Re: Force Friday II, September 01 2017
Probably not, I'm afraid. As I get older it gets tougher to miss my bedtime! That's a rather feeble excuse, but coupled with a need to reign in my frivolous spending it means I probably shouldn't put myself in the risky position of sleep-deprived decision-making in a venue full of shiny new toys.MattG wrote:Are you going to get to your local Wellington event Daniel?Reverend Strone wrote:Thanks for digging up and sharing this info, folks.

Re: Force Friday II, September 01 2017
For some maybe! Not only do I not have money to buy, I went into my local Warehouse - only option in town - at lunchtime today and there was no sign of ANYTHING, not even a covered-up display stand!
All I wanted was to get a selfie with a porg for my wife!
Have fun, all!

Re: Force Friday II, September 01 2017
Never fear ZY, it's the same story up in New Plymouth. The only store with cleared shelf space this afternoon was Toyworld - but if it's anything like last year, all of the Warehouse and Farmers stores (including Hawera, hopefully) should have stock come opening tomorrow morning.ZY-Fighter wrote:For some maybe!

None of my local stores are having a midnight opening, so my Force Friday will start at 8am tomorrow. Y'all have fun though, and be sure to flood us with pics!
