Screw grab bags. I got one and one of the item was opened. lol

According to this thread the only one that is worth getting is the Yaoi-Con one.

I got a grab bag from Anime Palace yesterday. It had a plushy from Vampire Knight, an Angel Sanctuary clock, a very small Gloomy bear figure, and also a tiny unknown figure. So it wasn't bad...I do love Vampire knight

I got a VK grab bag from Lolita Kisama on Friday -- there was a totally weird Ed Hardy-ish cap on top so we thought it was filled with just crap but it also came with prayer beads, a black tie with red skulls, a blue afghan with black skulls, and a small messenger bag, so while I didn't get anything I actually wanted, it wasn't a bad deal.

I think it just depends on where your buying it from.
I have gotten some really good stuff once, and
yes another time gotten some shitty stuff.
It's anime gambling!

I've never and will never buy a grab back from any dealer at the con or anywhere else. If I see them I laugh and quickly walk away. Not only will you 99% of the time never get what you want (but still pay about the same price) but there is also a HIGH chance of getting damaged, shady, and rip-off items.

If I can give advice to anyone who attends the con, it is do not EVER buy a grab bag. Ever. From anyone. No matter what.

If I remember correctly, from my grab bag in '10 I got a FLCL barbie thing of Haruko but it looks kinda creepy to me and I'm still trying to sell it D:
an XXL shirt of Digicharat :/ I'm 114lbs adult smalls are sometimes too large for me even if I'm 21. A key chain from advent children, Loz, I watched it but I'm not a fan of Loz.  I forgot the rest. Overall, I gained nothing.

Aww...I've never seem to be able to get anything good in a grab bag; maybe once from Lokisa. We once got a grab bag from one of the Manga vendors and everyone of them were either in Japanese or Chinese Characters.  :(. Worst part, they were Mangas I've never heard of.

I personally love the grab bag Items.
My Fiance asked me "What's a Grab-bag?" My reply "F-ing Amazing! Weird S__t everywhere.!"

I wasn't disappointed in the least.
