The grab bag includes a sheet of Mars Attacks temporary tattoos from the 1990s and a Mars Attacks button, also from the 1990s. See them both below. Random grab bags will also contain the alien eraser shown below.

BatmanGreat time at the show today, picked up a lot of items for my collection, got two Kate Bradley sketches from Ed Webb (Mars Attacks and a Contemporary Pinups),an awesome Emma Frost Marvel Beginnings AP from Sara Richard, a beautiful Zatanna sketch from Laura Inglis, a Frankenstein Film card (down to 2 to finish the set), A Deadworld set from Tom Breyer at Breygent which had some cool hits, 2 boxes of Kree Skrull War from Dave Moulder, a couple of nice sketches for $15 each (Warlord of Mars and Kree Skrull Wars), a nice Spook Show Werewolf sketch from artist Chrissy Spallone from Monsterwax, a Mars Attacks book from NSU, and finally a Mars Attacks hobby box for the group opening tonight. I got so many bargains that I still even have some cash for tomorrow! Oh, I forgot to mention, I also got a boatload of promos as well!
I skipped the casino trip tonight to get some rest before going to Red Robin but all I did was sort cards and plan my attack for tomorrow. I guess time does fly when you are having fun!

Don NortonLooks like you made quite a haul Bob, have a great time and post some pics of your sketches if you a get a chance.

rns91294The show was amazing. I actually won the Mars Attacks Zina Saunders VOTE Giclée Art Print. The thing is amazing in person. The picture on the shows website does not do it justice. Can't wait to get it framed!
It was great seeing everyone again! We'll do it again in 6 months! LOL

H_ToserA BIG thanks to Tom and Breygent Marketing for giving folks who went to Red Robin tonight this exclusive Red Robin World of Fantasy promo. The back even says "Red Robin". The card is limited to 100 and features art by Jim Kyle.

BatmanBreaking news from the show, those collectors who attended the Red Robin gathering this evening had the good fortune of obtaining the "Worlds of Fantasy" Jim Kyle promo from Breygent Marketing. Limited to 100 cards in total, the Red Robin gathering has become a tradition over the past few years and it's a great tme to get together and talk about cards, work, family, or whatever else you want to, the important thing is get out amongst our community of collectors, manufacturers, dealers, artists, magazine executives, etc. and make this hobby more than just about the cards. A big thanks to Tom and all the good folks from Breygent for supporting all of us who make this a regular part of the weekend here in Allentown.
