Mattel usually sells out of the good stuff by Friday and start limiting the items for Fri Sat mostly gone and Sunday usually no line as all the good stuff sold out, from previous years anyway and I've gone for the last 20 years, but this is the first year for the lottery, so I'm guessing a better chance than the vendors who bought the good stuff every morning. :tickedoff:

Yeahhh thanks. I had a feeling. I'll just see how it goes come Sunday then.   Whats the typical stuff that moves?  I'm mainly after the Hot wheels and Jurassic Park stuff.

Mattel was part of the portal in 2019, the last sdcc before the pandemic and last year not including preview night, security was handing out timed tickets for when you can fall in line. And the “good stuff” wasn’t sold out by Sunday. Mattel allocates daily because I got into the Mattel booth at opening on Sunday and they still had everything available to purchase.

Thanks for the ray of hope.  Do you recall if Mattel was strict on Photo ID checking?

I didn’t win a Mattel slot in 2019 so I don’t know.

I got that message trying to get in, I got that message when I would finally get through the queue, and when I was finally able to select a time and put in my info, I would hit confirm, the circle sound spin and nothing.  Multiple times.  This is the worst virtual queue I have ever seen, and I’’m putting it below the ReedPop NYCC ones.
