    The Jackelope is exactly what you would think looking at the blurred image

    I like all 5 thus far and would buy 1 of each for all 6... Even if 6 is ugly.

    Just got word that the line is a total mess. Looks like I'll be searching eBay this time unless someone wants to pick me up two Ames monsters ;)

    Was there a 2/person limit on each poster?

    I was 34th in line. Got there around 8:30. The time went by pretty quickly as I talked to some nice people around me. Once doors opened it took me about 35 min to get in and 10 to make my purchase. Limits were 2 posters per style per person. Many people in front of me got the 12 that they could but there were still a lot left. I think every single person in front of me got 1-2 Thomas posters. Easily the favorite!

    I am not a profiler but there were definitely some people in line that did not belong. The 2 guys in front purchased ALL the pennants and another dude had 4 stacks of clothing piled up to his head. I saw another guy with a shopping bag FULL of wrist bands.....dude must sweat a lot!

    I got my Thomas, Mark 5 & Ames 1 posters along with my patches so I am happy I decided to stand in line. Overall it wasn't too bad and at least the people gave me some entertainment,

    10 mins to make the purchase?! What were you doing trying on each shirt? No wonder lines take so long. (J/K op I'm sure the merch staff were taking a long time grabbing each item for you :) )
    Wouldn't it be funny if the world ended in 2010, with lots of fire?

    They had trouble finding stuff as no one knew what was sold out and what was still available. It was a poop show behind the counter. Also the CC machine did not work lol

    Wow the cc machine wasn't working... So now you have people running out of line to atm's. Glad I won't be there until Sunday afternoon, and maybe I grab something inside, no way I'm waiting in line. All I want is a koozie anyway.

    So people actually had $420 cash on them to purchase 12 posters. Sounds like the merch table better have an Armored truck to take away all the piles of cash coming in the door!

    just wonder..when the artist finidhed the Jackelope poster,,he look at it and was happy with it??
    "...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
    "..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
    “..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”

    I expected Ames Bros to bring the Whale back...either a green whale or a whale battling a green sea creature of some type...
