So sad. I asked how to get that promo several times yesterday. Never heard any talk of a Red Robin event! Where was this information available! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH, now I have to chase it down! Did anyone get an extra?
You also did not come to the gathering this morning. As Hammer said the Red Robin event was mentioned a number of times. Why did you not find one of us? Harris is easy to find as he is always in the area of the NSU table. It's too bad we have a good time and would have liked to meet you.

Speaking of Spook Show, I am now seeing Philly Monsterwax 20th Anniversary promos on Ebay. As I am a vintage Halloween freak, I have to get me one of these!

Nice haul Batman. Love the Spook Show sketch and nice snag on the Frankenstein film card. Those are not easy to find.

Thank you very much Lark. That's very nice of you to say.
I really enjoyed meeting you as well. Thank you for coming to the show and hope to see you again at the show. Best of luck with your art.

Ted Dastick Jr.I had a great time at the show! Everybody had great things to say about my promo, I'm very grateful that it was so well-received.
The whole weekend went by very fast, I didn't get to draw as much as I had planned because I was usually engaged in some very deep conversations about everything from Mars Attacks to Bettie Page to ripping out eyeballs (not necessarily in that order
).
It was great to meet a lot of collectors, manufacturers and fellow artists who I've never met before (I'm not going to name individual names because I'm sure I'll forget someone
). This is one of the best things about the Philly show, and one of the reasons I still attend when I'm not a guest.
The pumpkin decorating contest was fun. I told Cliff I liked a challenge, so he brought me the ugliest pumpkin I'd ever seen! I was expecting something with an odd shape, this thing had the measles! But I made the best of it... I'm sure Harris or Cliff will be posting pics soon.
I bought a box of TrueBlood from Tony (Triangle). He opened the case and said "pick the one you want." Upon closer inspection there was an Archive Box in the case! I didn't hold Tony to his offer.
Thanks to everybody who stopped by my table, to the manufacturers for the awesome promos, and to the Tosers for inviting me back. Already looking forward to the next one.

Flag City CollectiblesI loved this show, and was a great time! See NSU talk post for troubles I had making it to the talk. Next time should be cake walk since I know the area now, this was my first trip there and was successful.
I will never miss the Red Robin event as long as I can attend the show again, mark my words
The weekend went way to fast!
I have to say, I was most impressed by Tom Breyer (Breygent) and his group! They did a great job of not only making wonderful promos available but also making themselves available to talk with people that attended! They had a nice array of products to purchase as well.
It was good to be able to trade promos at the cryptozoic table and my wife won a prize from Rittenhouse.
I love putting faces with names and can't wait to see some pics from the show shared! Now I know who some of you folks are

JessicaI had an awesome time at the show on Sunday. Unfortunately I slept in late (because I had a huge day on Saturday at another event) and didn't get there until about 3:00. But I did get some cool Xena cards.
I got the dual Xena/Hercules autograph card, which was the last autograph card that I needed, I got this card at a very good price, thanks to Tony (I think that's his name!)
I also got some other smaller Xena cards that I needed. I found a few that I wanted/needed but ran out of money, sigh. I'll have to remember to bring more next show.
I was disappointed that I couldn't find any of the guild cards (loose, not boxes). Maybe I didn't go to the right tables?
It was great seeing everyone! Great to see Tom aka TWS again!!!! Great to talk with Bev and Byrna, Always love to talk with fellow Xenites! Unfortunately I missed Harris and didn't see Jane
Maybe next show.
I am so happy I was able to make this show. It almost didn't happen.
Thanks to the Tosers for a great show!!

WandringRebelIt was great chatting with everyone during the weekend. I'm still sorting through all the stuff I came home with. Thanks to all the dealers, manufacturers, artists, NSU crew and attendees for making it another great show. I can't wait until May!

I did see you Jessica late in the day on Sunday and started to make my way to you to say hi and must have gotten distracted. Glad to hear you had a good time. I'll see you next time for sure!
