Are we gonna go in as a group and enter the Toy Fair Scavenger Hunt?

I looked over the list and I can get a good bunch of these items. (the Greeting card in another language other then English or Spanish should be easy since I'm in Canada) I can naba luggage tag any time. and other stuff.

I figure if some of us poo out resources we could have a fighting chance at it.

But I won't go it alone.

So we need to see who's in and pick a captain. (I would but you guys shipping stuff to Canada then me shipping it all out would be silly)

The only real problem would be dividing up the swag should we win.

Anyway someon who has the most recent Toy Fair should post the stuff. I will if I get my Net fixed.

Then we could all post what we have (so we can remove them from the list) and post what we can get (so we can highlight them on the list) then crack some whips to get the rest.
 
I was seriously thinking about doing this myself, but there's alot of things on the list that are very much US orientated. Like I know for a fact I wont be able to pick up a home enima kit & a bottle of hot sauce from the same place! lol Also, a few of the other items on the list I've never seen over here in the UK. Even so, I might still gove it a shot. Might be fun. :)

Oh, & here's the list that you asked for Roughie. :up:

I have nothing to offer, as usual.
 
i'd do it.. but... arn't we all going to fight over who gets what? cuz i know id want anything spidey hahaha
 
this sounds like alot of fun
im down
 
sure, i'm in.

I live on the coast of Maine and there are 3 lobster places within 5 minutes of my house, so leave the lobster bib to me. I might be willing to give up one of my AIM agent heroclix, I have to see how many I have first.
 
i can get a couple of those things.
 
I'm down for the group effort. Just need to see the list of stuff so i can see what I can get.
 
I can get the Business card...... :p My father's initials are CC :p and I have 3dglasses as well.... and Airline tags.... and pez....
 
I'm down.

Let's do this.....I already cut out an airline tag from a guests bag :( it made me happy.
 
OK, first we need a team captain. Also we need to designate who's gonna get what. We need to accumulate what we have and see who needs to get/do what.

Lets move!!
 
so um... again i ask.. how are you all going to get together to get a picture?
 
OK, after looking at this list here's the stuff I'm pretty positive I have, can get easily or make easily:

Mr Potato head piece
toy w/ suction cup
Burger King crown (and maybe an unused cup)
used lotto ticket w/ Lucky 7s theme
Chinese menu w/ the word dragon
homemade Valentine card to a hero
green army man minesweeper
AIM agent heroclix
Chuck Norris drawing
famous movie poster made from cardboard, macaroni and glitter

I may be able to get the black yoyo, 8 track tape andthe bootleg toy. I can do the A-Team rap, I just need A-Team theme song. Also, I could probably do most if not all the photos.
 
Well, if push comes to shove then one of us can just enter everything under one name.

It seems the easiest way to bypass the guidelines. Thing is whoever is going to do that will have to most of the homemade stuff (like the ATeam rap, the Chuck Norris drawing, the photos)

I am willing to be that man.
 
can someone type up a list? so that way we can all copy and paste what we know we can get? so we know whats left to hunt for?
 
I've Got Dibs On The Business Card!!!
