San Diego Comic Con: Friday Night/Morning
In case you’re wondering why items are sold out after 30-minutes like the Webarella Monster High doll … here’s the world’s largest sleepover … 2 AM Friday night/Saturday early morning – the line has already STARTED to get IN – when the doors open at 9ish … 7 HOURS later … so it’s no wonder if you show up at even 5 AM, you are a few thousand back …
(And in the specific case of Webarella – Kevin NASCARBronco is just picking up his pre-orders that he placed for customers who pre-ordered with him … as the only way to get in the short Mattel line everyday is to be in line hours before the Sun even thinks about rotating around … so now, you just have to decide to time your eBay purchase … is the frenzy now? Will prices stabilize as those holding extras arrive back home to post and ship? Wait another few weeks? Or months? … Ah, the twisted and winding road of supply & demand. Good luck!)
Thanks for the update, Kevin NascarBronco!
I have extra battlestar galactica ships, Atari beach bomb pickups and A Team Vans.

Ugh. None of these toys is worth the hassle of having to stay and sleep in line overnight. When you think about the cost and hassle that these people go through, it is well worth the markup on ebay. That is what I did for the only SDCC item I wanted this year, the GIJoe/Transformers set.
Kevin does a great job. I am getting 3 for my family members. not taking any chances that Matty will have extras for sale.
