More incentive to attend on thursday: According to their online schedule, AX is having a Robotech Marathon thursday from 10am-5:30pm in Video Room 3.

Went to Anime Expo on Saturday. First time since the Long Beach debacle. They didn't have any schedules to give out. IMO Anime Expo has lost its spark.

YOU KNOW. I DID NOT SIGN UP FOR THE CON. YET IT WAS FASTER FOR ME TO GET MY PASS SAME DAY" AND JUST TAKE ABOUT UNDER 5 MINUTES. I SAW THAT THE PRE-REGISTERED BUYERS HAD TO WAIT IN A LOOOOOOOOONG LINE.


NOT BADLY RUN EVENT. I HAVE FEW COMPLAINS OTHER THAN THE SAD PART WAS THAT THE PRINTED EVENT SCHEDULES RAN OUT. THEY SHOULD HAD A DAILY FLAYER LETTING EVERYONE OF CURRENTS EVENTS AND NEWS FROM PAST DAYS OF THE CON. WITH A DAY SCHEDULE. ON TOP OF THE REGULAR SCHEDULE MAGAZINE.

THE FLOOR SHOULD HAVE BEEN SPREAD OUT A LITTLE MORE. INSTEAD OF TRYING TO PACK EVERYONE TO ONE SIDE OF THE HALL. ARTIST ALLEY HAD JUST TO MUCH EXTRA SPACE. THIS WOULD ALLOW MORE FLOW ON THE FLOOR AND BROWSING MORE ENJOYABLE.

GREAT TO MEET OLD FRIENDS AND NEW. THE PANEL IS UP AND WAS FUN.

DINNER WAS GREAT. SAT WITH SOME OF THE CON ORGANIZERS FROM OTHER CONS INCLUDING AX BOARD MEMBERS AND VOICE ACTRESS STEPHANIE SHEH REBA WEST, RICHARD EPCARD. HAD A GOOD TIME TALKING POINTS ABOUT THE CON AND WHAT CAN BE DONE FOR NEXT YEAR. HAVE PLANS TO HELP BUT NOT FOR ROBOTECH. THIS IS SOMETHING MORE SEPARATE.


SATURDAY GIANT ROBOT RUMBLE HOSTED BY STEVE YUN WAS GREAT. MORE HARDCORE ROBOT FANS THERE AS WELL GOING OF ON EACH OTHER ABOUT MECHA AND ALL.

HANGED AROUND WITH FANS AND NEW ONES AS WELL. SORRY IF I GOT YOUR CALLS AND DID NOT ANSWER. WAS EITHER TO BUSY OR HAD PHONE OFF DURING THE CON.

HOPE YOU GUYS HAD A GREAT EXPERIENCE.


AND TO THE STAFF.. THEY WERE AWESOME. NO PROBLEMS FROM ME. ALL WERE VERY NICE.

I will agree with you that the staff we spoke to were very nice.
