All I wanna know is...who is going to SDCC and what would it take to get them to pick up an extra one for me?

I should have somewhere in the neighborhood of 3,000 of them... so I can let one go (just for you, cuz you're a fellow Flynn Lives ARGer) for about $50.







Sheesh! Kidding! Not even going to SDCC. I went one year thinking beforehand it'd be cool to hang with some other geeks and realized that there are at least 5 million of people who are far geekier than I am. It was like ODing on geekdom, so I vowed that I'm done with conventions. I'll settle for the measured doses I get from the net.

This is kinda cute, from the Toy Newsi forums:

Since all these photos are being posted of Disney Tron tie-ins, I have a vacation photo from DisneyWorld from ~7 years ago when they were celebrating Mickey's 75th anniversary as memory serves. So they had 75 differently dressed statues of Mickey. One of them was in a Tron outfit. Naturally, I took several pics. Anyone interested in my posting?

TRON BOOTH?

I guess I knew where I'll be hanging out in my real world Flynn duds! (Almost done sewing the jacket.)


Also of note, that Tron disc someone posted a pic of is NOT a repackaged product. New mold, new replica.

I will be attending SDCC, barring disaster, and could feasibly try to get some of these (or other exclusives) for interested parties...

I haven't yet decided what my 'swag policy' is going to be yet, so that might have to wait a little... but likely, it'll be along the lines of:

1. After deciding what you want, you pay a reasonable estimate for all costs for the item(s) prior to SDCC. Most items will have listed prices... but sometimes, those prices change. Often, they're nudged up or down to account for CA sales tax, so the final number ends up as something more manageable.

2. I attempt to obtain what you've asked for. If unable, you get a full refund for any/all item(s) I can't get. Sometimes, lines for exclusives can be ludicrously long (don't EVEN get me started on Mattel), and at times, there's a raffle for the option to buy limited items (only about 1/3 or 1/4 of people will get the opportunity to buy on that day... it's one of the only fair ways to give everyone a shot at them). There are frequently quantity limits, too... one person can't buy more than, say, four of a given piece. If I have five interested parties, I can try to get a fellow line-stander to get one for me, but no promises. Regardless, I will make all reasonable efforts to get what you want, but can't make any promises.

3. Shipping will be calculated after SDCC. I pack everything up nice and safe, then send you the final bill for shipping, plus or minus any added charges or refunds due to unique convention variables. After recieving shipping payment, everything gets sent off! I'm willing to send to just about anywhere - including overseas - but I might need help in terms of filling out any unusual paperwork or in addressing the package properly, of course.

Look what I found. Damn I wish there was a way to cash in on this without the risk of the rat suing.

I'll definitely try and pick-up as many TRON toys as I can. Anything I have left over, I'll post it on here and it'll be a first-come, first-serve sort of a deal, and we'll figure out shipping and whatnot.

Like emeraldbeacon said, it's pretty much madness trying to pick-up exclusives at the con, the lines are just ridiculous. If it weren't for Preview Nights, I would probably have no chance of getting exclusives unless they were pre-ordered.

But yeah, just giving people a heads up and hopefully I'll have some extra toys to share on this forum!

how can we pre-order this stuff?
