(PLEASE NOTE: Lineup  and type of item/s available subject to change/substitutions without prior  notification. Due to recent policy changes at the Comic Con, we are still  formulating how tickets will be distributed to interested people.) Not only that  but you can get a chance to talk with, Shocker Toys President Geoff Beckett, at  Comic Con panels dealing with the toy industry. Also meet some of the great  artists involved in the Indie Spotlight lineup of new independent comic book action figures, Shocker Toys will be appearing at the following panels:

Behind the Plastic:  From Concept to Collectible. What are the steps to making an action figure? This  panel of toy professionals discusses the process of how your favorite characters  go from an idea on paper to a toy in your hot little hands. Preproduction,  design, and manufacturing are part of the process, but what does that entail?  How does a character get chosen? Why do they pick a particular version of a  character? What materials do they use? Ask any burning question you’ve ever had about the action figure business and be a fly on the wall as some of the top  names in the industry sit down together, as they do only once a year at this  event, and talk toys. Moderator- Julius Marx from Action Figure Times
