Even the autographs at the booths aren't made for regular attendees. I tried the Marvel booth for signings a few years back, I swear I made it the booth within 30-45 seconds running when they opened. Security was yelling to everyone to walk. I know I was one of the 1st through the door.There already was a huge line for the Marvel booth for tickets for autographs and all the lottery tickets were drawn before half the line went in to draw. Rigged.

 

SDCC better do something about that this year. It seems that it has always been the same problem for years now.

Does anyone know if the Marvel Shop t-shirts will be sold online, or how has it been handled in the past? I noticed they're calling them "limited edition" rather than "show exclusives", which indicates they might be available outside of the show?

Out of curiosity, is Hasbro ticketed for all of SDCC?
Except preview night.

 

Camping out, or close to it, is gonna be your best bet for hasbro if you want to guarantee getting stuff

 

What I've done with success the past few years is wait by the Hasbro booth as they let people with tickets in. They allow those without tickets in as it slows down. It's like this for each time slot.

Since Friday I've noticed more and more homeless in my neighborhood.

I live on the outskirts of the gas lamp ( by the train station ).

 

Seems they are clearing the homeless earlier this year for you all to think downtown is so nice. lol

So it's a free for all on Preview Night?

 

Are you still playing words with friends, dork?

 

More like, if you head straight to hasbro when they release the lines, then you will see the hasbro line is already closed for preview night.

So getting the actual badge is a different story, but once you have the badge it's all good?

 

Just a note of caution: a female friend got caught using a male friend's badge last year and it almost got taken away. Best to not try and get into places where they check a little more closely (like Hall H) or other areas where they may scan your badge.

 

From my experience all through the years, yes, once that I have had my badge no one has ever looked at it other than to wave me in. Scanning badges? Yes that happens at some booths usually to get on a mailing list or for some kind of raffle or prize, but this has always been because I wanted that service or product. Of course there are always exceptions, but once that you have a legit badge in hand you are highly unlikely to have a problem after that.

 

Yep. I was a Michelle last year and I didn't have any issues. If you are worried about it just try to acquire a badge that has a guy name or a name that is unisex. Once your in, chances are that they check your id are slim.

They have always said they never sell it online since its a con exclusive. The best chance you got to obtaining them are either someone gets it for you or wait for someone on eBay to resell it.

I guess I'll have to hope for ebay.
