More questions :P
1. When people talk about conventions, are they the public ones or the private ones?
2. Is Will going to start selling BrickArms at the public convention, or will he start selling them to those who paid a fee to get into the private convention?
3. Will all types of BrickArms items (minifigs, weapons, packs, etc.) be sold at once? (Or will there be certain days for different stuff?)
Oh, and about FREEBAP, will they be given out to people who know about this at the store or at the convention? (Also, what are the convention at brickcon like?)
I wanna know this stuff because of curiosity and mainly because of my dad, who's very... picky about these things.
I need some sort of reassuring info so he'll actually DRIVE me there.
Thanks for your help, I'm very new to these things!

1) Conventions usually are split into two different parts: public and registered. During the public hours, anyone is allowed into the convention and walk the floor to see the MOCs and talk to fellow FOLs. However, all the other times during the convention are for registered attendees only (people you see walking around with badges). Meetings, seminars, and other fun events are held during these times.
2) Anyone who attends a convention where Will has a booth is able to purchase BrickArms. This includes both public and registered attendees.
3) Everything Will has available is able to be purchased each day. However, more in demand items, particularly convention exclusives and new items, sell out very quickly. Will sells until it's gone!
4) For some fun treats, just walk up to the BA booth, introduce yourself to Will and/or another BA staff member as a member of the forums. That's it. Chances are we'll want to chat with you for a bit, and afterwords, we'll have something for you for making the trip out.
Conventions are just down-right awesome. They're fun, safe, and fairly inexpensive. While interacting with folks online is fun, meeting them in person is even better. If you can make a convention, go. You won't be disappointed! Great MOCs, nice people, the chance to participate in fun events, and the chance to get a sneak peak at upcoming BrickArms items. What's not to love!
