Other Outside Activations SDCC 2019

Here's all the other outside activations that we walked pass since the lines were way too long to get in. There was Adult Swim, FX Fearless Forum, South Park Mini Golf, AMC Deadquarters, Brooklyn 99 and more!!!

Detective Pikachu Activation Recap

The line was always long for the Detective Pikachu activation. We decided on one of the days to get in line there early instead of getting in line for the exhibit hall. It was pretty much just a walk through of the movie. At the end you get to spin a wheel to try and win prizes. You get something either way but if you landed on a yellow spot, you'd get the coveted Detective Pikachu ears and it has the little Detective hat too! You also got 2 plastic rings. If you landed on another color, you would get a Detective Pikachu comic book and 2 plastic rings.

FOX Fan Fair Recap

FOX Animation Domination Fan Fair was pretty neat. We saw them still setting up on preview night and testing the ferris wheel below.

Good Grief! Peanuts Pop-Up Gift Shop! Recap

Super7's Good Grief! Peanuts Pop-up Gift Shop during SDCC 2019 took place Friday evening until the end of SDCC. LOVE this pop-up event! Yes, there was another Snoopy/ Peanuts shop in the Gaslamp district which was opened throughout comic-con but this here is all about unique and awesome exclusives like no other. We were able to get a sneak peek (press preview) before the event opened later than night. Love the original '50 looks of Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the gang. They even painted the side of their building with Charlie Brown's Zig Zag shirt pattern.

Petco Interactive Zone SDCC 2019 Recap

The Petco Interactive Zone had quite a few activations inside. They had a Ripley's Believe it or Not Car Lot, Gundam, Carpool Karaoke, The Twilight Zone, Shark Week, Pepsi, Food Trucks, Impractical Jokers, Spongebob Squarepants

Shazam Chilladelphia Carnival Recap

The Shazam Chilladelphia Carnival was probably the quickest activation line. Basically you get a ticket and pick which game you want to play. If you win, you got a foam Shazam hand. If you lost, you got nothing.

Revenge of the Boodega Recap

Super7 brought the Revenge of the Boodega Pop-Up Store back to SDCC 2019 for a couple of days which meant brand new and exciting spooktacular Universal Monsters exclusives which you could only get at the Boodega which was located at their San Diego store which is a few blocks away from the convention center. The great thing about the pop-up shops is that you don't need a comic-con badge to attend.

2019 Dragon Ball World Adventure San Diego Recap

The 2019 Dragon Ball World Adventure was held at the Marriott Marina Terrace at the Marriot Marquis San Diego during SDCC. On preview night they held a Dragon Ball Guinness World Records Attempt and invited fans to participate. The World Record attempt was for the largest gathering of people simultaneously performing the iconic Kamehameha super energy attack move. If you didn't hear, they did get the Guinness World Record!!!

Amazon Prime Video Experience Recap

Amazon Prime Video Experience featured threes of their original shows, The Expanse, The Boys and Carnival Row. Upon entering the press/media preview we picked up our wrist bands and was handed a bag of coins/tokens. We were also offered a mini churros in a small take out box to eat too which was nice! They also had bottled water.

San Diego Comic Con 2019 Recap

This year marked the 50th year that San Diego Comic Con has been around. SDCC was held at the San Diego Convention Center in San Diego, CA on July 17th (preview night) to July 21st. Before SDCC started, if you were lucky enough to get a badge to attend, you would be lucky enough to participate in the SDCC Portal for exclusives and signings. This year they gave out an allotment of credits for each day that you had a badge for. From there you would select what you wanted and could use the amount allotted per day for exclusives etc... You could use 1 credit or multiple depending on what you wanted. Entering or using the credit doesn't guarantee that you will win anything no matter how many credits you decide to use. It's still a random lottery draw. A few days after the portal closes, SDCC lets everyone know if they got anything they entered for.
