I think I am going to have a crack at getting one of these from the UK by using a box forwarder.

That's because people used bots to buy out stock. With limits per household that NECA will impose, this shouldn't be an issue.

I normally have terrible luck at stuff like this because my web browser and internet service are both crap, but I have three chances so here's hoping I'll be able to snag one at least. Bummer you can't get the Alien, but I ain't complaining!

Hopefully we don't have to deal with bots for these pre-orders.

Are turtles actually up for sale for all 3 days; or is it a different exclusive each day? Assuming of course they aren't sold out sooner.

I'm not sure if you'll be able to grab one now but did you ever use BrickSeek? I snagged my set using the app! Pretty accurate too.

Well living in Canada 0 is the amount of these sets I will be getting. To bad because I really love the second tray and its baddies.

So these are going up on neca store for non-attendees sometime this month? Any estimated day yet, or is it going to be a random day scramble?

I think it was powder that said nobody on these forums bothers to read.
One page back and even four post up. For God's sake it's right there.

Where are you located?
I can try to get you a set. You will have to pay for shipping.

They will show up on ebay, just avoid overpriced sets.

I actually got a really good price on both my arcade sets on ebay, just had to wait for all the scalper prices to work there way out the listings. Think I ot them around August/september last year. I am willing to wait a few months to get a good deal.

All in all, I think the arcade sets are better, but I do like these, and I think I will them.
