Tickets are $60 and this is right in my hometown. I'm gonna try to go to this event with a friend. I think his work schedule is during those days however, and I don't feel like attending alone. I'll keep you posted.

Well my friend is free on Saturdays but the $60 price was enough for him to back out. He's into these conventions, its just the next week he will be going out of state to another comic con type event with his girlfriend.

Hopefully I can find someone to go with, I don't feel like going alone. It's just not fun that way.

This is an interesting concept/event.  I wonder if Hasbro is feeling some heat from drops in sales and are trying to push the brand?  Either way, I’d love to see how it goes.

I'm friends on Facebook with a fellow collector/reviewer The Budget Jedi. He lives a state over from me and he was thinking of going. He just has to check with his son. If so we will be meeting up and going together. Maybe we can do a joint review/video.

That sounds great Dave. If you want to do a bit of work for ISY, I might be able to get you into a few more things. I am not totally sure yet, but will check if you are interested.

And on another note I am hearing rumors that the SDCC Exclusives will be available at HASCON.

I've talked with Tamer and I will be attending, representing the website. I can only go Friday and Saturday as I work Sundays.

Now is this the same as SDCC where members will submit in questions and I bring them with me? How will I know when to interview?

Dave, first off, thanks for representing us there for a couple of days. It really seems like Hasbro is really playing this HASCON up this year.

Two, I will let you know if they are doing a Q and A. If they are then yes, we will let members submit questions in the General Questions to Hasbro Thread (like SDCC). I will organize all that though, you just have to go have fun!

Alright sounds good. Not a problem with representing the website, willing to help when I can!  :)

I was looking at our schedule at work for Sept. 10th. We have to go through this "work-force management" to see if we can get days off approved. They are in charge of scheduling the amount of people on in a day. For Sept. 10th, the last day of the con, on our schedule said there was a "good" chance of getting the day off. I tried putting in a request and it was denied. I don't get it. I tried.  :-\

Also, since I will be there representing the website, are there any business-type cards I can use to hand out while I'm there?
