Gobble-Con Cancelled Indefinitely

Gobble-Con is canceling indefinitely everyone. We tried to make everything better by postponing last year but it has come to this regrettable conclusion. Gobble cannot be run by a small handful of people, and to those people who did their best to assist us when we needed it, we thank you.

Prize Donations by Gaia Online

Gobble-Con would like to thank the people over at Gaia Online for once again supplying our convention with prizes. Everyone who attends Gobble will be given a Gold Certificate and choice of bumper sticker. Gold amount and any other redeemable price through the certificate is unknown to us, so please don’t ask. Thank you Gaia!

 

Announcing Spike Spencer!!!

Gobble-Con is excited to announce that Spike Spencer will be joining us this year! Spike has an array of panels set up for everyone to enjoy. This also makes three out of four of the Evangelion Rebuild voice actors are officially attending Gobble-Con 2013! We hope you all enjoy having Spike and lets all make his first Connecticut convention great!

 

Artists and Dealers – IMPORTANT UPDATE!

ATTENTION ARTISTS AND DEALERS!

Recently Gobble-Con’s venue size has tripled, offering us more space as well as allowing us to have, for the first time ever, separate rooms for our Artists and Dealers on top of hallway/floor space. Due to this, we are offering two different types of tables; “Open” and “Secured”.

If you want a Secured table you will not have to break down your table at the end of the day and all your product will be kept in a locked room over night. The only downfall is you will be paying a little extra for this option.

If you want an Open table you will be responsible for breaking down and securing your own products. Gobble-Con will not be doing this for you nor are we to be held responsible for lost/stolen items should you choose not to pack up your table at the end of the day. This option is also cheaper if you dont mind the work.

Due to our size increase, prices will also be going up. Prices for the new A/V options are as follows;

Artist Open – $50.00 USD
Artist Secured – $100.00 USD
Dealer Open – $100.00 USD
Dealer Secured – $175.00 USD

If you have put in a sign up form prior to this change, you have until Dec. 31st, 2012 to send in your payment of the previous prices. If you do not do so, we will have to charge you for updated prices instead. And since this change was made AFTER you signed up, we will automatically put you in a secured room.

Thank You

 

Brina Palencia Comes to Gobble!

Gobble-Con is super excited to announce that Brina Palencia will be attending our convention in 2013! We officially have the two leading Eva Pilot ladies of the original Neon Genesis Evangelion!! We hope you all enjoy Brina’s company at the con!

 

Masquerade Sign Up – OPEN!

Gobble 2013′s Masquerade sign up form is up and running! You can sign up ahead of everyone simpley by going to the ‘Main Events’ page of the site. Please take note that if you want to sign up this early, it is required that you be pre-registered in order to be considered. Considering the Holiday Sale is only $15.00, we highly reccommend jumping on that deal instead of having to pay $40+ later on or at door which will be even higher.

The Craftsmanship sign up will be open within the next few days, we promise!

 

Holiday Sale Registration

For a short time only, Gobble will have another Holiday Sale for Pre-Reg. Holiday Sale tickets are All Weekend only at $15.00 USD. So head over to the Registration page and get a much cheaper admission fee!

 

The Angels at Gobble-Con 2013

Gobble-Con is launching an Indiegogo campaign to get the four Eva pilots from Neon Genesis Evangelion! To our knowledge, this will be the first time all four of them will be at a convention together so we’re super excited for this. There are a wide variety of donation amounts and special prizes for those of you willing to help us fund this goal. We hope you all enjoy having them at the con!
