I love the looks of the water bottle and the necklaces, & I'll be anxious to see what the T-shirts will look like.:)

I also think the sewing kits are a VERY clever idea. :thumbup:

those are pretty cool looking. i hope there are some actual guitar picks like that without a hole punched in them too (to be used as a guitar pick, instead of as a necklace or keychain)

Unfortunately, they had to be ordered by the gross, either the entire gross punched, or the entire gross not punched. After a discussion, we decided that people were unlikely to want to pay what we would have to charge for a single, unpunched pick, and we focused our money and attention on the jewelry.

The company that makes them did assure me that since we chose a thicker pick, they still could be used for playing, as long as you don't go crazy with them.

Will there be pins again this year? I try to buy a pin every year I attend.

[color:red]06[/color], [color:green](I am missing 07 :/ )[/color] [color:blue]08 I have a button pin (though I would have preferred a fancy one..)[/color] [color:purple]09[/color], [color:orange]'10[/color].

They have really cool designs and I think it's something nice and small to collect for each year :)

We will definately have both the pins and our limited edition buttons. For some years or designs, we still have leftovers from years past available. 2008, I believe, was the ocean theme, and we did sell out that year.

Awesome :) I'll be sure to stop by to pick one up at the beginning of the con. Yea, 08 was the ocean theme. The button pin I have is darkblue with "Anime Boston 2008" and a seahorse on it :)

I'm wishing I had gotten a shot glass last year(to make a set), but I will definitely be picking one up this year. The art is absolutely adorable.

Also, those guitar pick earrings... :) Awesome idea.

I can't wait to see this year's t-shirt design. ^^

Yeah, I still regret not getting a water bottle last year. I suppose I'll have to start collecting this year instead, as I'm pretty sure they sold out completely last year.

Both our water bottles and our shot glasses sold out before the close of day on Saturday. I have upped the order on both, but I assume they'll still be popular. Water bottles will be available at our reg booth on Thursday night, as well as Friday and Saturday morning, until sold out. Consider coming by and seeing us there!

When we received our second order of picks, there were a small number that did not get drilled. It is a very small number, but if anyone wants a blue A-Chan pick to use for musical purposes, we may be able to assist you. 8)

Ironically I bought the last water bottle. I didn't know it was the last one until another person asked right next to me for one. I felt bad : /

I am looking forward to this years merchandise~
