I know some Card Talkers are attending. There's a pretty good amount of card artists there (myself included ): Scott Blair Michael "Locoduck" Duron Jerry Gaylord "The Franchize" Rusty Gilligan Kate Glasheen Danielle Gransaull Chadwick Haverland Tom Hodges Laura Inglis Brian Kong Mark Pingitore Sara Richard Chrissie Zullo ...and I'm sure I missed someone.
I was checking the programming schedule and saw this:
FRIDAY 4:00 – 4:45PM TOPPS: SCI-FI RULES IN 2013 Join Topps’ staff as they explore the hottest sci-fi sets from the trading card giant. You’ll hear about the rich history of Topps and Science Fiction - from Mars Attacks to Star Wars - as well as what to expect in 2013, including two brand new products unveiled here for the first time! (ROOM 111)
I don't see a booth for Topps, but if they're doing a panel I have to imagine they'll be set up somewhere. Wonder if they're planning any con exclusives?

I added a couple people to your list.
258 Authentic will also be there. It would be cool if Topps had a booth with convention exclusives.

Just a panel, Ted. We'll have a Mars Attacks promo for every attendee of the panel-- perhaps a special variant of the NSU promo.

We'll be announcing TWO new sets, btw, and showing lots of behind-the-scenes art and imagery from Mars Attacks and Star Wars.
Believe me when I say the two announcements will surprise and excite people in a big way.

Naturally this has to be on Friday. The least attended day of the show and a day I am not going to be there.

If anyone wants to pick up an extra 258 promo (either Matt Smith or the Stephen Amell one), I have an extra Matt Smith Wondercon one that I'd be willing to trade for it!
Mr. Blue has always been cool so I will ask if he can spare a couple. I almost always buy from him when he has new stuff out.

I will be looking for the 258 West promos as well. I also need the 2013 C2E2 and 2013 Wondercon ones.

Here's my Mars Attacks-inspired print I'll have available at the show.
And I haven't shared this anywhere else yet, but I've got new promo cards to give out at the show as well! Thanks, Versicolor.

Those are both outstanding, Ted!! I am glad I'll be at the show so I can pick one up.
By the way, I love the what's going on in those deathrays on the right. LOL That's funny.

Sorry everyone, but our host (ie: me) has laryngitis and lost his voice. We were very much looking forward to the panel, and unveling a couple of big new projects. We'll announce them elsewhere... hopefully very soon.

Feel better soon, Martian Commander. Take some Kryptonite, moon rocks, or whatever it is that makes Martian Commanders want to ack, ack, ack and not hack, hack, hack.
