My coverage of Fanime 2010 consists of just the Dealer’s Hall since that’s where I was most of the time due to having to stand watch over our Figure Haven booth.
Well, Fanime officially opens tomorrow and we’re essentially done setting up our humble booth space. The empty shelves and part of the table will be filled tomorrow with scaled figures, nendos, and figmas put on display.

After looking at the latest NIS America email, I found out that Yui Horie (Minori Kushieda from Toradora!) and Eri Kitamura (Ami Kawashima from Toradora!) were attending Anime Expo this year as Guests of Honor.
Besides the Dealer’s Hall with its countless goods for sale, why should you attend this year’s Anime Expo?
Figure Haven will be attending this year’s Fanime Convention which is held at the San Jose Convention Center from May 28th to the 31st.
Line to pick up badges
Just got back from Blizzcon today. Here are some photos I took during the two day convention.
I’m attending Blizzcon for the first time this year!
Currently staying at the Hyatt, but the wireless connection I’m using is a bit unstable so I might not be making future posts until after Blizzcon (I’ll try my best to do so though).
I’ll be attending the Opening/Closing ceremonies for sure along with the finals for the WoW Arena and Starcraft tournaments. Haven’t decided on which panels to go to yet, but they should be interesting.
Probably going to pick up my badge/goodie bag later tonight when it’s cooler. The smog in Los Angeles is ugh.
With Anime Expo 2009 over, I thought I’ll share some of the pictures I took there. Enjoy!

Leaving in the morning for a road trip down to Los Angeles, California to attend AX09. I’ll be gone for a few days, and there might or might not be new posts until then.
To anyone else that’s attending, hope we’ll have a great time! For the people unable to go, here’s a moe version of C.C. by Tatekawa Mako to cheer you up. ^^
So I’ve decided to attend AX this year and compiled a list of the GoHs attending along with some of the projects they’ve worked on. The info was found on the Anime Expo website along with some help from the Anime News Network.
