BOTCON IS LIVE

Great news, now I need to find someone that can help out with obtaining all the figures.

[KillinSpoon]

So what, I fill out the form then find someone to pick them up for me?

If you are a non-attendee, you select the non-attendee package (Iacon package) and it will be posted to you after the event is over. Shipping cost may be extra if you are not in Nth America.

Oh sweet, I ordered with the idea that it would be sent out to me.
Then it came up with this;
'Please bring a copy of your invoice to package-pickup.'

So it will be sent to me?
Also, it let me just order a shirt and hat without the package.

...I have no idea what is going on, I should have asked you guys first :P

The Hall of Fame dinner was on the same page as the tours/customsing class. The last option on that page. (Or did I imagine it)\

Did you order an Iacon (non-attending) package or the Primus (attending) package?

I had another look over the registration, and saw that the Iacon package isn't on there yet. Last year they put it up a couple weeks later, to prioritise those going. They haven't said if they are doing that this year, but the FAQ might say something about it.

If you registered for a Primus package, you might have a bit of a problem, as they can cancel people's purchase if they register to attend but later ask to have it posted to them (to prevent people from buying a set after the small number of non-attendee sets were sold out).
Best to send them a message about it, saying that the Iacon/non-attendee set wasn't on the online registration form, and being your first time, you didn't realise it. Ask them if Iacon packages were supposed to be included yet (because the HOF event was missing too), and see if you can have yours changed or cancelled, so that you can re-register as a non-attendee.

So, Funpub aren't selling tickets to it. Or at least, not yet. That sucks. If they do, it means having to keep an eye out for it later, or fighting a queue at botcon if they sell tickets there.
Hopefully it isn't something Hasbro US end up selling through their online store, as it could end up blocking people outside of Nth America.


Actually, now that I think of it, Hasbro ran the event last year, but FunPub still organised it, and took care of the admission to it.
