Glorietta Activity Center , Glorietta , Makati City
1. Displays - There will be lifesize statues which we can say "hard
to find" and a "museum" type of display for the event.
2. Toy Companies - A big mistake about Manila Comic Con is that the
event just sole focus is on comics. Can't blame them but we have
commitments from local distributors to give the Filipino Toy
collectors a sneak peek on whats coming out.
3. Comics!!! - We have confirmed some comic book artists attending and
hint hint: video greetings from personalities abroad. There will be
comic book signings indeed but we will also do a comic book launch and
panel.
4. Cosplay - the theme will be holloween but of course you can still
come as a superhero and we will announce the prizes really soon and
these are exciting prizes to look out for. Right now, we are checking
if our budget will permit a MASQUERADE party on Saturday evening (I am
really pushing for this).
If we pull this off together with everyone's support, Ayala might give
us another event on April which we promise would be bigger than our
November event. There might be big expectations for this event to be
similar to conventions abroad and we want it that way. We might not be
able to be at par with conventions abroad but we will really try.
