Granite State Comicon 2026 - Day 2

Photo-A-Day #02805

Today was the last day of the convention. Eva went as Pony Boy from The Outsiders. They even made the shirt that Ponyboy wears in the movie. I was again Bobby Singer from Supernatural. I got a new verst and flannel for this year. Was as recognized as I was in past years but that is okay. I had kept my glasses on.

Cat Alley

We started our morning by going to The Bookery for breakfast. They have a small cafe inside. In the alley before the bookstore there is a bunch of cat themed murals. This is the cat alley. We could have gone over here yesterday and gotten hot dogs from a small place in this alley.

Transformers Pinball

Our first stop was the convention center. There are always a few vendors there and I was hoping at an author that I had met last year would be there again this year but they were not. I did get to play the new Transformers pin ball machine. That is a really nice machine.

Devastator

When we were done in the arena we went back to the hotel and went to the main vendor floor. There I saw a person in an amazing Transformers costume.We wandered the floor and made a few purchases. Eva caught up with their friends while I went over to the Armory. Over in the Amory I bought a comic and a few other things including a game for Andy and something for Andy's birthday. I sat in the lobby and read the book for a bit. Eva and friends came by. They said goodby to each other. Eva went off to get another piece of art that they had been eyeing and I went over to the Lou Diamond Phillips panel.

Lou talked about what it was like making one of the first biopics for a musician. He also talked about his career, what he is working on next and hinted at the possibility of a Young Guns Three.

After the panel Eva and I headed for Boston. We stopped for lunch and then I dropped Eva off at their dorm. Eva went inside and grabbed one of their friends, Antonio, who came out to help bring Eva's stuff into the dorm.It was tough to say goodbye again. Luckily Eva will be home in a few weeks for their birthday weekend.

Review: Lumibricks Izakaya Building ...

The folks from Lumibricks sent me their latest building set, the Izakaya for free to build and review. Opinions are 100% my own. I've built a few sets from Lumibricks (formerly FunWhole) in the past and they are really fun and interesting. The photo above is of the Izakaya and also The Apartment. they are both part of a Cyberpunk theme called Neoncity. At this time there are also two additional buildings that you can build and add to this whole theme, the Game Stack and the Floating Train Station. The great things about these sets is that they light up. As you build you are also adding lights and wires and ways to illuminate the amazing build. Once you're done building you fire up some power and the lights blaze up. With Neoncity sets you get some incredible Nenon effects light signs and even neon tube lights. That is one of the coolest things about these sets is how the lights are incorporated into the build. Some very innovative bricks were made in order to thread the wiring...

2025 Family Ornament ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02515 We put our tree up the other day and I had already bought the 2025 Hallmark Keepsake ornament for our yearly family photo ornament. I love these ornaments on the tree. We have them from 2005 to now.
