The picture thread made Me think....every year someone puts up a thread on what everyone scored...Lets have it guys...What did you buy there? You guys at home can play too, what did people get for you?????

I just stuck to the convention stuff. I got the set with my ticket, the driver, the comic, and all that. I also grabbed the 3 pack, the mech, and a skybat. I won one of the MOTH sets (the arctic set) and also a print for the new Resolute cartoon signed by the people doing the show. I picked up some of the Annika figures from SpyLounge and got some berets from Marauder. Not a ton of items, but a lot of cool stuff.

Beyond that I got to meet a lot of the people from the list. That was great too and I'd count that as "con hauls". It's always fun to meet people that you talk to for years but haven't ever met them face to face.

What the.......!?!?!? Uhm, that's like quite a lot!

Tim 121RVC

Not really, they had a limit on us on Thursday/ friday,. but saturday morning all hell broke loose!!!!

....but then again, all the money he spent could be eaily recouped on ebay. Most con stuff is going for twice the con price...

...makes me rethink keeping my skybats....

_________________

Actually the trick is to bring someone else with you to register. My dad is a 12" collector but he doesn't care for the 12" sets so he's a good sport every year and picks up one of every 3 3/4" item for me. Thant means I can always double up on the attendee exclusive too.
