Declassified is the only other one I know of right now beside Joecustoms, but they are still in the process of lining up sponsors and attendees, so that could change.

Seriously, if you want to go to a nice, affordable, GI Joe show Assembly Required fits the bill. Unlike other, larger GI Joe conventions, AR is about celebrating everyone's favorite Real American Hero and not about milking a cash cow. I see more kids having fun and participating in events than I have at any Joecon, and it's good to see someone trying to keep GI Joe alive for younger generations.

A few more updates as we march onward to November 8th.

*There are a few delaer tables remaining for $60 each, if you are interested email the organizers at hq@codenameiowa.com but don't delay.

*There will be custom contests in the following categories:
12"
3 3/4", 4",1/18 scale, Leatherneck scale
Vehicles
Kre-O

*The raffles are near legendary, and if you buy tickets you have a really good chance of scoring a prize or two. Last year's grand prize was a MIB WHALE.

*If you are coming from out of town there is a special AR rate at the nearby Hyatt:

There are a limited number of reserved rooms available at the Downtown Des Moines Hyatt Place for a discounted rate. You may place reservations by clicking http://www.desmoines.place.hyatt.com/en ... _id=G-ASRQ or calling their Central Reservations office (1-800-634-3839) or the hotel front desk (515-282-5555). Simply ask for the “Assembly Required Group Block” or provide them the unique group code of “ASRQ”. Reservation cutoff date is 10/7/14.

This event has grown every year, if you long for the days when a GI Joe convention was about celebrating GI Joe and not trying to turn a buck, this show is for you.

reserving room. just a heads up, if you are getting a room for Friday and Saturday both, it looks like it might be cheaper to skip the group discount code. run it both ways to be sure

The details aren't posted yet, but in years past with the custom contests the entries are set up in the morning and are assigned a number. Everyone who attends get a vote for each of the categories.

As far as rules the contests are for one figure/vehicle each, up to two entries per category. The Kre-O contest can use Lego/Mega Bloks, etc. but must have Kre-O figures in the display.

We're 11 days out from AR, and in addition to all of the FREE events planned for Assembly Required on November 8th, Joecustoms will be doing a customizing panel! If you ever wanted to see techniques on painting, torso cracking, or general customizing, or were curious to see just how dead-sexy pluv is in person, now's your chance!
