Yea ...well I took a vacation this week from work - honestly it's been nice not going to work, but I feel like it's been a wasted week, honestly - Don't get me wrong - they are super generous with their prizes, but it has become too mainstream - Spook used to be about giving back to people who made sideshow what it is...their customers...Almost seems like the turn has been made to earn business from more people by giving away "samples" if you will, of their products. I love Sideshow and always will. They are in business to make money...I get it. I know they appreciate the people on here, the freaks, who support them ALL year round. It just seems like this years Spooktacular is falling short of showing the freaks that we are appreciated - True, they don't owe us anything....but this event has shown us in the past that they are generous with their products. I guess...in short...im just disappointed. Proclaiming to everyone when the prizes are going to be given out kind of defeats the purpose of the hunt or the "be ready" slogan - I don't have to be ready if you are going to tell me when I need to show up to win big stuff - Ok ...Im done - feel free to mock me if you would like ! : )
 
I don't get this fad. I saw the DC ones Sideshow sells, at TRU for like $3 less. I suspect we may see the same for these too. Is there some burning new hipster trend I'm completely unaware of?! Because, especially from a high-end collectible company, I really, REALLY can't see the appeal of this ____. :huh

Save the best til last maybe? :dunno
 
There was nothing like the old spooks when they had LOTR SS/Weta prizes, 50% discounts, and more Universal horror.

The last two days of product announcements have been plain filler. They'll be giving away those plushies at next years Spooktacular. :monkey4
