Kind of a noob question, but is there a list somewhere of all the signings that aren't through the SDCC lottery portal?  The only one I'm aware of is The Walking Dead (which I'm not sure how to try for).


I got nothing through the lottery and now I'm seeing a ton of posts on FB of people who got stuff they didn't want, trying to trade for other stuff. :(

For The Walking Dead, you need to go through the booth experience and then pull a ticket at the end. The earlier you go the better, because they just throw the losers back in the bag. I have never won but I did see two people winning last year.

Missed this with all the info that's been flowing through today, but according to SDCC's Unofficial Blog updated Voltron info, seems like the Limited Tickets will be done the normal way like in years past.

Maybe this is an exception.  Maybe SDCC will change their minds later.  But for now, this gives us some insight that the Autograph system will be in place for only the big booths signings and not for Limited Signings in the Sails.

Update on Voltron guests at the signing

I have a question around the exclusive signings. My friend won Krypton signing this year and had to go to Sails in the morning to get a special wristband showing ID, badge and confirmation. My question is if I didnt win a signing for 2019 but wanted to go to one could i buy the signing off someone and have them come to sails with me in the morning and have me get the wristband instead of them (they say please give this person the wristband here's my confirmation etc). Its nice getting a signed poster but i want to be the one getting it from the people rather than them selling it to me after the signing.

If you did not get the lottery pick, then some of the signings will still allow wristbands on a first come basis after the allotted lottery times.

No they aren't transferable.  They could try and remove the wristband and give to you but even that they try and make it tight so you won't be able to do that.

They put on the wristbands pretty tight to prevent that.  I asked that they not put mine on so tight so they backed off a bit.  It was still pretty tight.  The wristband I got was also very stiff, not like one of the stretchy ones you might be able to wiggle out of.  It was more like a handcuff.

But what they will do, and I have done it before, is put the wristband on someone else who is with you in line. You just say, you can't be there but your cousin (or whomever) can.

I guess it's up to the person putting on the wristband.  When I got mine someone else asked if they could do that and they said the person who got the wristband had to match the name on the list.  They asked for ID.

I have a question: is there anyone here who entered who had a guest badge registration and thus didn't have their registration linked to their ID? I'd like to know if you were still able to enter any of the lotteries.

Do you mean like a guest to a Professional badge?

If so I went as a guest to a Professional last year and was able to enter the lotto

Looks like WonderCon has implemented a point system for the number of drawings you can enter per day.

The bad: a limit to the number of signings you can enter

The good: you can enter one drawing multiple times until your point allotment is spent!
