Howdy, lovers and fighters! We’ve got silent auctions ending in about two hours, so here’s an update for those who may not be in the know:
This print of Persona 4’s punny comic relief will fight for a place on your mantle and in your heart. Seriously, it’s adorable—check it out!
With this stylish cap, you will be the one who decides what the fox says. Knitted by Tania Richter, it’s fashionable and functional and sure to keep you warm all winter.
Holy mother of bus, these guys are adorable. These miniature dice dragons are made in the Desert Bus colors and will be the perfect companions during your next D&D campaign. With them, you’ll have the confidence and good luck to pass all your checks and go critical on every hit you make. They’re so cute you’ll be unstoppable!
This is a big ticket item, folks. The fine folks at MomoCon donated this copy of the Matrix script used at a reading by Dante Basco, Maurice Lamarche, Tress Macneile, Jess Harnell, Rob Paulsen, and Randy Rogel. If you caught their hilarious rendition of everyone’s favourite bullet-time movie, you’ll want this signed script!
We’re all incredibly humbled and overjoyed to be a part of this next giveaway item. Our very own photographer extraordinaire Andrew has worked tirelessly this past year to put together a gorgeous photo book of last year’s Desert Bus moments, and it’s been signed by all the drivers and volunteers who were there along the way! This professionally printed book will be a treasured piece of memorabilia and is one of only three copies on Earth—no more will be printed.
How can you get a chance to obtain this incredible set of memories? Donate $8.22 or any multiple thereof for the next 45 minutes, until 12am, and you will be entered for a chance to win this book! Every multiple of $8.22 is an entry, so donate however much you want!
BUT THAT’S NOT ALL! If you don’t win this donation drive, don’t despair; a smaller, softcover version of the Desert Bus 7 book will be available for preorder on the LoadingReadyRun store starting on Monday. The unsigned softcover will only be available for preorder during Desert Bus, and a portion of all proceeds will be donated straight to Child’s Play/Desert Bus. But if you want the hardcover SIGNED edition, donate away!
Any second now we will be auctioning off this frankly intimidating Stuffed Head of Drogon! You won’t want to miss a chance to mount one of the Mother of Dragon’s children on your wall—it’s a prize worthy of any dragon hunter.
Auction begins at 11pm!
So, let’s recap the last 8 hours or so, shall we?

Wizards of the Coast is a company that hardly needs introduction. The force behind titanic fantasy franchises Magic: The Gathering and Dungeons & Dragons, the latter of which launched its much anticipated 5th edition earlier this year!
We are honored to have Wizards of the Coast as a sponsor this year. They have donated a cache of prizes fit for a king this year, including, but not limited to: three Khans of Tarkir t-shirt packs, a SDCC Planeswalkers + Garruk’s Axe package, the “You could probably be playing more Magic” lot, the D&D starter set, and three rare Magic uncut foil sheets!
Thanks WotC!
