We’ve started a new, quasi-regular column on the Blog titled “Under The Tents”. The title is symbolic, as it’s representative of the times we all line up under the tents waiting for those big moments to happen inside Hall H or Ballroom 20.
Here’s the stuff you might have missed for today:
- There will be an exclusive trailer for The Hunger Games: Catching Fire at Comic-Con this year, according to this tweet from Film Trailer editor Jake Thomas.
[UPDATE] This tweet was removed, and is believed was a fake. However, it is expected The Hunger Games: Catching Fire will have a Hall H panel this year, possibly on Thursday. Stay tuned for official announcements.
- SpankyStokes has the scoop on an exclusive Ferg x Grody Shogun “Young Gohst” edition:
A big bag of crystal clear sofubi cast “Young Gohst” figures, Ferg‘s collaboration with Luke “Grody Shogun” Rook… what could they be for? According to Ferg, he’s going to paint them himself for a micro edition release at the 2013 San Diego Comic-Con!
Check out the image of the unpainted “Young Gohst” micros and a prototype on the SpankyStokes site.

Grrr…
The Furyan…
