Comic Con Internation caps preview night tickets for 2010

sdcclogo.jpg

Comic Con International, the group behind the San Diego Comic-Con has announced it will be limiting the number of people able to get into the Wednesday evening Preview Night event.

Because of the increasing number of attendees on Preview Night each year, we have decided to limit attendance for Preview Night in 2010.  It is impossible to accommodate every person who registers for a four-day badge on Preview Night, so we made available four-day memberships with and without the Preview Night option.

Currently, there are no more Preview Night badges available, but there are still four-day memberships still available.

The good news is, those 6-inch figures are being done by the same group that is doing the DC Universe Classic line, which means high quality sculpts with multiple points of articulation.  Bonus ghost figures are nice, but I really want  the first wave to be a build-a-figure Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man.

Press Release follows

Culver City, Calif. – February 4, 2009 - Sony Pictures Consumer Products and Mattel, Inc. announced today the development of a new collectible line of toys based on the world’s favorite poltergeist fighting team, the Ghostbusters, including an extensive cast of ghosts and ghostbusters – celebrating the 25th anniversary of the frightfully funny classic film “Ghostbusters.”

Sigh… I guess I’m going to have to spend some time on eBay in the weeks following the convention.
