00:00Hey guys, Martin Rodriguez here. We got Wendy behind the camera.
00:03Hi guys.
00:04Yep, and we're back at the BN Comic Con.
00:06As you guys know, it's like three times a year.
00:08This is the first time I've been playing.
00:09We're gonna check out all the cosplays, all the cool stuff.
00:12But right now, we're really gonna go like our first stop to try to find those special glasses that we
00:17got.
00:18The Big O' Fury one, the Neo Geo one.
00:20It actually looks like right here.
00:22Oh yeah.
00:23It's not the same standard or not, but we're gonna check it out.
00:25Yeah, alright. Let's go.
00:27Alright guys, so here we got super retro games.
00:30We got Tiger Coins.
00:31Here's the actual Tiger one.
00:32Street Fighter 1 and Thunder Blade.
00:35But this Konami TMNT 2 Switch of Speed.
00:39I remember those.
00:40I remember Street Fighter 2.
00:42I just don't know if they...
00:44I mean, but they still work because they're so old.
00:45And we got these books on how to win a Nintendo game.
00:48I remember those back in the day.
00:51Oh man, they're all good.
00:52Oh, Diddy Kong Racing!
00:53Oh yeah, Diddy Kong Racing.
00:55I think I might sell my cop hit it.
00:57Hmm.
00:58I wonder how much these are going for.
01:01And if they still work right.
01:03Because you know, these are old.
01:05Alright guys, we got a TotalGrab 16 game on here.
01:08And I don't know if that's the actual console.
01:10Because I've never seen...
01:11Well, I've seen it once or twice.
01:13But I don't know if that's the original or the mini.
01:25This is Double Dragging.
01:27But like for the...
01:28For the what?
01:29Oh!
01:29The Sega Master System.
01:31We got Alien Syndrome.
01:33We got...
01:33Yep, there it is.
01:34The Sega Master System.
01:50Yeah, and it looks like it's more faithful to the arcade.
01:52Instead of like, you know, how the Nintendo one did it.
01:57Yeah, we got both Billy and Jimmy to play arcade action and stuff.
02:01And he said this is Lester the Unlikely for Super Nintendo.
02:05Yep.
02:06Oh man.
02:08The fact that someone actually has this game.
02:10Yeah.
02:12Alright guys, one of the things that this con usually has are these cool cars.
02:15They're always kind of modeled or themed after certain characters or properties.
02:19So this is a Transformers type car here.
02:23I just can't tell like, exactly which Transformer character.
02:27And then we got one based on Storm, I guess.
02:30Storm from the X-Men maybe?
02:32There's Storm on there.
02:34Oh yeah, there she is.
02:35There she is.
02:36Right there.
02:36Oh, and we got Wolverine there too.
02:39So that's pretty cool.
02:42That really is Pip-My-Ride.
02:44Right there to like the next level.
02:46And then we got one based on like, football.
02:50Eagles.
02:52Philadelphia Eagles.
02:53So there you go.
02:56Yeah.
02:56Pretty awesome.
03:00Guys, we got another car here.
03:02I just, sorry guys, I'm not familiar with all like the old, you know, real old TV shows.
03:07I'm not really sure what TV series or what movie or what this car is referencing.
03:14Oh, where is it from?
03:14Starsky and Hutch.
03:15Oh, Starsky and Hutch.
03:17Okay.
03:18Oh, there you go.
03:18I thought it looks familiar.
03:21It's pretty cool.
03:22Alright guys, so here's everyone lining up for the contest here.
03:27We got a cosplay contest every year and you get cool trophies.
03:31So is this person cosplaying with like a big piece of bacon?
03:34Yeah.
03:36Hey, everyone loves bacon.
03:37There you go.
03:38Oh man.
03:40Oh man.
03:40We got all some of the people we've seen here.
03:43You'll see them in photos.
03:44We got photos of like Darth Vader and we got all these other people.
03:47We got the Sub-Zero guy that we've seen.
03:49Yeah.
03:50And everyone's just, yep, everyone's lining up.
03:58And we'll see, you know, who's going to be the lucky winner this year?
04:02Who's going to win the trophies and the bragging rights of best cosplay for the year?
04:07So let's check it out.
04:12One of the good parts is also trying to get cool comics for cool deals.
04:16And we got a good one here.
04:18Wendy, show off the thing there.
04:19We got Batman and Huntress, like the whole six part story.
04:23We don't have to be like, you know, hunting down all the issues or whatever.
04:26So that's pretty cool.
04:29Oh, and also Dark Shadows, which is based on the, you know, old show.
04:33The old 60s show.
04:34Yeah.
04:35But unfortunately it's only number four.
04:37I wish I had one, two, and three at least to go with that.
04:40Yeah.
04:40No Johnny Depp in this one.
04:47All right, guys.
04:48Here's our last stop.
04:48Like I said, we were definitely going to come here to pint-sized Pixels.
04:53They got these cool glasses here.
04:55And Wendy's kind of making her mind up here which one's exactly she's got or which one she wants.
05:01We already got four, right?
05:03Yeah, there's four.
05:03We're going to try to stop at four.
05:05Yeah.
05:05Because this is like awesome.
05:06Stuff on all kinds of video games and series and animes, movies, comic books.
05:11It's awesome.
05:12Where are you guys located anyway?
05:14Richmond.
05:15Oh, okay.
05:16Like downtown Richmond?
05:17Chesterfield.
05:18Okay, so yeah.
05:19So if you guys are in Chesterfield, Richmond, definitely check out pint-sized Pixels.
