My store sold out in about 5 minutes tops. They didn't go on sale until noon along with the event and they were about 30 people there trading. All in all I had fun geeking out with other Infinity fans.

Our store got 20 of the exclusive packs. There were only a few traders there, but I managed to trade off all of my doubles and get 2 of the exclusive packs. Overall, the event went well here.

hi everyone! i live in hawaii and i am planning on going to the event with my 6 year old nephew in a couple of hours. I just have a couple questions for you all that went already. Should we go there right at 12pm in order to get a Tron Disc/exclusive pack? Or should I go earlier to wait in line?

@kwongscu -- your store may vary from other forum member's store experiences, but if I were you, I would go to your store at least a half hour early.

My store was crazy. I got there a half hour early and there were already about 5 people in line for power discs (which they weren't selling until the event at noon). By the time they brought the exclusive packs out, there were about 15 people in line waiting; they only allowed one per family on the discs, which is a bit unfortunate; either way, I was just happy to get the disc; I expect they sold out immediately.

In addition, they had coupons for everyone, so I got the TRU exclusive messenger bag as well as the power disc album for 40% off. Looks like it will be a bit of work to get the full set of power discs from TRU, but I'll get them one way or another.

I managed to get two of the Tron packs when my store opened though it did take about 10 minutes for them to find the packs. They had 24 packs total. I also got the last disc I needed. We went back a little before noon for the trade event and they let us each buy one of the Tron packs. That worked out good as I needed three anyway as I'm also putting together sets for my cousin and a friend. I manged to trade a Dumbo and an Abu for the last four discs my cousin needed and then traded other duplicates for my friend and I only need five more for his set. Very productive overall. Had maybe 8 total individuals/families show up to trade.

There was a guy at my store that was looking for a Buzz and I still needed one for my friend's set, but I told him I'd defer trading for it until he got his. Another family that arrived later pounced on this kid that had a Buzz to trade. No one else showed up with a Buzz. The guy had to pick out a regular pack to go with his Tron pack for the 2 for $6 deal so I helped him look for a rare pack and found one and it turned out to be Buzz so he was happy.
