Otakon

[lbd_nytetrayn]

Heading out to Otakon first thing in the morning. On Friday (currently, as these things are often prone to change), I'll be a part of a panel scheduled for 4pm to 5 (4:50, technically) in Workshop 1 (Room 339-340) called "Cheers to 21 Years of Megaman!" Slightly pre-emptive, since we're still in his 20th year, but hey.

I'm not sure how it'll work out; last year's (run by someone else) let people from the preceding panel's audience stay, thus keeping a lot of people who waited in line out of the room. From things I've heard, that might have been for the best, as the guy was apparently willing to drop heavy spoilers on the ending of the then-unreleased Mega Man ZX Advent. But none of that here! At least on my part, and I'm trusting my fellow panelists will extend that courtesy as well. Then again, there isn't a game Japan has yet that we don't, so we're fortunate in that regard.

Anyway, if you're going to be at Otakon this weekend, and you're a fan of Mega Man, come and check it out. We're going to have some Q&A and raffle off some prizes, and I have something big planned, and while I can't share what it is, I'm sure it'll make all the fans in attendance excited. Unfortunately, there was a bit of a snag in it, so it won't go off exactly as planned, but I can promise that if you're a serious fan, you'll want to be a part of it.

See you there!

Please tell me your panel will have some sort of artwork on display of 21-year-old Megaman getting irresponsibly drunk, shenanigans ensuing, etc? Because such an occasion should never go undocumented.

Well, we hope to document it, but unfortunately our panel was approved at the last minute to replace another, so we didn't have time to prepare such shenanigans. :(

Oh, I almost forgot to ask, but I'll probably take them anyway just in case, but I have some Mega Man NT Warrior figures (HeatGuts style Mega Man and a Torch Soul) that I got at Wal-Mart on clearance a few years ago, but they just sit around and the boxes will just get more banged up if they sit around here... want them? I'm not sure if I feel like lugging them around all day, but we can work something out like delivering them at night.

Oh, that would be cool. I think I may have those, but it'd be cool for the raffle, if that idea interests you. If not, I can still give them a good home. :)

My mistake, I have Heat Guts, but not Torch Soul.

How much did you want for these, anyway?

How much? Pfft, I got them for a pittance, and I'm just trying to clean my room. A donation! A gift! Whatever. I'll be in the reg line Friday morning/afternoon, so either you can pick stuff up then or I can meet up with you guys and deliver them if you want them for the raffle or something. I figure it'd be kind of a nightmare to try to get it to you right before the panel, so earlier would be better, I think.

Thanks again for the donation :) I was able to give Heat Guts to a friend, though I've kept Torch Soul.

And thanks for coming out to the panel, hope you enjoyed. :) Hopefully we can do this again next year, and make it even better.
