    Do you any of you know if Rotofugi is going to give out numbered line tickets, like they did with Toy Karma?

    If the weather is complete crap I'll try to make it down early and give people line numbers so they don't have to freeze their asses off.

    Nope. We're open regular hours today ( 12-8 )...but only open from 2-3pm for the Gargamel Lucky Bag release tomorrow.

    I'll know today whether or not the actual lucky bags will be there or not (it's up to the USPS now)...but we'll be there doing a release whether we have them or not.

    Also, we're doing a Pre-Release of an unannounced Rotofugi Exclusive tomorrow as well...official full release and online will not be until the 5th, but those that come out tomorrow will be able to pick it up.

    I'll let you guys know what it is tomorrow when I get back from Roto.

    If the pre-release toy is something that I collect (and if can afford it after buying a lucky bag and Invisible Kaiju set :? ), I'll post some pics

    Kirby,

    What is the story with the version of Dream Rocket's "Doguma" in your avatar? I have never seen that colorway before, but it looks beautiful...

    I'm not a Cronic fan and I can safely say that those are pretty sweet. Rotofugi bringing some heat to the chilly Midwest!

    I love Nougakis. There's been some really nice ones recently that weren't too hard to come by.

    I just realized that I'm going to be in Chicago in about a week. Hope I can stop by the store.
