I should have said something. I'm a pretty quiet guy. I'd laugh if the guy I was joking with is on the forum.
You were two people over from me before they started tinkering with the line.
I'm not sure if I'll be there tomorrow. Might do some touristy stuff and head home. If I can convince my friend to come in, maybe I'll swing by for lex.
Steamboat took up 1/3 of the back of my WWE 50 book.

looks like you guys all had a good time.. i will be there tomorrow around 11-12 depending on traffic.. i figure without HBK, sunday will be less busy and i got my VIP passes, so i most likely will be able to just go right in.. dont want to go at opening at 10am in case the wrestlers arent there yet.. so figured give them some time and go around 11ish... if anyone is there and wants to say Hi, i will most likely be wearing my Brock Lesnar shirt... you should be able to spot me

I'm kinda disappointed i didn't go to the NFCC but i wanna save money for Survivor Series (possibly NXT) and Wrestlemania next year :/ but looks like everyone had a good time, read Champs report and it appeared Shawn Michaels line was disorganized, rushed and they cut the line so that must have been a hassle.

Went back to Comic Con and met Ricky Steamboat and Lex Luger. They were both nice.
But man, poor Luger. He looks in rough shape. Very frail and still in a wheelchair. I did shake his hand though and it felt very frail.
He had no line and you could walk right up to him. Got my red carded WWF Hasbro figure signed as well as his WCW Galoob figure.
Today was nowhere near as busy as yesterday.
I did meet Arun there I think, so it was nice seeing you again. Sweet WrestleMania One program!! Lol. Hang onto that!!
Overall, I am very glad we went again. Had a good time this year at Comic con.

Finally found B60 Kofi. Didn't really like the scan as much now that I've seen it in person so I didn't pick it up. Plus the attire looks too close to his Elite (if they aren't the same).

went to NFCC today with my VIP passes.. didnt need them at all.. no line up for Luger Jake or Finkel.. and maybe 3 ppl for Steamboat.. as mentioned, Luger is defintiely looking frail, but he was very nice and quite talkative.. i got two items signed by him and both of them he talked about.. first was a coliseum video posted and he just smiled and talked about how they always had to go into the studios in stanford to film promos to put on the VHS tapes... then i got the NWA Roos poster signed by him (originally from The Champ, thanks!) and he was telling me how he use kept a pair of the shoes for like 20 years before he sold them off with other parts of his collection... then i got two posters signed by Steamboat.. my WM4 and my WWF superstars fan club one... he was nice.. let me take my time.. quick chat but very quiet.. Fink is always great to talk to.. asks your name first, where ur from, how long you have been a fan, etc... got my buddies WM1 poster from the WWE poster book signed for him... jake was by far the worst one today.. looked kind of miserable... just grabbed my buddies poster book and signed quickly.. first words out of his mouth to me were "THIRTY"...and i paid it and basically left.. got there around 12.. left by about 12:45... nothing much i wanted to do there..got what i wanted I still need to somehow get One Man Gang, Don Muraco and Butch Reed on my WM4 poster and then it will be complete (with living wrestlers)... but i dont see much opportunity for them... my wwf fan club poster still has a bunch.. and some that i have missed over time like Piper (didnt have it with me when i met him), Tito (hopefully he will be back), Steele (bailed day of from hamilton comic con 2 years ago) and Hillbilly Jim (bailed on this years)....so ill see who i can get on that still.. sorry for the ramble... tonight/tomorrow i will take some pictures of those 4 posters!

Overall, I am very glad we went again. Had a good time this year at Comic con. Good to see you too buddy. there wasn't much of a crowd today at all. Waited about 40 minutes for steamboat to arrive. Overall I was in and out in about 2 hours. Spent some time looking around but didn't buy anything. I saw an ad for the Hamilton convention saying that Bret Hart and Foley will be appearing. Lanny Poffo will be there too. I actually didn't spend too much today as I have Fanexpo, Hamilton Comic con and then survivor series all coming up within the next 6 months.

Hopefully no one ran into those massive downpours on the highway like I did.
Had to pull over for a few minutes. Couldn't see a thing. Happened just outside of Woodstock and then another one on the other side of London.
Hoping to get to Hamilton as well. Would like to meet a few of the people listed. Can anyone take a pic of the advertisement for Hamilton?

yeetman13 - really surprised to hear that about Jake. He was really nice and talkative, and made so many jokes yesterday. _______________ Met Jeff Jarrett at the Destiny show tonight; will post pics and report soon. As a reminder, Eric Bischoff will be at their show on July 17. Also, just announced tonight, Damien Sandow will be at their August 28th show. EDIT:Jeff Jarrett report added: forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/328932/jeff-jarrett-autograph-signing-report

Hey guys, been a while since I've been on here. Since the retail game is slow, I had a look on amazon.ca. To my surprise they had Elite 42 the whole set with various prices.. anywhere from 32-39 and they have the prime feature. Decent.
Also saw Basic 60, everybody but Renee up for 14.99 a piece. Grabbed Orton, Kalisto and Kofi.
