Today was the first day of Mad Monster Party in Charlotte, North Carolina.
The convention was jam-packed with happy convention goers. Haruo "Mr. Godzilla" Nakajima had a steady stream of autograph-seekers. He signed photos, CDs, DVDs, laser discs, LPs, toys, posters and many other kinds of Godzilla and other kaiju memorabilia.
I sold several copies of
The Monster Movie Fan's Guide To Japan. As predicted, the Nakajimas sold out the copies of his autobiography,
Kaiju Life, pretty quickly. One of which went to Sean Linkenback.
To give you an idea of what the day was like, here's some photos:
