The incredible booths of SDCC 2017
We take you inside the San Diego Convention Center to take a tour of the booths and some of the fun stuff you can do during the 48th edition of Comic-Con International.
Welcome to the booths of SDCC 2017
Here at the San Diego Comic-Con, there are more booths than you can shake a stick at -- assuming you can find space to shake a stick, that is.
Thor
He's a (Lego) brick Thor. He's mighty mighty. Seriously, though, these Lego sculptures are always quite impressive.
Flash
And if you're more of a DC fan than Marvel, there's this sculpture of the Flash. He's got some rock-hard abs. Well, plastic-hard.
DC
DC has a very cool booth.
Harley Quinn
This awesome Harley was made by Monster City Studios.
Marvel
Even on preview night, there were throngs of folks congregating near the Marvel booth.
Inhumans
A fun photo opportunity in the Marvel booth.
Mattel
The Mattel booth is showcasing a Batmobile!
The Batmobile
This ride is from the upcoming "Justice League" film.

Star Wars
The Star Wars booth -- it does seem a little quaint calling the humongous area "a booth" -- was packed to the gills with toys, replica weapons, helmets and, of course, tons of people.
Star Wars
You can take photos with original props used in "The Last Jedi."
Star Wars
Star Wars
Oh, and kid-sized Landspeeders. Did we mention those?
'People of Earth'
TBS sitcom "People of Earth," whose second season starts on July 24, had a pretty snazzy booth.
Konami
To remove the hordes of people usually checking out the Konami booth, just enter up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, Start.
Note: This may not actually work unless you are delirious from being on your feet all day.
Dark Horse
Dark Horse Comics, publisher of "Hellboy," "Sin City," "American Gods" and a bazillion other titles (yes, a bazillion; we counted) was there, hosting a number of signings with creators.
Alien attack!
CNET's Roger Cheng was attacked... c'mon, Roger, it just wants a hug!
Vintage comics
Obligatory "yes, and there are also comic books" joke goes here.
Lots of comics!
But really, lots and lots of comics.
Star Wars Sideshow
This booth always has great photo opportunities for fans!
K-2SO
CNET's Jeff Sparkman and Roger Cheng got to take a picture with K-2SO. K-2SO looks happy about that, doesn't he?
Star Wars Sideshow
Stormtrooper
You can go about your business. Move along. Move along.
R2-D2
The thing about droids is you can't always tell if they're sleeping or not.
Alex Ross
The extraordinary Alex Ross had a booth with lots of pieces of art on display.

Nickelodeon
Oh sure, Nickelodeon's got Spongebob stuff at its booth, but where's the love for "You Can't Do That on Television?" (Kids, ask your parents about it or check Wikipedia.)
The pineapple
Who lives in a pineapple at Comic-Con?
TMNT
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles always make skulking about look cool.
Viz Media
Viz, the home of many, many anime and manga characters, including One Punch Man, had this stunning booth on the floor.
Viz Media
Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds
An emotional experience for both Star Wars and Debbie Reynolds fans. This booth shows some items owned by both actresses.
Princess Leia
This Princess Leia prop was used during Fisher's comedy special on HBO, "Wishful Drinking."
The posters
You will find some amazing posters. More posters you'll want than you have walls to put them on, possibly.
Nuclear Blast
Among the other cool stuff at Nuclear Blast Records' booth: pinball!
Gentle Giant
Gentle Giant, home of amazing collectibles from your favorite properties. And a pretty dope-looking booth, to boot!
Outlander
The booth for Starz's show "Outlander," based on the best-selling book series by Diana Gabaldon is a little different from the average booth here, and that's pretty neat.
Hasbro
Hasbro had a mammoth booth area as well. Transformers, Star Wars, My Little Pony, you name the franchise and it was probably there.
Star Wars collection
This is a must-see. The Hasbro team made reenactments of some of the iconic scenes of "Episode IV."
The Millennium Falcon
'A New Hope'
Who shot first?
'Beauty and the Beast'
'My Little Pony'
The little ones can get their nails and makeup done in the Hasbro booth.
More booths
And keep in mind, this is just a sampling of the booths.
Give it a try!
I think the sword budged a little bit. Really!
Can you handle the hammer?
You can also prove how worthy you are by hefting Thor's hammer, Mjolnir.
Blitzway
This is a crazy detailed Millennium Falcon, which is "coming soon."
Blitzway
Blitzway
Sure, this Ecto-1 replica might be a little too big to display on your desk, but it still looks amazing.
Arcade
There's even a place where you can try playing Pit People, from The Behemoth, the developers behind castle Crashers and BattleBlock Theater.
Iron Man
Upper Deck Entertainment has a very cool Iron Man.
Capcom
Lots of video game opportunities at SDCC 2017.
Nintendo
You can pose with Mario at Nintendo's booth.
Blizzard
Not far from the Nintendo booth, Blizzard staked out a chunk of the floor to feature its popular games.

'Stranger Things'
Netflix's booth featured some of its original series. On Saturday, the company's "Stranger Things" will have a panel in the immense Hall H to talk about its second season.
History
This Vikings booth is an imposing structure on the floor.
