Shewie Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Wow this will be going like crazy on ebay for 10x RPP at least. Amazing little diorama, significantly better than the one last year, sadly it's only available in USA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shewie Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Rules This random drawing is for a chance to get a ticket to purchase items at the LEGO booth. Attendee & Professional badges only. No Exhibitors. One application per person only. Attendees will not be permitted to attend more than one ticketed session at the LEGO booth during the event You must have a valid Star Wars Celebration Orlando 2017 badge for any days you select. No exceptions. We will be checking your badge confirmation to ensure that if you win the lottery for a specific day, you have a badge for that corresponding day. Tickets are awarded randomly for a specific date and time and must be redeemed for that specific session only. No exceptions. Tickets are not transferrable and ID will be checked. You must bring your ticket to the LEGO booth to be scanned at the time of your session. You will not be allowed to purchase exclusives without your lottery ticket. There will be a strict limit of one of each item per ticket. You will not be able to line up at the LEGO booth before your session begins. Every person in line will require a ticket. No exceptions. ADA attendees must also go through the same process noted above. pretty tight rules, no one on your behalf is allowed to get the item for you.

Alpinemaps Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 So, sucks if you only have a one day ticket and you win a ticket for a different day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shewie Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Questionnaire gives you opportunity to choose one day between Thursday to Sunday. So you can match your days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zskid00 Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 I think it's complete BS that they don't allow every single attendee the chance to buy the exclusives. They should do a preorder months ahead of the show and make enough for each pre-registered attendee who wants to buy one. That way you can enjoy the convention instead of wasting hours standing in line or not even getting an opportunity to purchase something due to a lottery system. It's really absurd. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregpj Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Next step... record name and details of ID against numbered set (i.e. 1/5000) to identify crooked reseller scum! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, after attending several SW Celebrations, I've observed the folks who run the LEGO booth especially act like they've never used a cash register before. I think they must all be temporary volunteers. I would never expect them to implement an accounting system and actually keep track of stuff such as this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerEyez Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 When I looked at the rules the other day to consider whether I should go (I'm only 2 hours away), it sure seemed like there would be more than one exclusive set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have thought about going to celebration quite a few times, but anymore it's like why? You can live stream the entire thing from your computer... why pay 200.00 for that so you can sit way up in a bleacher and be forced to stand in a line for 12 hours to get to see the bigger events. Plus, it's not like this will be a tough set to replicate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would never expect them to implement an accounting system and actually keep track of stuff such as this.SDCC booth is run by LEGOLAND California employees. They can handle a line, but that's why the experience to get sets has been so bad for years. I willing to bet Celebration will have folks from LEGOLAND Florida. I think Anaheim may have imported LEGOLAND California folks, too. Bottom line, they have zero experience at crowd control and managing lines.

Plus, it's not like this will be a tough set to replicate.It's not about the set but the experience. It's seeing the cosplayers, looking at the merchandise, meeting up with friends. When it comes back to Anaheim, I'll go again. And I didn't even do any of the panels. SDCC is the same way. I take a year or two off every few years (I'm in the middle of a break right now - didn't go last year undecided about this year). There's plenty to see and do without hitting panels.

Plus, it's not like this will be a tough set to replicate. I don't even try to see the bigger events. We hang out on the show floor, autograph hall, and smaller panels. Much more to see outside the events, rather than standing in line for a panel, photo op, or autograph. I still ran into JJ Abrams, Anthony Daniels, Dave Filoni, and Ashley Eckstein last time without even trying. We learned clear back during CIII that you avoid certain events, but many other goers have a different idea of fun. Something for everybody, for sure. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
