Brian Savage has finally returned to the TF Collectors' Club Forums (after finishing off work on the GI Joe Convention, and getting back over to BotCon stuff), and fired off a number of replies to various questions and topics pertaining to this upcoming BotCon.
* For those of of who've pre-registered, there is no charge for the Autographs (some conventions, including sci-fi ones, actually do charge for autographs, believe it or not) nor a limit to how many times you can go through the Autograph Line. However, you can bring a limit of 2 items to sign per visit. For non-registered walk-ins, it's a $5 charge with a 2-item limit.
* This is a major tease, but someone asked if there were more guests planned for BotCon, besides the ones already scheduled. All Brian said was, "You never know..."
* Prices have not been set for the non-box-set exclusive items to be sold at the convention, though they may be similar price points to last year's.
* The scheduling times for the
Battle Of The Boards, though not finalized yet, will depend in the number of groups who sign up. Off-hand, some groups will go on Friday, others on Saturday, with the finals probably on Sunday morning.
* Cut-off dates for pre-registering: September 1 if you're paying by check, and September 15 if paying by credit card.
* Official Confirmation materials will be mailed out in August. (Man, I hope their mailing services aren't slow getting to Canada, or the rest of the planet....)
* The Saturday Night Dinner this year looks to be a
buffet!
