2018 GI Joe Convention Day 4

So today was a pretty slow day, but that's to be expected the last day of a con.  We only had one planned panel for the day. We started out going through the vendor room to see if there were any  new deals.  I didn't find anything truly spectacular that I wanted so we hung out for a while.  We ate our lunch and sat around outside the panel room for a while.  Melody really enjoyed herself and actually made a few friends!  While she played I went and bought some of the Complex Base Building sets.  I can't wait to get these set up!

The one planned panel we had was The Last Panel with the G.I. Joe Collectors’ Club Staff.  This was the most crowded panel yet.  Being the final panel for the GI Joe club it wasn't that surprising.  Everyone seemed pretty excited and then the club dropped the surprise announcement of some new figures.  There will be 12 final figures.  The goal is obviously to try and complete some sub teams before the end of the club.  It was rather exciting and the crowed was really excited.  Slaughter's Marauders Low Light and Barbecue are the figures I want the most.  I would have liked them in my convention set, but at least they are out there now!  It was a rather fun surprise from the club.  After the announcements they started a slide show from the past conventions, but this was my first Joecon so I didn't find it terrible interesting.  The Joecon regulars really appeared to enjoy it.  That's the point right?  After that they started the farewell speeches from the members and the GI Joe Club staff.

After that I made a quick run through the vendors, grabbed a quick figure on a good deal, and then we headed out.  It was a great convention and we had a great time!  I'm sad that it's the last Joecon because I would have enjoyed going to more of these. But as they said this is just an end of a chapter and a new chapter will start!
