Damn! I hope your wrong. Might be for the better if it did though. My wallet just bit my hand.

Yeah I mean I sent a few to Hank during the event but I didn't bother taking "good" pics since I saw so many other camera's going. There were 120 toys and 2 2d pieces 1 by Bwana and 1 by David and Sun-Min. It was an overload for sure!

The thing is, is I was focused on getting my top choices so I didn't look too closely at the other figures. Then when I lucked out and got them I was looking closer at the rest and noticed so many little things I didn't the first time. I think we all circled the gallery like 15 times just staring. There was glitter flake vinyl on a bunch that you couldn't just see until you got up close with the figure, not just gold flake, but some kind of clear with a smaller amount of silved flake and some seemed blue with flake, I dunno. I could have looked at every single toy there for a while longer and still not get bored.

Here's a video someone took, Roto had it on their Twitter. Sorry for not giving credit to the director, I don't know who did it.

We just posted an update on how the "preview" for out-of-towners is going go here:

Gargamel Exclusives & Preview News

Thanks again to everyone who came, helped out, hung out and generally made last night an amazing experience. Of course, most of all we owe Gargamel a huge debt of gratitude...and Kiyoka and Koji especially for making the long trip out for the opening.

MeanMisterT's Top 10 Chi-town Trip List

1. Meeting way more cool 'brainers than I ever expected in one night, along with the courteous Roto crew... even Kirby! :twisted: Fugi was the greatest as we chilled on the couch together for 20 minutes or so, because I was really homesick missing my 2 mini Schnauzers at the time. Hanging out with Bill, the vog_islander, meeting Minh, lurkin' Chad of MW fame, the damaged B, "he who is unpronounceable" aka sbbbennxqqhhcs (thanks for the donut holes), Jeff the drinker of blood & 3rd most hardcore, stealthy Scott, magillagorilla: I didn't know that was you... apologies to you & everyone else that I forgot to mention/meet.

2. The humble yet talented Kiyoka & Koji of course...

3. Seeing & being in my 1st real snow EVER, swirling all through the 6 corners... amazing

4. Eating some real Chicago deepdish, beer batter deep fried bacon & bacon-wrapped dates from Paddy Long's HUGE portions!!!

5. Numerous free cab services provided by the granola-toting Mary.... er, I mean Virginia :wink: seriously, that was super nice of you.

6. The customs... countless & spectacular! More Miborae assembled together at one time since the factory, or even Mark's collection :P

7. DJ played nice tunes all night & special requests

8. Hospitality. No cops hassled us as we camped out for well over 12 hours & a number concerned passers-by tried to give us assistance, jackets... a couple of happy bar-hoppers brought us a burrito on their way back, etc.

9. The new Roto location is as near perfect as one could ask for: well-lit open space w/ ancient hardwood floors, this place has fucking character!

10. I didn't freak out whilst flying... I hate planes.

The weather luck we had was insane too. It was raining and colder yesterday and now it's 40 mph winds with snow non-stop all day and dropping fast. Friday couldn't have been better.
