I may actually end up going.  Be crazy, I end up making the trip, paying for gas, hotel, eating and all that, and the exclusives be sold out before I get there, before the general admission Saturday.

With this year's exclusives you can be assured that there will be nothing left by Saturday.

Dial Tones are probably already gone.

Yeah, I could save money and just pay double for the stuff on ebay.  But I'll end up paying triple or more to go and not get them.  Still, it's within driving distance and I would like to dig through those bins and all that.  I'd like to get Mr. Hama's autograph for a friend of mine.  Kinda weird, all the exclusives selling out before the general admission even starts, something wrong with that.

Yeah, carded ones are sold out.

Apparently the run on the bagged ones was somewhere around 1500, so I'm sure they'll be available for quite a while

I thought the bagged dial tones had sold out a couple weeks ago.  Were there more brought to the con?

I'll have to track down a Stinger and a Mocassin for my vintage collection, I think they look great!

Contrary to some organizers public statements, they love selling out before the general public even enters.  It means selling out their stock and making their money without having to worry about sitting on product and transporting it back to storage.
