Rumor from the convention floor is that product for JoeCon is “stuck in customs” and won’t be at the hotel until late tonight. What that means is Golden Ticket pick up is now slated for around 3:00pm tomorrow, so don’t stay up late tonight to see the news, East Coast. 🙂

If there’s any advantage to not making the trip to Loveland this year (and really, this is about the only advantage I can think of) it’s that I can at least try and sit back and offer some coverage of the JoeCon excitement. With this being only the third Convention I haven’t been able to attend in thirteen years, you’ll have to excuse me if I’m a bit melancholy and a little unaccustomed to the coverage from this perspective.
Today is Wednesday, which means it’s Golden Ticket pickup! There will be no special attendee exclusives revealed today, HOWEVER Golden Ticket holders will be getting their Convention Comic, and within the pages of that convention comic should be the details about the rest of the convention exclusives!
Golden Ticket pickup is at 8:30pm mountain time tonight, which should be around 10:30pm eastern. It’ll be here before you know it.
Check out my post from last year to see how this tends to look, and while we won’t get a specific idea of many of the individual characters or how they look, the list of exclusives will shed some light.
Even though I’m not in Colorado, I do have some “boots on the ground” and will endeavor to get the information relayed as fast as humanly possible… although I would much rather be in Loveland enjoying my favorite weekend of the year, there are still plenty of exciting things to come over the next several days, I hope you’ll join me in this year’s JoeCon coverage!

It’s that time again!! The Full Force boys are back with a brand new episode filled with all the things you have come to expect….ooer!! Packed with innuendo laced material, much like that previous sentence, news brought to you by Justin Bell at General’s Joes and WOJM and as up to date as one can manage when having to edit hours of Dave Tree. A classic figure review of Jammer to commemorate his FSS 4 appearance, modern reviews by Justin Bell and an interview with Jim Beard and that pesky Justin Bell again as they discuss their upcoming ‘Joy of Joe’ book project and other cool things!! On top of that we continue with our new ‘Male Bag’ segment, the smallest ‘What We Got In’ ever and a brand new game called ‘File-O-Facts’!! What could that be? There’s only one way to find out……FULL FORCE!!!
