This will take place at Giant Robot this December, 2008. This will be a much more mellow event, with no lines and an all new focus to keep things fun for all and sad for none! We’re super excited about this one! And can you believe we’re actually planning now for Uglycon 2009? It’s in LA and we can’t say where.
