    So has anyone heard if there will be any 3p sellers setting up shop somewhere other than the galt house? I'm really wanting to build my decepticon mp army.

    I haven't seen anything. Not sure we will, either. If they do, they won't be able to set up shop in Botcon, not sure if any of them are going to take that chance.

    yeah, I know they won't be at botcon. But there are local vendors that have other places in town by my understanding. Just trying to figure out where.

    I really hope so.

    If anyone is into Lego there is a Bricks & Minifigs about 20 minutes away from the the convention center. They focus in aftermarket lego, new and used sets and minifgures. They basically a comic book store but lego.

    Hi! This will be my first rodeo, haven't signed up for a package yet (still trying to figure it all out - still pretty confused) and I notice they're all $100 cheaper for club members... can I join now, before I register for Botcon? Or is it already too late? And does it have to be a First Class membership, or will the discount still apply if I get the third class?

    1st-3rd class is in reference to the mailing service you will get as a member. Otherwise, memberships are all equal in terms of what you get.

    Looking at the page, looks like memberships are still open.

    I'll leave explaining the different packages to the vets - some can only be added to larger packages, and all that jazz.

    Thanks! It looks like Primus is the one to get. Does a "minicon" HAVE to be a family member, or can it be a friend or girlfriend?

    Minicons (in the past) can basically be anyone.

    I heard though the grape vine one of the larger dealers that sells 3rd party items that lives in that part of country was planning on having a sells after dealer at a buddy's comic book shop. Sorry I do not know all the details or if they are still going to due it

    I went this route and it cost me a total of $588 after all the dust settled for the Primus/minicon +cheapest club package. It seemed like the best way to go.

    yeah, I have done business with sidecutter in the past and have all good things to say about him. I'm planning on contacting him soon to get the rundown. I just hope that if he doesn't have what I'm hunting that someone else might have them. Thanks ikkstakk! And please keep me informed if any new information comes about!

    that would be awesome! 'Specially if it's in walking distance!
