Hi guys. I've been busy every day preparing for the show. I've been packing minifigs, planning the table layout, and figuring out what to do about BrickArms.com while I'm at the show. Obviously, I can't pack and fill order while I'm away at Chicago for the show, so I'm leaning towards leaving a clear message that any orders placed during the show won't get shipped until a week after I get back.

More later.

Wow, I underestimated how long it would take to prepare for the show! I've grabbed every minifig I could lay my hands on in order to be ready, but I have no idea what to expect at the show.

I've not yet printed all of the signage for the bins, but that should get done by this afternoon. My printer decided to "give up the ghost" 2 days ago, and installing and configuring the new one (a wireless HP) took a little while longer than I had hoped. Ah, the trials and tribulations of running a small (very small) business.

I turned off the checkout system on BrickArms.com, and left a message saying that I was at Brickworld and would not be packing or shipping orders until my return. We try to pack and ship all orders within 2 days, and with me being gone, and I just can't meet that high-bar while I'm away.

I touchdown at Brickworld Friday afternoon around 5 or so. I should have my tables setup after dinner, and I'll post some shots as soon as I do. I'll take photos of the big surprises so you can all see the cool stuff I've been working on for the last couple of months since Series III was completed.

I found some white ninja headwraps in a dusty bin in the corner of the Lego room! That means I will be bringing some White Bandits to Brickworld this year! Woohoo! If there are any leftover when I return, I will post them for sale at BrickArms.com

We're all packed and ready to go! In 12 hours we'll be in Chicago and I'll be able to unpack the bulging suitcases full of product. :)
This will be the last post in the "Preshow" thread. I'll soon be posting in a new "Show" thread once we arrive.

See you there!
