[ArmoredFoe]

Seeing Mesa's pictures from the SDCC Freaks party made me miss you guys.
Can't wait for next year!!!

I asked Waller where you were at man, wanted to thank you in person again for the MOTU figures. Maybe next time brother.

Awww, I feel so special!
Hopefully next year at SDCC, CVI or both!!!

Can't wait for CVI! 391 more days!​

Got tired of that blue already, moving on to green until 365 days!

After the high of SDCC, I wanted to get myself worked up this morning, specifically concerning upgraded VIP tickets to next years CVI event. So, I looked up the information from last years CV, and here you have it. I'm highlighting the major upgrades from Knight to Master, and lets be honest, with only 50 available, I don't see myself going after one anyway. Pretty pricey for such a small amount of upgrades.

Keep in mind, this is last years information and I'm only using it speculatively to plan for next year.

Upgrades from Knight to Master noted in bold.
- my comments in red.

Want to make the most of your Celebration V experience? A general badge to the convention will get you through the doors, but if you want early access, special access, exclusive gifts, and extra services that a regular badge just won't offer, then a Celebration V VIP Package is for you!

And while I don't want to elicit competition for a Jedi Knight badge which I will undoubtedly be after, I do want to impress the importance of this one statement:

"Those who have already purchased Celebration V badges will receive an email notice on March 23 stating when badge sales will go live. They will have 24 hours after that scheduled live time to purchase their VIP Packages, before the sale is announced to the general public."

If they do the same with CVI VIP packages, you better already have your regular badge purchased, or you simply won't be getting a VIP package. The Knight and Master badges sold out in far less than 24 hours last time around.

I did not hear a single good thing for people who did these plans.

 

[SolidLiquidFox]

They took hyperspace away so VIP or volunteering are probably the best bets to get in early.

Its A Trap!!!

Care to elaborate? I only heard from pussface with the Master badge. But for me, the Knight badge is well worth the price for priority seating alone.

Its A Trap!!!

Yes, it most certainly is.

Booo! My friend had Hyperspace so that was how we got in early. O well.

Maybe you will join us for a VIP badge then?

I will join you....or die!

 

[furystorm]

I'm kind of nervous about the VIP ordering...

Well most that I met said the only thing that made it worth it was the Stage entry but then that only helped sometimes. They were not sure it was worth three times the regular price.

Being as I am bringing my son I doubt I can pay $700 bills for two of them
