Did Mattel line a couple of years ago and swore I would never do it again.

Looks like now you order online through presale.  Just go by the booth sometime to verify your purchase and then everything gets shipped to you.  Is that correct?

Yep.

Exclusive item links we captured yesterday now read: "We're sorry. The page you are looking for is no longer available." >:(

"The Porg Battle Roller will be available at San Diego Comic-Con, but for those who can’t make it to California next month, it will also be available from MattelShop.com starting at 10am (PST) on June 26 next week."


"for those who can't make it" Doesn't really match what the presale info we've seen.

OMG, I have been so busy. I missed out on these? I really wanted that Aquaman and Superman! I have just been out of it this year. My work schedule is all over the place and we are going through a lot of transitions at work automating my position and I've been stressed out. Ugh.

The pre-sales are next Tuesday.  Hopefully the others listed earlier are available in the pre-sale.

Mattel will sell these exclusives at the show (I think!). 

This year's version of the "online presale" looks different. Presale language in the links found by [member=2163]AzT[/member] indicate NO onsite pickup as in no physical "Torrey Pines" set up.  Rather, online confirmations must be "validated" at the Mattel booth to confirm home shipping AFTER the convention.

No official Mattel booth procedures yet, though.

Unless they are doing it at the booth, which just seems like it'd be a mess of a thing.  Would be nice to get more details since some of these are now getting a little tempting; but then like, it doesn't seem like the most awful thing to get it shipped later ~ more room in the car on the way home?

From what I understand, you have to check in at the booth to confirm your order and then they will ship it to you.

On that note, I want the she-ra tiara.

Thanks, Sam. I like the idea of them shipping it and no longer having to walk over to the Torrey Pines Room and lug crap to my car. Improvement.

Something happened with my browser, every page on the Mattel shop now directs me to the "page not found" page. Private browsing and other browsers work fine so it's some weird cookie thing I guess, maybe I refreshed the Thanos copter link too many times.

i personally have no problem with ordering them and having them ship it to my house direct.  dont have to lug it home and if anything it only hurts the flippers.

for those who want it to be "exclusive to sdcc" collectors and flippers.  my proposal which would probably never happen would be to preorder.  have it on hold to ship direct to home.  but have to verify in person at sdcc that you attended and had a badge.  it helps the buyer not have to bring it home and it also certainly helps mattel from having to bring stock to the convention.  and just have a smaller amount of stuff brought for open sale.
