Went to SF this past Sunday and got an autograph from Charlie Cox. It seems the JSA authenticator forgot to register my item because when I got to their website and enter the code I received, it says nothing is registered under that code. The guy almost forgot to charge me for my item (my gf was also getting an auto authenticated and he was distracted with that item).

Did anyone else have this issue or know how I could troubleshoot this? TIA

I'm possibly going to meet her soon. Curious what she's like at conventions? Personal or impersonal? Fast or takes time with each individual? Even more so what she's like with disabled people (both physical and intellectual disabilities/obvious speech impairment)?

Hayden appreciation post.

This was back in 2023, at Toronto, ON CANADA, Fan Expo.

Waited 4 hours for this pic and it was worth it. ☺️

A predator from the toronto ontario area named Tom Edward Savage, or savage bandito has begun to make his rounds again and has been spotted on tiktok live under the name foxcarrots, and as well as at some cons in the past year. He was a cosplay photographer who among many many things would get underage cosplayers to take feet pictures in goo and post them on adult sites, as well as sell cosplayers photos as photosets in the same vein without their knowledge. If you or anyone get approached by him, shun him. you can google Tom Savage banned /predator, to see what cons he was banned from and the documentation of what he's done. Stay safe out there yall, and vet your photographers.

Hi!

Bryce is coming to Steel City con this weekend and I'm going to get an autograph and selfie with her. I also have a quick question for her. For those of you that have met her at expos, is she somebody that will answer questions or is it a super quick interaction with her?

I’ve loved Star Wars since I was 4 years old, often being bullied for it. “Girls can’t like Star Wars!” “You only like the love story!” “Only nerds watch that stuff.” Were common phrases I’d hear. I grew up during Hayden’s time, HE made Star Wars for me. I’ve always dreamed of meeting him face to face and telling him thank you for what he’s done for this franchise, and I finally did on Saturday. That man has waited too long to get the recognition and praise he’s rightfully deserved for years. He’s the nicest, most humble actor I’ve ever met. Someone who genuinely gets excited hearing from every single fan. Even in the photo op he made sure and took just a few seconds to shake everyone’s hands and just talk to them. Truly a dream come true!

Just wanted to say that this year’s expo was awesome. As a former D23 Expo attendee who is not on board with a lot of the changes to the way that Expo is being run it is awesome to have local expos in the SF Bay Area like Fan Expo SF and now GalaxyCon San Jose to be able to attend closer to home. Got to meet so many awesome people this past weekend between the celebs themselves and fellow fans waiting in line and the always awesome artists and vendors. I thought the turnout was pretty good this year.

First time attending and just wanted to ask: I know Charlie Cox is listed on the website as $100 for a prepay autograph. Was wondering if I’m paying for a signed picture (I know most celebs in other cons have pics of them offered at their table) or if I’m paying to get an item autographed that I brought with me (bringing a Funko)? Also is this so I can have my code scanned without having to deal with payment at the table?

TIA!

Anyone have 2 tickets? Looking to pay the presale price

Hi Folks,

I have been negotiating with Keith, Nancy, and RemX Staffing to get my hands on my pay card from working at the Fan Expo this year. I was stationed outside all three days, working the lines (the light side versus the dark side!).

While It was at times fun, it wasn't something I would be jumping at the chance to go again. Between no shade, water, or support (Which line do the vendors go to? Oh, the escalators need to be fixed? Oh, there are no ADA accommodations?) and now this..it's left me bummed. Has anyone else had problems getting paid?

Thanks kindly,
Ada

Just left SF fan expo and got to be honest, this event seems very disorganized. 12 different people say 12 different things. We ended up in really long lines because we were told not to line up yet, then people started lining up, so the staff just sort of gave up. Didn’t really seem like everyone was on the same page. However, each staff member was more than helpful. Also Hayden Christensen is the NICEST person, usually during photo ops they’d like you to just walk up and get the picture taken but he takes the time to shake everyone’s hand and ask how their day is going, and also very appreciative of every fan.

All in all if you ever do go to a fan expo event, just show up early and try to get everything figured out immediately, it’ll just save you some time and hassle

Did anyone get to Grey’s booth? I wanted to see the prices for an auto with the pop she was selling :( My group left early so I didn’t get a chance to see prices but will be back tomorrow!

Is it just me or was there supposed to be an anime cosplay meetup at the red carpet at 12 pm today? I checked recently and the event disappeared from the schedule. I don’t have a screenshot for proof, so I’m hoping someone confirm if that’s true.

Does anyone know about backpack policies at Dezerland Park in Orlando? I'm getting there by Uber and live counties away so I wont be able to take my bag back home or store it in a car. I'm disabled so it's mostly just items I may need... blanket, plushie, battery pack, keys, wallet, bottle of water, just little things...

im seeling one general admissionfor sunday for fan expo san franciscofor a cheaper price, originally bought it for 62 dollars but im willing to sell it at a cheaper and reasonable price, let me know for price offe as soon as possible, venmo and paypal accepted

Can we make a list of who is and is not offering selfies this weekend? Did the auto tables list this information yet?

The website says "An email detailing redemption info will be sent out the week of the convention to all ticket holders." However, since I bought the autograph ticket earlier this week, I guess I didn't get it. Does anyone have it so I can know what to do before I get in the actual autograph line? Thank you.

I know the answer to this question but I feel like asking if I print out a photo for photo op and I ask the person to sign I am not guaranteed it huh?

I have two tickets one is autograph and the other one is photo op would I print them both out?

One more question so this is the time I can pick up my badge today cause I am going tommorw I can pick it up between 3-8

I have one ticket for a photo op with Tyler Hoechlin but can one of my friends be in the photo if they don't have a ticket?
