Comic-Con, or San Diego Comic-Con is an annual event showcasing not just comics, but toys, figures, video games, and so on. It's being held in San Diego, California annually without fail since 1970. It's being held from 24th till 27th July this year. Most North American readers would know more about this event than I do ^^
These are the photos from the first day of that event. Very few Gundam or the regular Japanese mecha merchandises were displayed during the event though.
GFF Metal Composite Psycho Gundam, Psycho Gundam Mk. II and 1/100 Gundam RX-78-2 Ver. Ka with G Fighter.
Older MSIAs like Zeta and Wing Zero Custom were being displayed at the Gundam booth.
The promo for MSIA Gundam Double O should be targeted for North American audience who are getting to watch the dubbed version of the series being aired soon, in early November.
In Action!! OffShoot Lancelot and Burai variations.
Using Japanese information sign cards doesn't look like a very bright idea, does it now Bandai? ^^;
