 Bandai Entertainment Model
Contest: Contestants signed up
to build a model in less than 60 minutes and win some prizes. Signups began in the
Bandai Shop and the activity kept going well into the night! |
Raffle Prizes Galore: All registered MFA:02 attendees were eligible
for raffle prizes sponsored by Bandai, like toys, model kits, manga, and lots more.
Pretty cool way to get a chance to walk away with more than just your own shopping bags! |

| Portal 1 Gaming: That's right, games everywhere, from RPGs to
consoles to arcade to Dance Dance Revolution! All under one roof and it didn't even
have to be a con! |
Portal 1 Party Tunes: All the hip music was supplied by SNM
Productions: DJ Muteki, DJ MOD, and DJ Socket, those awesome guys who've supported numerous
cons throughout the years and never fail to keep the beat going all night long. |
