      @Ichnob:

      If you forward Toshiya a copy of your registration e-mail along w/ a copy of an ID, he should be able to pick it up for you.

      Yeah, I actually need to do that soon.

      Toshiya, you better be able to pull through if I send you all the aformentioned things Ichnob mentioned for you to get my badge.

        @Shirotora:

        Rawr, wholesale huh…
        But yeah, if something comes up, I'll be happy to hear from you 🙂

        Update on the hats:
        The website/manufacturer is Pantropic Hats. They have two straw panama hats that can look dead on for Luffy's hat, but they're pricey (however, I would be willing to pay this much for a good Luffy hat). Sadly, they come in a 1-size fits most category (so probably not for me). Here are the two hats:

        Pantropic Panama Swinger - $40

        Pantropic Panama Gaucho - $45

        Add your own red hat ribbon, and you're good to go. Sadly, no XL size for me (they say they go up to a size 7-1/8 comfortably, I wear 7-1/2). The search continues.

          So, AX is coming up fast, and due to some serious shortages of funds, I'm going to need to choose 1 or 2 days to go…preferably the days that there is something going on, like any OP fan gathering or something. Maybe nothing official is happening, but if there's a day that is best for all the AP people to get together and hang out like we did last year, let me know!

            Definitely go Saturday, because that's when the OP cosplayers are meeting up (specifically, Saturday at 3:30 at the LACC stairs site #2…whatever that means).

            Hmm...I see that there's an Indiana Jones/Star Wars meet up on the first day...maybe I'll wear my Indy costume on Day 1.

              Looks like I'll be going 3 out of the 4 days, and the day which I won't be going will most definitely be Thursday. I've got work that day and I wasn't able to find a co-worker that could switch shifts.

              Oh yeah CosmicDebris, if you want to see any of my art let me know and I'll see if I can bring any with me to the Expo.

                  Everyone has something that they want to do at the con. Make them go with you to the One Piece cosplay gathering at least.🆒

                  Besides, I usually separate myself from whichever group I go with because:
                  1. Easier to weave through the crowd
                  2. I can shop at my own pace
                  3. None of my friends want to be my "bag bitch" (they carry my stuff while I pose for a pic 😆)
                  4. I can back track if I need to through the exhibit hall
                  5. I don't have to keep tabs on anyone

                    For me it's all about the panels and screenings, so I don't have much time for socializing. That's why I'm upset about not going on Thursday, I'm gonna miss the "Otaku no Video" screening and the "Anime in China" and "Honeamaise" panels. Sunday is for everything else, a disposable day.

                      Yep Yep! Everything's working out just fine!

                      Managed to get Wed-Sun off from my job thanks to a time request off loophole. Currently attempting to generate a list of supplies for the trip as well as seeing how many bags I have.

                      Anyone else staying in the Bonaventure? Anything I should know about it, like good places to get some grub, or places to check out? I'm so terribly excited over all this.

                      Hopefully I can meet up with some of you and hang out or something (Toshiya, bring your DS with J:US - we'll have a head to head showdown. Or better yet, we could make poffins on D/P).

                      I'll probably be getting my badge around 3. Shouldn't be too hard to pick me out of a crowd.

                            It's the Westin Bonaventure. One of the Hotels from AX this year.

                            Where will you find…

                              Hmm, I figured the people in L.A. would just go back-and-forth instead of getting a hotel room. At least, that's what I'm doing.

                              Ah wait nevermind. Toshiya you staying at the Boney Venture?

                                Yeah. The majority of us are staying in the Bonaventure.

                                  Well in case you guys wanna know here's my plan.

                                  Thursday after work I'll probably crash at my friend's place and Friday morning I'll get my badge and well, that's all I got. I'm hoping public transportation won't be a bitch 'cause I don't know how long I'll be staying out during the night. Last year I was bummed out from the overstimulation and I have a feeling it's gonna be worse this year, so if there's one thing I regret it's not being able to hang out with you guys down at the Boney Adventure.

                                    Darn, that Saturday I was supposed to go to a party 👅 Why does everything always happen on Saturday? But it's not one I'd stay at a long time anyway. I'll probably be coming Thurs-Fri or Fri-Sat. I'll come hang out at the Bonaventure….I remember when they used to have a big record convention there :3

                                      As long as the noise is kept to a minimum, a few people (especially you Cosmic :P) are welcome at the suite Bushido, Hoffy and my group are staying at.

                                      There's technically only supposed to be two people in the room so sssssshhhh >__>.

                                        This goes against my usual principles, but if someone is willing to let me crash, let me know.

                                          I just texted Bushido, and he's about an hour out of Phoenix. According to my dad, if they don't stop or hit major traffic they'll be in California by sunrise or a little earlier.

                                            Hell of a day at work. Kicked my ass so far up the wall that I fell asleep when I got home. Just now woke up, and still have to Iron and pack my clothes, my snacks, nick-knacks, AND download the Cats Don't Dance soundtrack for the road trip.

                                            I'm beat, but not out. With luck, my next post will be coming from the hotel.

                                              Looking forward to meeting up with fellow APers. So who else is going to get their tickets early for day 0 besides myself and Toshiya?

                                                    Update on the hats:
                                                    The website/manufacturer is Pantropic Hats. They have two straw panama hats that can look dead on for Luffy's hat, but they're pricey (however, I would be willing to pay this much for a good Luffy hat). Sadly, they come in a 1-size fits most category (so probably not for me). Here are the two hats:

                                                    Pantropic Panama Swinger - $40

                                                    Pantropic Panama Gaucho - $45

                                                    Add your own red hat ribbon, and you're good to go. Sadly, no XL size for me (they say they go up to a size 7-1/8 comfortably, I wear 7-1/2). The search continues.

                                                    Hey thanks! AX is coming up this week and it seems a bit late for me to do anything at this moment. xP One of my friends have a straw hat, but it's in use of somebody else in her family. Bleh. Hopefully, they'll have a flag or perhaps even a straw hat there at AX…which I will speedily buy.
                                                    I'm going there on Saturday, so hopefully I'll be seeing a lotttt of One Piece cosplayers and perhaps some AP forumers.

                                                      @Lapen: Dude, that avatar is wrong on so many levels XD. What time will you be there to get your badge?

                                                        Sure that sounds fine. That's the one thing I wanna do this year that I really missed out on, meeting up with the AP memebers that is.

I'll probably lounge around/explore the place before I get my badge at 3. I'm on the 22nd floor, and I'm not too partial to heights, but I'll survive. Doesn't look to be a DVD player here either, so I'll have to watch my movies on my laptop.

                                                                    If you manage to catch me, I'll give you me Pot O' Gold , er I mean, my room number or phone number or something, so we can organize something. Women's bath, I mean, looking forward to meeting you all. Women's bath, I mean, good luck finding me!

As an added bonus, his daughter was cosplaying as Cindry, and they happen to be really big One Piece fans as well! If you browse through his photos, you can see Masa, Ikuy, SunnyGo, Mr. 13, Kaizoku-Syn, and myself. He's got some really good photos and profile pictures.

My friend saw them hanging off their cashier tables and asked if they were for sell the one of the guys there looked surprised and was like, "Oh! They're free". There was also one of series there but I can't remember what it was for my life. - _ -

I think I know which one it was because my friend saw it and brought me along with her the second time to go look at it, but it was gone when I went there. The lady selling it was kinda annoyed at my friend like, "See?? You should've bought it then! I told you"
                                                                                              Hahah.

                                                                                              Lastly, I bought some stuff from e1n, so that was pretty cool.

The man that wrote the worst X-Men movie script that's even humanly possible. The man that butchered Snake's voice in the Metal Gear series. The man that says "EA SPORTS... IT'S IN THE GAME". That douche.

The man that wrote the worst X-Men movie script that's even humanly possible. The man that butchered Snake's voice in the Metal Gear series. The man that says "EA SPORTS… IT'S IN THE GAME". That douche.
