.
When I met him, all he said was "I want a timbit!".  :lol:

Thanks Mike!    I showed the wife and me and my son enjoyed that!  I remember him saying that!

i love the fact that there were more kids involved in the con this year than before...the next generation of joe fans and collectors...outstanding!

I agree.My wife was with me and she had some great ideas for next years con. to make it more appealing for kids,and for grownups to bring thier kids.She is going to send The Mike a suggestion or 2.and plans to volunteer her time...

I really enjoyed just sitting back and listening to Larry Hama deconstruct comic storytelling and explain his methodology.

I also liked seeing Gieselle, who had saved her money while the boys had spent all theirs, find a great a deal and scoop up FIVE carded 25th figures for $20.

It was great to see all the kids out this year.  I hope the release of Rise of Cobra and Shout Factory's release of the cartoons have helped build that new younger fan base.  It was fun watching the kids in line get excited about seeing Cobra Commander, Destro and Snake Eyes come out.  My kids were on holiday so they couldn't come this year, but next year will be coming fast enough.

I have a few. Meeting the people from the boards I've known for years. Seeing Night Force Cynic's Alley Viper shirt. Meeting the guy who won last year's Speed Painting Contest who told me he has the vehicle prize I donated proudly on display.

My wife's favorite moment was Joe or Joke arm wrestling with Brandon Frasier's stunt double aka Scramble.

It's hard to tell what was my favourite moment.  Everything was great.  Martin-montreal and 5h4rk help me to put many faces on user names.  Thanks guys.
Just walking through the dealers tables was awesome.  I makes some great deals. 
I liked all panels, especially Zach Hoffman Q&A.  He's a funny guy.

It was also great to see all kids opening and playing with Joes.  My son is too young (less than 3 years old) to play with figures but he realy like vehicles.  In two years, he should be able to play with figures and have fun like i did so.
So, my favourite moment was when i bought a slugger for my son.  I told him to choose one vehicle on ''gsmiley'' table and he choose a Canadian Slugger.  He had great time at the hotel with his Slugger!
