[Jango-Joe1]

Show was ok. I bought Elizabeth the Star Wars Collectors Book and I bought a Shazam figure.

Thanks Nick for taking us to the Half Priced Book stores. We got the soundtrack to Empire on vinyl. we also got some books and DVD's

[ObiWanFTW]

well the show was the best free show I have ever been to.There was more stuff there than in some of Ben's previous april cons in Richardson.I could have spent ALOT of money in there but I have other things to buy right now.

[Amidala Starkiller]

I had a pretty good time too.

[ObiWanFTW]

some late comments here,seems there were several shoving incidents at this con according to their forums.Saying there was lack of room.There are always some bad apples in the group and I am not one of them thank goodness.The april 29 show will be in the plano center!

[DarthMaximus]

Yeh, it did seem a little hard to get around at times. People looking at stuff on both sides of the aisles and a line of people trying to make their way between them. Just gotta deal with it I guess...

[Amidala Starkiller]

Yeah it was about what I expected. Plus the Richardson Civic Center being so small. But I still had fun.

[Unknownbountyhunter]

for free it was cool. The dealer room is WAAY to small and the prices weren't the best but that's not just this con. all in all it was good. I wasn't really looking for much though I'm buying alot of UFC, and marvel figures right now anyway
