Nah he told us a month or so ago that he wouldn't. Between Rutger & I bugging him, his interest was piqued & he checked out his options... Unfortunately there were no tables left at that point. Dooney is going, we suggested he tag along with him but I suppose he didn't care much for the idea. An official turtle table would have to be warranted by viacom & since there is no new material to market they probably would've shot down the proposal. Talbot was rumored to be going but its since been confirmed that he will not be... as is the case with Dan Berger (who can't afford the trip).

I wasn't expecting a mirage table but maybe just them as individual artists.

Well that is the case... except as far as I know, only one is doing it lol. Perhaps we'll get lucky and some of the guys who did only like one issue or something will show, they still count! Can't forget good ol Eastman though!

Anyways....

I GOT MY WEEKEND PASS! I AM SO EXCITED!

*Raph* · 04-30-2010, 02:16 PM

Right on Dennis, congrats on the weekend pass!! And still in time to be an early bird! Woohoo!
About Mirage people coming, Dennis told it all! Basicly it´s Dooney and Eastman! And with the Animé Con attached to the NYCC who knows if more 4Kids voice artists will join the guestlist!

Yea , the Anime Fest usually have a bunch of the 4kids voices.

Going a bit off topic but , have you guys noticed Stan Sakai has never been to NYCC or atleast the Anime Fest . He's one of my other main artist I want to meet .

*Powder* · 04-30-2010, 07:47 PM

Well Stan is super busy this year & said even if he hadn't been, he's just not up to the trip. Such is an unfortunate truth. Luckily, the members of his forum are really nice & if you ask politely, they'll get you stuff from the cons he goes to. Back in december he did a signing at the hundreds store in CA where he debuted "Yokai" & two limited edtion shirts. A nice dude over at the UY dojo went there for me, got me a shirt & copy of Yokai, & had them both signed with full sketches! The sleeve of my shirt is a huge drawing of Usagi & the inside cover of my book has one aswell. Just ask around!

Yea , members have gotten things from Stan for me aswell , but its just a thing of actually meeting him in person .

*Raph* · 05-04-2010, 07:36 AM

Hey guys, little update, My passport is in production and I can pick it up next week! (Only had an ID-card for traveling through Europe)

And I got my T-shirt made to promote my site at the NYCC, and for peeps to recognize me

Whadda ya think??

Also, Dennis I sent you some PM's hope we can book a Hotel soon, gotta get that all done before filling in some goverment form to gain access to the USA.

agliarept · 05-04-2010, 08:03 AM

*blink* That is not the one where the filming was done. I've been going to the Ray's where the filming was done for a few years now, as some friends who was there the day of the filming told me of the location.

"The Famous Ray's Pizza"
465 6th Ave
New York, NY 10011

(Corner of 11th st)

Really it's right down the street from 11th and Bleeker

It really is my favorite pizza in all of New York, and I'm not just saying that because of the TMNT connection there's a lot of Turtle connected food that I don't care for. So if I didn't like it, I wouldn't be returning each time ([;{-)

Biggest warning about the place is there's not much seating there. Plenty of standing room, but the seats are along the back of the place and there's only I think 4 tables.

As Rutger said, I will be at NYC Comic Con already bought my weekend pass, would love to meet up with anyone going. I'll be spending most of my time in panel rooms knowing me, though I do make time for the dealer room and artist alley.

It's sad to think the guys won't all be there...

*Powder* · 05-07-2010, 01:09 PM

It'll be good to meet ya! You gotta take us on a turtle tour of sorts!

Do you know of any turtle-related people who are going as guests that we haven't mentioned already?

agliarept · 05-07-2010, 01:13 PM

i spoke to a work friend of mine, oli, he does the voice of fugitoid on the cartoon, he said he might go i think he hasn't gotten a table yet. I wish eric talbot would go tho, i love his art.

I've been talking to Oliver Wyman weeks ago to come over and meet up in NY.
He agreed to at least meet up in NY outside of the Con with me. I might be able to meet up with Kenn Scott and March Thompson to.

Thanks for the correct info Michele, you'll be a great help when I get there. And I really want to celebrate my birthday on sunday (My b-day is October 10, but this year it's extra special 10-10-'10)
Should I tell them upfront that I want a table that day? I want to celebrate it with a handfull of dromers (at least Michele and Dennis 'Powder' and Scott Williams and maybe 1 or 2 more ). That's something I really want!

*Raph* · 05-10-2010, 06:52 AM

And another update!
My Hotel is booked and boy does it look fancy

Also on the first post of this thread I wrote down everyone who is going, if you know you are going to the NYCC too, say it and I'll add your name in the first post! I'm really curious who are all going!

Buffy · 05-10-2010, 01:13 PM
