    Sweet! West coast represent!! I will definitely be at the show, but I don't really have any wares to justify a table!! Look forward to meeting you, Lonnie!

      I paid for six tables today. The area I bought won't be in a corner. It'll be along the back wall of the room. I should have a large area next to the tables for people to hang out if they want.

        Any other Oregon or Washington people planning on showing up?
        I'm thinking about maybe having a "trading" table for those who have extra Mego figures they want to trade for other Megos.
        There will be a toy drive for some foster home also. I'm planning on donating some stuff that doesn't sell at the show.

          A little over a month away! Start making plans now. November 20th and 21st. Portland, Oregon. Be there or be square! I have a couple people confirmed to attend. I'd love to see a bunch of members show up!

            Anybody else getting excited? I'm moving less than a week before the show, so that's going to suck for finding what I want to take. I can't picture the move being very organized.

                  I'm moving right now and have no idea how I'm going to get ready for the show. I have NO IDEA where anything is. Moving Sucks!!! I'm getting a bigger place and ditching the storage units to save some money. Paying for years of storage is so expensive I could have had way more toys!!!!

                    Are you going to bring some Laser Mego items to sell? I will probably have some extra table space...

                          Tomorrow and Sunday are the days!! Starts at 10:00AM Saturday for $4 or 8:00AM for $10. The $10 price for 8:00 is the early-bird admission. 8:00 is when set-up starts, so you can watch people unpack their boxes and snatch things up first. The show is from 10:00AM to 3:00PM.
                          Sunday the show starts at 9:00AM and ends at 3:00PM. Sunday admission is $2 at 9:00 or $6 at 7:00AM for the early-bird admission.
                          Saturday is a "toy" show and Sunday is the "collector market" show.
                          Door prizes from my booth for Megomuseum members! I'll be giving a door prize each day. I'll have a sign-up sheet for members here to sign up for a give-away after the show. So if you show up, make sure to sign in at my table.
                          There is also a toy-drive going on, so I will be donating some stuff. It'd be nice if some poor kid could get a new "retro-Mego" style figure for Christmas!!
                          Hopefully lots of people will show up! If it does well, it'll turn into an annual event.

                          Show Hours are 10am-3pm
                          Admission is $4
                          $3 Admission Price With Can Food Donation
                          Children Admission Is Free
                          8 AM Early Entry Passes Are $10.00


                          The Columbia Conference Center is an excellent facility that provides free parking, concessions, nice restrooms and tables with chairs for resting your feet. The Airport Holiday Inn is a great place to stay the night when attending the show.
