Hi All, quick question. This is my first time going to SDCC and I wanted to know how do you go about to getting the exclusives? I heard its not as easy as walking up and picking it off a peg. Am looking to get the white lantern sinestro and maybe the black lantern hal from dc direct, and just wanted to know what I have to do or go. Dont want to get in the wrong line!! Thanks
They have you reach into a bag full of different colored tickets (usually red and green) and if you pull out the designated color, you can get a wristband to purchase. Tip: If you don't pull out the right color, just go to the back of the line and try again. There are usually enough winning tickets for people willing to chance the line over and over again.
Hasbro and Mattel usually hand out fast passes up in the Sails Pavillion, so I'd ask around there. These will have a time on them indicating when you can line up to purchase the exclusives at the booths in the main hall.
Great advice. Hopefully, you get everything you want at Comic-Con, but if you don't, we'll have our key Comic-Con offerings at 9am PT on 8/2 here at MattyCollector.com, including Starro. The only differences are that Orko won't have the color change feature, Plastic Man won't have the suitcase, and Starro won't have the spores.
For those of you going to Comic-Con, buckle up and get ready for a wild ride!

Graphitti designs was by far the worst place to buy from last year. Their lines were disorganized and constantly moved. Still, I did manage to get 2 different lantern colors. I'm glad their sticking wih the same exclusives each day.

They sold these at WonderCon and C2E2, so I think they have their system down. Unlike last year. Where I got trampled in line. Literally.
