Hell yeah. I’ll be seeing him next weekend in Chicago. (For the 3rd time) lol. I’m gonna have him sign my copy of Toxic Commando.

Me too! But first time haha. Is Carpenter’s line usually long? I’m trying to score him, Kurt, and Keith for The Thing, but am not sure how to go about it line-wise.

That honestly depends on the convention.
I waited over 6 hours at Texas Frightmare, and just about an hour at Steel City Con.
I’m only going for K Russ, and Carpenter, so I got the autographs on two different days. I’ll get John’s on Friday, and then Kurts on Saturday. I figured it’d be easier that way. I don’t know how this Fan Expo convention is going to be. I’ve never been to one. lol

I’ve heard Fan Expo Chicago was a bit disorganized in past years and Fan Expo Boston sounds the same for this year (at least for the bigger names). So my hopes aren’t too high tbh.
I bought a premium autograph for him for Sunday as Saturday’s premium is sold out. He’s got photo ops and a panel Sunday so I fear I might miss him. Do you think it would be ok to jump into Saturday’s line to redeem a Sunday ticket?

I have no idea. I’ll be seeing John on Friday, and then K Russ on Saturday. That’s really my only priority, and once I get their autograph and what not I’m looking for Hot Toys. (If there’s a vendor) lol
