I'm really surprised no one has started a conversation about this convention yet. While it's not attached to any of the Wizard shows or any of the International cons, it's a FANTASTIC show.

I was first introduced to a few card collectors there and have attended every years since 2007. It's my "home" convention and where I first appeared at a show before getting picked up to work on anything.

Many sketch card artists will be there. Included in this list are Axebone, Bukshot, and yours truly Smile And we just so happen to be sitting in the same row in the white section Smile

Lots of other artists can be found! Come say hi. There is no limit to attendees and it's in a great city. For anyone who has never been, there are tons of hotels RIGHT near the Orange County Convention Center ( many under 100 - 75 dollars a night ) and of course, it being Orlando, there are tons of things to do after the convention.

see MegaConvention.com for more info and a regularly updated list of guests and attendees Smile

I have been going to this convention since the very first one, It has gotten better each year. If you are in the southeast area when it happens by all means find a way to attend you will not be disa ppointed. Funny thing RhiburgerNoCheese is I usually start this line about the convention, but I have been a little absent on the boards lately.

Hey Wolfie, I am going is there something you are looking for.

Hiya Guys.

While I appreciate the emails inquiring about the promo, it would speed things along a little bit if you sent the address you want the card to go to IN your request email.

I will post when I am out and can't send anymore Smile

Thanks!

This report is a little late but I just don't spend a lot of time on the computer anymore.
Last year I picked up lots of cards to fill in spaces in my collection and this year I spent all my money on artist alley!
I had a great time talking to the artists like Rhi, Sara Richard and several others like the husband and wife team of Comfort Love and Adam Withers.
I picked up a few things that I really enjoy. Said Hi to Dave of FYI. I went on Saturday this year and it was packed. I loved the Lego display as well.
I got a Phoenix commission from Sara Richard, two treasure chest& booty sketches by MAX and Javier (loved the base set as well some great images by Rhi, Soni and Charles Hall), Dungeon Dolls promo by Rhiannon Owens (if it is like treasure chests and booty it should be good), a Storm commission by comfort love and Wolverine by Adam Withers, Harley Quinn by Talon, two larger Storms by Rich B, Wolvie & Spidey by House of Doodles and painted Wolvie by MO whose name I have forgotten. Also the Lara Croft artist did not sign their card so I can’t remember them either.
So I thought I'd share them with you all.
