First Guest Announcement

We hope you are as excited as we are – we have our first guest announcement for Animazement 2012. This guest has never been to Animazement before, so we hope everyone has some of his anime to bring to the con for him to sign. What should you bring, you ask? We’d recommend to bring your “Macross” DVDs or maybe “Megazone 23″ or even “Be Forever Yamato”.

Still not sure who our first guest is? Check out our Guest page for the big news.
