Just got back from niagara comic con. Got autographs from Kane Hodder, Jeremy bulloch, David prowse, Jason David frank, Ted dibiase, lanny poffo, hacksaw Jim Dugan, corey feldman, and Tom savini. I was able to get everyone I wanted except for mick foley!!!!! His line was crazy. There had to be at least 200 plus people in his line. All in all an awesome day but I'm pretty disappointed about not getting foley. I was around the 20th person in line to meet him and it took me an hour to get to the front. Did you go to the booth with the basics and 2 packs? Yup I saw the booth but the prices were a bit high. Didn't grab any figures today. Did u find the lineups really unorganized??

It took the guys half an hour to organize the line, and practically most people didn't understand what one of them was saying because he had a really strong accent. I want whoever organized the JDF line to have organized the Foley line, maybe then I would have gotten an autograph from JDF. >:l

I probably could have had my dad hold my spot in line for Foley, go over to JDF, get his auto, come back and still be in line for Foley.

Ya Comic Con was a lot of fun today, got my Virgil and Ted Dibiase Classic Superstars 2-pack signed in silver and My Classic Superstars Million Dollar Belt Set with Ted in White Suit signed in gold today. Also got My 3 Classic Mankind signed with yellow and Dude Love with blue paint marker signed by Mick Foley, Finally my The Toyfare Exclusive Classic Cactus Jack signed in gold, They all look pretty sick. Foley was an endurance test, I waited 3 and a half hours in line for the Micker...legs were gettin pretty crampd after a while LOL. So many people behind in the huge line when I got got to the front at 2:30, theres no way he could have signed for everybody since the line was so slow moving. Seemed a bit disorganized but good to see a huge turnout! Oh and Lanny Poffo, Macho Man's bro was there as well!

This is the first time I saw it here so I'm sure you will get it soon. Awesome but costs 50 bucks!
Also, yes I noticed that too. I grabbed an 8x10 from the soup nazi. Felt bad, he really didn't have too many people that came to see him. He was an awesome guy though, very friendly.

Here are my autographs from Nikolai Volkoff. I found about this signing the night before but didn't have enough time to make a post on here until two hours before the signing. I was there at the beginning of the signing and there were only 4 or 5 people to meet him when I was there. Autographs on your own items were free and photo-ops were too. Overall, he was really quiet. He seemed disappointed.. probably because there wasn't that many people who went out to meet him WWF Board Game (look closely on those mini pics of the wrestlers, he signed underneath his pic) That's an awesome board game. Brings back memories. You should get hogan to sign it when he comes here in August.

When I met him in April he was charging 75 bucks. I would imagine it will be around the same price at fanexpo.

damn autograph prices are crazy...
decided not to go to niagara comic con.. didnt feel like wasting the day.. ive met foley, hacksaw, and dibiase before.. and i didnt go see nasty boys when they were in toronto.. so it wasnt a big deal for me.. i was a huge power rangers fan, but definitely not enough to go to a comic con to meet one of them...
almost went back up to aurora to meet wendel clark and darryl sittler, both were doing signings there saturday...
just ended up golfing on saturday and doing house work sunday.. no going around for any thing...
nice to hear that nikolai was signing for free... if i didnt hate going to downtown toronto on a busy saturday, i definitely would have gotten my LJN poster, LJN Tag poster, and probably a program signed... oh well..
i mostly like to go to signings when there is something else going on there.. like a toy show, etc...

I went to Niagara Falls Comic Con over the weekend as well. I mainly went for JDF and some others so I got them all taken care of first. Was going to meet Mick Foley only if I could so I lined up for him a few times during the day only to give up a few times b/c it seemed it was going no where and there was other stuff I wanted to do. Luckily, the line really died down at the end of the day and it was only a small line of about maybe 10 people or so and I managed to meet him then. I heard he was supposed to be done at 4 but there was still a line so Mick said to keep going until 5 so he could get to everyone. Such a great guy.

^ yup.. Mick is great like that.. i remember going to meet him at a Walmart or Zellers back in early 1999... it was suppose to be The Rock, but then Foley won the title, and they made it Foley instead (i was really pissed at the time lol.. still kind of am since ive never met the Rock).. but it was a HUGE turnout for Foley (tho i bet a lot of ppl that it was going to be the Rock, so thats why it was huge).. he was only suppose to be there for 2 hrs, but the lines were so massive, he was almost there for 4 hours i believe.. got my autograph.. and then went shopping and came back, and it was down to 10 ppl or so, so we went back to talk to him again, hold the world title, take pics, etc...good times when you are a young kid lol...
if might have actually been where the No Frills is now at Victoria Park and Eglinton..tho im not 100% sure

Anyone see the new bleacher creatures on wweshop? They said that they are selling limited first editions of the series. Are they worth getting?? Also went to three value village locations and came up with absolutely nothing.
