Woo-hoo!!!

I wonder if Inkworks is involved, seeing as they produce the cards for "Lost".

Premier Night with Alex Ross and ToyFare VIP added to Wizard World Chicago


Is three days just not enough time? Is there just too much to see and you’d love to have an earlier start? Well your wish has come true. The Wizard World Tour is happy to let fans everywhere know we are adding Premier Night to Wizard World Chicago!

Fanboys and girls will be able to get an early jump on the weekend of fun when the Wizard World Tour returns to Chicago. Wizard World Chicago will open early for a special Premier Night event from 5pm to 8pm on Thursday August 5th.

In addition to getting the first shot at all the hot exclusives, attendees will be treated to a special signing by superstar painter and fan favorite Alex Ross. Alex checks in to let us know he will not only be attending Wizard World Chicago, but will also make it out for our first ever Premier Night.

Tickets for Premier night can be purchased as part of our Premier Weekend ticket available at wizarduniverse.com.

But wait, there’s more. A new VIP package has also been added to this year’s Wizard World Chicago for you toy fans. The ToyFare Magazine VIP package is now available for the action figure and toy enthusiasts who attend this year’s show. Every ToyFare VIP will receive our super hot Exclusive Angry Zim and Goofy Gir from Palisades Toys. The ToyFare VIP package also includes a Premiere Weekend ticket, a Wizard World Tour T-shirt and other great goodies will be added.

Hi everyone,
Sincere were already talking about Chicago Wizard World, I just wanted to let you know that several official Star Wars artists are planning to be in Artists Alley or are confirmed to be there:

• Cynthia Cummens
• Joe Corroney
• Cat Staggs
• Randy Martinez

I'll update when more artists are confirmed!
-Cynthia

I think they just added Andy Hallett. To promote the new figure from Diamond Toys.

Jewel

Andy is a great guy. If you get a chance to meet him, you'll not regret it. One of my best memories of my trip to San Diego in 2003 was meeting him.

Yes you told me about it. I'm looking forward to it...

Jewel

I was just on Inkworks website and Wizard Chicago isn't on their list anymore. I'm sad now.....

Jewel

Boy, I hope that's a mistake. Inkworks is really the only reason I was going. I'll hold off getting my Preview Night ticket until we know for sure.

Well that's why I wanted to share...LOL

Jewel

REmember me Jewel when picking up spares buddy

Now Rup... You know me better than that...LOL I'll most likely get stuff from San Diego...

Jewel

Has anyone heard confirmation about Inkworks attending (or not attending)? I so enjoy them...it would be a shame to go without...

Sorry, I didn't see this and didn't realize that you were waiting for a response from me.

Although Wizard World Chicago was originally on our schedule for this year, Inkworks will not have a booth at the show (it's possible that Allan may still attend). Since the Chicagoland Entertainment Collector's Expo will be just a few weeks later, it didn't make sense for us to exhibit at both shows.

Sorry to those of you who had planned to see our booth at Wizard World Chicago. We hope we'll get to see you at the Collector's Expo (Sept 16-18) instead.

Phooey...I'll be at the Baltimore Con and the Diamond Retailers Summit that weekend. You'll be at the Retailers Summit, right?

For others going to Chicago, any chance of a meet? Maybe even just to put names with faces? I'm a retailer but I attend this show as a fan. perhaps Inkworks will help me put together some swell little promo packages to hand out?
