This is going to be a bit bias but I absolutely loved the food trucks that Wondercon had parked by the entrance. The vendors ranged from desserts like ice cream sandwiches to burger and grilled cheese.
I chose to go with Spudrunners who specialized in the art of grilled cheese and gourmet fries. Among their many choices, I picked the pulled pork sandwich and was blown away by how sweet and savory it was. Admittedly, I kept coming back to the truck for the same sandwich all weekend but could not resist.
Friends whose willpower was stronger than mine had nothing but great things to say about the other vendors! For many costumers, California is the big leagues for cosplay culture due to Anime Expo , San Diego Comic Con , and Blizzcon taking place in the state.
Wonder Con was no different as many folks brought out their latest and greatest costumes to exceed what they had done at the previous convention. We got the chance to interview some great cosplayers like Mysterious Ways Cosplay , Tank Smile , and a cosplaying couple who did Spike and Faye! The guests were fantastic and so worthwhile, Wondercon featured Chad Hardin , Jim Lee , Marguerite Sauvage , Gerard Way , and so many more influential folks in the comic book industry!
The amount of vendors at Wondercon was overwhelming to say the least. Every single artist had such incredible work that had me whipping out my wallet far too much! One of the vendors I adored was Super Emo Friends which is an artist who specializes in taking prominent characters and displaying them being sad about some aspect of their life for the sake of comedy.
It was such a great idea! Another booth I enjoyed was hosted by Cosplay Melee which is a show on Syfy showcasing the talents of various cosplayers. They set up a cosplay repair station chalk full of tools to help repair costumes that was well used and well staffed!
Lastly, I always love coming by the Capcom booth to check out the gamers duking it out on Street Fighter V! A good amount of con goers could not resist stopping in their tracks to watch two skilled fighters battle it out on the big screen! I have to agree with my peers that Wondercon at the Anaheim convention center is pretty amazing. Although I did enjoy myself in , I had a lot more fun this year. The entrance of Wondercon had a long stretch of land that was perfect for the food trucks, the pathways in between building offered precious sunlight and shade for photo shoots, and there were so many great places on site to have as back drops for costumes.
On a serious note, it was a great location that many folks felt comfortable walking up and walking the sidewalk without fear of being robbed. The staff of Wondercon did everything in their power to help out convention goers and constantly checked props for safety. While this might seem annoying for some, I appreciate all the effort they went through because it gave me peace of mind that anything even remotely dangerous at least had a difficult time making it through due to the constant checks at badge readers.
Wondercon was such a great convention that it very well may be the shining moment of my entire year. Everything from the guests to the cosplay and the vendors make it great. I applaud the organizers of Wondercon for all their hard work. I loved every single aspect of the trip and convention. My only regret si that I was unable to do more but will make every effort to race around attending all of the events next year!
