NYCC 2019 Thursday Gallery By FirstPerson Shooter, Part 1
Like last year, Thursday tickets were still available during part of the day on the first day of New York Comic Con 2019. I heard that tickets did eventually sell out that day, but the crowd sizes should have been like last year — not too bad. Unfortunately, the steady light rain all day drove all the people that might otherwise be outside taking or getting photos into the Jacob Javits Center, making for one of the most packed Thursdays I’ve ever seen at NYCC.
The fact that construction was still ongoing on the expansion at what use to be the North Pavilion, and this year’s Thursday seems almost like a Saturday. I did hear that the expansion will be completed before next year’s NYCC, so that means more room for the crowds … or more tickets to be sold and same size crowds (bet on the latter).
I set up in the seating area near the Starbucks on the 2nd floor like usual, and managed to work around the massive crowds. Mind you, this was after a 5+ hour trip down from Massachusetts, that started with two hours of picking up team members, so I was up at 3:15 a.m. That seems to be turning into a Thursday trend for NYCC, even though our initial plans were to leave Wednesday. Oh well, next year.
Cosplayers in this first of two Thursday galleries include Stephanie Stone Cosplay, codenamecitadel, thewolfweeb, purziankat, filthycosplayer, Not Quite Done Yet Cosplay, Natalia Anne Cosplay, ribunbun, imrjae, kosherkosplays, paladinofstars, Chocobobutt, zoevolf, somesayimmodest, _.catalyst._, kenya_g.love, amazon_cosplayer, tinysithassassin, and many more.
We now use Smugmug to present cosplay photo galleries and will post all photos there, with a link to each gallery in its own gallery article. This will allow us to give you higher resolution images to download — still for free.
To view the entire gallery, just click on the image below. If you are pictured in any of our galleries, feel free to download the images and use them non-commercially on social media, with appropriate credit.
