If you’re still on the fence about attending BrickCon 2009, time is quickly running out. There’s just one week left to pre-register for the con, which will guarantee you your goody bag and engraved badge brick.
Although the public exhibition is great for showing off your LEGO creations (“Ooh! Is that a set?”), BrickCon for me has always been about the people. With over 200 LEGO fans registered so far, BrickCon 2009 is sure to bring together people you’d probably never get to meet otherwise.
Also, it’s a chance to buy LEGO sets at rock-bottom prices, as LEGO ships pallets of scratched-up sets from across the country to sell to fans at up to 50% off.
See you all in a few weeks!
That’s right!
If I remember correctly, the bag on the bottom right was mine, and Thomas’ were next to me. Ah, good times!!!
Sadly, though, I don’t think I’ll be able to make it… I cite monetary reasons.
If anybody is willing to pay for my planeticket, I’ll treat you to a discounted LEGO set or two.
Deal? =D?
i could be wrong, but when I registered about a month ago, I was #399
For anyone who isn’t familiar with this, the bricks in the sets are perfectly new. It’s the box that’s scratched up, dinged up, squished… whatever.
I’ll see you all there… although I’m flying, so I still have no idea how I’ll be able to stuff all of my loot into a suitcase.
In addition to Chris’ comment, the bottom boxes are probably being squished even more by my 6 sandcrawlers on top, good times indeed!
I wish I could be there, mostly for the discounted sets.
Would anyone be willing to buy some of the sets there, then ship them to me? Better yet, is anyone in the Milwaukee Metro area, WI going to BrickCon? I want to buy the sets, but I can’t go (school).
