@cypresswolf !houstonbronies Also, I got some great finds in the dealers room, Strike Witches season 1, Tenchi Muyo Ryo Ohki, Ghost Stories complete series, & Dr. Tran dvd. ^_^ Saw a few Strike Witch figures but not the ones I saw online earlier, so I bought 2 figures - Linette Bishop Figma & Minna Dietlinde Wilcke. Can't wait to get those in, the other 2 aren't available yet, but are on preorder. I also bought $40 worth of pocky! I'll head back to the convention later tonight. I tried to look for some schedules for the weekend, but they weren't available yet. I don't know where anything is, but I'll find out by tomorrow. I'll try to make the concert in the opening ceremonies, cosplay contest, AMV contest and locate the viewing rooms. I got a note pad to write down any new anime series I spot that I like. Well, I'm gonna take that nap now. I'll post again as late as tomorrow morning.

@cypresswolf !houstonbronies Blah. I'm tired already. Just about to take a nap while the convention is still setting up. Saw a bunch of great costumes, 1 Applejack among them walking around the Dealers room. Lost her in the crowd before I could ask for a picture. Gotta share this one with ya'll. While waiting for the dealer's room to open, the escalaters right behind me, the one coming down stopped while a guy dressed as a Storm Trooper was just stepping on. Poor guy had to traverse the stairs in that armor. He made it fine, and the whole 1st floor watching erupted into cheers as he made the final step off the escalator. That was awesome!

Oh well, waking up early aside, check this out - This year the Oni Dealers' Room will be over 21,550 square feet of wall-to-wall awesome. Our new space is super upgade from last year's 9,000 square foot Dealers' Room. Enjoy the rare and unique finds you will make as you shop with vendors from all over the country. Any convention goer is sure to find something just for them! LOCATION EXHIBIT HALL B HOURS Friday - 1:00pm - 8:00pm Saturday - 10:00am - 8:00pm Sunday - 10:00am - 6:00pm -------------------- SO MUCH SPACE! Looking forward to the rest of the events, I'll bet that concert hall is gonna be huge! Maybe I can actually get into the concert this time around.

@cypresswolf !houstonbronies Friday has finally arrived and Im going through emails this morning. I got one from family sharing a site called J-List and I'm checking that out this morning before heading to the convention. I found some pretty nice Strike Witches figures...Catgirls with Guns!...What's not to like?! I'll be looking for that series while I'm out today. Got some rain here last night, still windy outside. I woke up early enough to catch the sunrise over the beach this morning. I got my camera ready! Let the anime festivities begin!

!houstonbronies ^_^ It works! I got out of work a bit early today. I'm already here in Galveston staying at the Holiday Inn Resort. Anyone else staying Holiday Inn? In anticipation of the convention starting tomorrow, I'll be watching Hellsing & Outlaw Star tonight! The convention, I think opens at 9 or 10 tomorrow morning. I can't wait to see what the dealers room has to offer...and I'm hoping artist alley has a custom pony or at least some pony art! Rainbow Dash has something to say....RD, what are your thoughts on Oni Con this year? - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8JCX9E0bEI

!houstonbronies Ugh...today was just the slowest day so far....I swear, the closer thursday gets, the slower time ticks by. Only 3 days left til I leave for Oni Con. I need something to do! *stares at unfinished Roseluck custom* I'm bad at customizing....Paint has been done for a long time, the cutie mark however, well I gave up on the cutie mark. She's a blank flank. Rehairing will take some time. Especially for the mane.

!houstonbronies Now that I think about it, I could make one, a shadowbolt design would be nice.

!houstonbronies Anyone know if there are any pony hoodies sold in stores? I'd buy one online but it wouldn't arrive until after Oni Con.

!houstonbronies 5 days left to go. I just got all my mechanical stuff for the car done. All there's left to do is get a new hoodie and pack. Oh and rewrite my address list...can't find my original. I'll be leaving thursday right after work. So for everyone here attending, I hope to see ya'll there

!houstonbronies Manic Twilight screams new avatar. As awesome as Were-Lyra was, Chesire Twilight's smile & twitchy ear is just epic. I may go back and resize that to include her left ear. Also, I love how that bird is frozen with fear :3

!houstonbronies Ok I got a good video for a Love & Tolerate test for everyone. This was posted in this mornings Nightly Roundup post on Equestria Daily - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgFWtK2AoPk&lc=6qDPeD3L67R3CEXTIHJcXUXLEr83JyXSyZlsneZnyEU&feature=inbox - I got a great laugh out of this today and learned that we're not supposed to draw a hexagram on the floor with the mane six's cutie marks, get a sacrificial bowl of cotton candy and tray of cupcakes, and chant Giggle at the Ghostly trying to summon a talking pony to teach me about friendship. Who knew? I think Celestia would be proud of this lesson. Don't you? ^_^

!houstonbronies Houston has ghost tours in the historical district. Kemah & Galveston does as well. I'm planning to attend the one in Galveston while I'm there. You may want to look into something like that.

!houstonbronies I found this parody a while ago and I believe this should be ponified! For anyone who hasn't seen it, it's based on "going to the store". You'll have to watch it to understand. now onto the parody! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTzpZeBac6g&feature=channel_video_title

!houstonbronies Checking the update on Equestria Daily this morning, I found this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALtpxsgRCcQ - It's a tutorial on making pegasi wings & ears for cosplay. And guess who the model for this one is? Fluttershy! For all of you cosplayers out there who wanted to make a costume, this one's for you.

!houstonbronies For those that can make it to galveston, ya'll could spend the day at the convention hall. Friday or Saturday. Saturday will be the busiest day at the convention as its when most people show up, the down side, traffic. The address to the Galveston Island Convetion Center is 5600 Seawall Boulevard. I'm thinking we could meet out front of that convention center. I'm hoping the space will be like the George R Brown convention center, if so we can pick a spot inside to meet up. I haven't been there yet, I'm hoping to have a day to myself to go down & scout the area.

!houstonbronies Just got back from work, checking my list of websites for updates. I just checked youtube and found that Kyrospawn's DA has updated the pony soundboard. Here's the link for that - http://kyrospawn.deviantart.com/art/MLP-FIM-Soundboard-V6-0-244757196. Golyadkin, there are other houston meetups being planned. One is being planned for Oni-con in Galveston. If any one else plans to go, and have any ideas to contribute to making a meet up, post away on my board.

!houstonbronies the link doesn't go directly to the right board so click cosplay then find the my little pony topic on page 2 & there you go.
