Rarest Comic Con & E3 Promos?

[JRPGFan]

What are some of the most desirable promo items from places like in Comic Con, E3 and other places like that?

Also, does anyone else get annoyed that places like these doesn't have an online store for some these promos or do you like it because it makes them more collectible? Just your 2 cents on this.

Thanks

Good question. I'm interested to see what others have to say on this. There's loads of limited items (many with, say, 200 - 500 produced). Not sure what would be the rarest though.

I have no idea about rarest, but I do agree that they should be made more widely available. Con passes are getting harder and harder to get and with that the overpricing of collectibles are rampant. I would love to see what others think though.

At sdcc last year the metal gear solid iPhone 5cases where very limited (20 units) selling out instantly

The older e3 stuff and limited item...the rarest and harder to pop out and find it...

Well desirability is a personal thing, what I think is desirable may not be to someone else.

The Red MGS SDCC exclusive Cyborg Ninja figure is very desirable to me, and kind of pricey, also as ouroboros said the iphone case would be nice. I have a VIP booth badge from the 2011 SDCC Mass Effect 3 booth that must be quite rare, plus some SDCC limited lithos (limited to 100 signed copies)

The fact that these cons are now overly commercialised, and that most of the limited stuff is probably bought by scalpers does piss me off.....But what ya gonna do huh?

Yeah, it pisses me off too. Was a pain in the ass trying to get the SDCC Bronze Normandy models. >.< Paid nearly 100GBP for the SR-2 and I bought 2 of them. >.< 1 for me and 1 for my GF. The SR-1 wasn't too bad though, got both of those for $75 each plus p&p.
