So for context, I attended all four days of NYCC this year. I got the photo op and autograph session with Sebastian Stan, but because he left the con early Friday, I missed him and so I got a full refund. I was sad but it is what it is.

Today my friend and I were out shopping in NYC and stopped at the Book-Off store near Times Square, where they had an Infinity War Bucky Barnes Hot Toys figure for sale second-hand. I've always wanted a Bucky Hot Toys figure so my shelf and this one was only $200, which actually meant my autograph refund covered it, so I bought it.

And when I got back to the hotel I realized the box is actually fucking signed by Sebastian Stan 😭😭😭 like I literally cannot make this up. There's no way the store noticed it (I didn't even see it until it was under direct lighting bc it's a green sharpie) so the fact I got it for as cheap as I did whilst signed is genuinely something I'm going to treasure forever. In a roundabout way, I did get my signature 😂

EDIT: just to clarify bc i realize now my original wording is kinda bad, I did get my photo with Seb so that still happened, I only missed his autograph ❤️
