Default A few photos from metrocon 2010

This was my first year going to metrocon in cosplay. It was a lot of fun...everyone was so nice I didn't really know anyone else that was going, but I had a good time. I was Ezio from Assassin's Creed II Here were some pictures:

How was the convention? Everyone I know that went said it was pretty "meh" and there was a noticeable decline in quality compared with years past. What was your take on the dealer room? How was the planning and layout of the panels?

I had a great time, My "Evolution of American Anime" and "SHAFT Anime Theater" panels were big hits. The Chess Match had much more of an emphisis on comedy this year. The new GXX show was awesome. And I got caught in the middle of a food fight between Kirby Morrow, Scott McNeil, and Richard Ian Cox. Plus, I caught it on tape, it was awesome.

Great costume! I'm glad you enjoyed yourself. I'm also glad your panels went well, matisleonhart. I've heard a lot of interesting things about the con this year, and I expect that TBA will be returning to Artist's Alley in 2011.

i thought it was really fun. i've only been the last 2 years so i cant really compare it to old ones. one thing though was they underestimated how many people wanted to see the hetalia world conference panel. i didn't get to see it since the room filled up

the vendor room was very similar to the year before. and slightly expensive.

actually, that not on the people who run metrocon but whoever was running the panel.
