    Bummed I didn't make it last year! So catching Saturday this Fest is clutch. And I promised my wife that we won't be standing in line endlessly so I hope she knows we'll be at the gate waiting for entry at 8:00am.
    Just Kidding, we're camping overnight.

    Ok so I was in CPA exams this time last year so I can't really say. What i can say is my friend who helps a couple booths out said that the first people came around 4am last year and he expected that it would be worse this year. I'd rather spend 6hrs sitting around talking toys with friends and not have to worry about the line then to show up at 8 or 9.

    A crazy line of Dolfins!! I am planing on getting to the venue very early just to ensure I get to the tables that I don’t wanna miss. Probably not 4 but perhaps 6ish

    I was thinking 7am personally.
    Definitely a large coffee day.

    My wife is gonna kill me for slipping out that early...
    Time to be extra suave.

    And it really did that person no good anyways since all the RXH stuff was line and time controlled. Good thing I got more sleep that day compared to that all night waiting outside person.

    I saw a lot of chat about a flipper army at 5 points last year. Is there specific folk they hit hard (like from what I’ve read Sunguts and Skull Toys)?

    Just trying to plan who I go and see first and want to avoid them at all costs.

    Skull toys seems like it will be loaded with flippers, but i will be trying anyway. I heard sunguts was cleared out in like 30 minutes.

    If I remember right, Sunguts had no initial queue and their stock lasted well into the day on Saturday. The only crazy queue was for Punk Drunkers/Skull Toys/Goccodo, and everyone was grabbing the Punk Drunker stuff. If Punk Drunkers don't show this year, its likely the line will be much smaller.

    Punk drunkers is there in the booth with skull toys , hakaba gallery , and milkboy toys

    The 30 mins sunguts thing was just what i had heard... maybe they meant only the "hot" items... I'm not really sure. I was surprised to hear that too

    I went in last year after the initial hour since I had a regular pass. The Sunguts booth was pretty picked clean except for a few of the school girl toys, sharks and most of the toys in that blue/white marble mix that looked like clouds.

    But it was still so fricking cool to be able to buy Sunguts in person!! I took a pic with him, very friendly.

    Yes, that is what I remember lasting, the marble mix, and the sharks and fetish mode.

    Good to hear. If I’d been there last year the marbled ones would have been the ones I’d have been after anyway.

    This is only the second year. I think everyone has just been using this thread, maybe @achung10 can change the title since he started the thread?
