i would love to go since i'm in central jersey and was going to but since there is a local show in a couple weeks and Wizard World Philly at the end of may I ussually drop a few grand at that so I will save some $$$.

I expect a CagCast NY comic con update Wombat since I'm not going, I mean like a good 30 min worth please not a sentence or 2 :)

I'm heading out Sunday because I have work on Saturday. My one and only time to see the Wombat in action!

Ah well. I'm just excited about grabbing some swag and comics. Not too keen on having to lug it all home tho.

There wasn't a lot of free swag, but if there was, it'd be easy to carry since Tokyopop gave out these huge bags for carrying stuff. Besides that, they were giving out issues of their quarterly manga magazine, which previews the latest manga titles.

I'm not a big fan of comics or toys, but they were selling just about everything you could imagine. Toys, posters, action figures, books, etc. If you're going on Sunday, try to go late if you can since you're likely to get discounts. Exhibitors will give discounts if that means they don't have to pack up all their items.

That's one of the upsides to going on Sundays, although the downside is, obviously, you get last pickings at stuff. If any one else went Friday or today, post up any suggestions or tips so I can make the most of of my trip Sunday. Thanks!
