    What a GREAT selection you're taking to this one. Unfortunately I was going to come along, but now can't make it, so I'll have to catch you at the next one.
    But.... 3300001 BRICKLEY - I haven't seen one of those new in box for YEARS !
    and your blue and white space babies for £18 is a bargain, I imagine someone will snap them up quick.
    I got my Dark blue space torso the day after you were in the store, and managed to upload a video on it, very quickly.
    Have a GREAT show, I'm sure you're going to do well with the sets you're taking.
