New York Comic Con 2012: 250 boxes in 10 minutes

Back to New York Comic Con this morning before opening, time to access the LEGO stand, no more tickets, no more queues: The 250 boxes of the exclusive LEGO Star Wars set planned for the day were sold in 10 minutes.

Hard to believe, although I think LEGO is playing the game. What is certain is that New York Comic Con is full of professionals queuing up for exclusive products and resale specialties on eBay. In the queue yesterday, I didn't get the impression I saw AFOLs, but guys with arms laden with derivatives who come only to fuel their small businesses.

Ultimately, New York Comic Con boils down to a few hundred cosplayers (with more or less successful costumes for that matter) and the rest is made up of guys running around to grab the most wanted goods, visitors approach. to buy them back their finds at a low price and cram it all into huge bags that they drag with difficulty from one stand to another. 

Finally, Lou Ferrigno (The Hulk of the 80s) was asking $ 30 to scribble his name on a piece of paper. No comments.
