Toys for Big Boys...

Gizmodeon

So who's going to be heading along this week for the airsoft tacticle assault demos?
Also Shiva will have set up shop there for Eirsoft, as well as bfsl
So it should be a good laugh

i was just about to order tickets to go and then thought...i really should be buying christmas presents and stuff..and i just got my AUG yesterday, and my deagle the week before, and a famas the week before that....i really, really cant afford more airsoft stuff

kdouglas

Hoping to get up Sat sometime.

Just a fit of fluff (and I have prove this time )
Some of the tickets issued have the incorrect Date Printed on them.
Mine have 2006 as the year.

~B

email I recieved is below:
Toys 4 Big Boys - Ticket Information

You may have received tickets which state the correct day, date and month but the incorrect year of the Toys 4 Big Boys show that you wish to attend. Your tickets are valid for the day that is printed on the ticket (Friday 9th, Saturday 10th or Sunday 11th) and you will have no problems entering the event.

This typo was due to a clerical error and the year should read 2007 instead of 2006. We apologise for any inconvenience that this may have caused you.


Opening Times and Dates:

RDS Main Hall: 9th - 11th November 2007

Friday 9th: 2.00pm – 10.00pm
Saturday 10th: 10.00am – 7.00pm
Sunday 11th: 10.00am – 7.00pm

I have the flux capacitor ready, just having trouble getting my hands on a delorean that can still do 88 mph

went down grand, a couple of people got asked a few questions by some people with cameras, think they were t4bb's own people though, tbh, i didnt actually see that much press there myself!?!

You letting people try before they buy? well at least fell the weapon's build quality?

Yeah Shiva's stand has a selection of AEGs chained to the table, so people can come along and have an auld fondle before they purchase something. MIA has the AEGs and pistols up on the wall in much the same fashion as their shop out in Blanch, so again you can have a quick stroke of anything you're interested in before you go fetch your wallet. Derek had an M249 out on the table for a while last night too, drool....

There's also another stall in the main hall, some chaps from Cork allegedly, they've got a bunch of AEGs up on the walls too, didn't spend much time there, but I did get to have a little peek in between demos.

Indeed it seems, and always my back! I can understand photo's of my back when I'm shooting (havnt yet managed to convince a cameraman to stand out front but I'm working on it:)) but why the others. Dose no one like my front? I could get a complex:D

sidneyreilly

Oh, I think theres a half inch of Rovi's nose visible behind the tactical dummy:D

any prizes for the name:D:D:D

anyone going tomorrow want to meet up in town ,before going to the RDS, heading in after lunch if anyone is intrested

ACW

I was there today, have to say very impressed by the airsofters i met. The staff at both booths (Eirsoft and MIA) were very helpful. (be warned there are three groups of idiots sellinf stuff to every jack and jill in the main hall, at inflated prices!)

Looking forward to getting in volved with the hobbie/sport here more than ever now.

Picked up a AUG (JC) Civilian and really tempted to spend my rent money on a CA M16/M4 varient.

Spitfire666

i said i wouldnt spend any money at the event but i've picked up a mac11 on the first night and an extra mag tonight. also scouted around for some other things like an r/c chopper and some other things.

indeed, the stuff they're selling is utter crap to be honest, and at over inflated prices aswell

Spitfire666

plus is getting **** thrown our way that we have to keep clering up every few minutes

Dave!

How are the sales lads? What sorta clientelle are ye gettin?

zero19

No scumballs i hope...;)

ED E

Yeah, will definitely be there sunday morning. Must check how much pocket money i'm owed:D

Spitfire666

to be fair to the lads, i've seen them turning scumbags away when they wanted "the most real looking one".

I thinks sales are okay but its the amount of people that are taking cards and wanting to make enquiries about oter stock before jumping in that has been huge. better for the sport and the image too i supose if people are not just grabbing what s there and walking round with it.

ED E

Yeah, Grahm's arisoft bebo page has a video slideshow of the ghosts promoting at the show. Good Job Lads.

I'm guessing you're doing already this but tony and MIA but its probably a good idea to ask people to leave em in the box until they get home.

Spitfire666

that wont get you anywhere with people who plan on taking them out anyway.

all stock sold by the two lads has had extra tape wrapped around the boxes to make it more awkward to do there and then.

ACW

I will be going back Sunday evening. Must avoid MIA and Eirsoft, not going to spend money, I repeat, I will be strong, I will not spend money! Damn, I think I may be weak.
