Hapori Tohu Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 BZPower prides itself in overtaking the Bionicle display at any LEGO convention, but with BrickFair being the country's largest means for AFOLs to congregate and show off, we count on you, the members to help us make it memorable as we unforgivingly show just what the Lincoln Logs of LEGO themes can do. How? By mailing your MOCs to stand with the best and brightest creations of BrickFair 2012. Everything you need to know follows.View the full article Quote News Forums Q&A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meiko Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I'll be bringing my very cool MOC[ to BrickFair. I look forward to seeing everybody else's very nifty BIONICLE/Hero Factory MOCs.

Zorrakh Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Is there anything else that the finalists of BBC #63 (or at least those who participated in BBC #63) need to add when shipping MOCs to Brickfair? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dviddy Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Is there anything else that the finalists of BBC #63 (or at least those who participated in BBC #63) need to add when shipping MOCs to Brickfair?Nope. Just make sure we know it's the right MOC, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeluNumber1 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 If you did not enter BBCC 63, do you still get a prototype piece for sending an MOC in? Quote Why are orange and black such a good color Combination ? Purple is pretty, and so is blue. Pink hurts your eyes, green is quite mellowing, black is very threatning, red is cool, orange is SO awesome, yellow's hard to read... But you can't see white at all! Oh, wait. I forgot brown. Here's my thoughts: If a person tells the truth and says, " I always lie," Is he lying? Or is he telling the truth? And what has a mouth, but no head, and a body, but no torso? Do caterpillars like to tend to supporting colum of stone's every need? Or is that name misleading by nature? Speaking of nature, why are the children of animals called offspring? don't many young beasts come alive in spring, and thus, should be called onspring? Heeeeeeyy..... I got the first post on a page for the first time. Who knows; it may happen again. What the... It did happen again... and again... YEAH! I'M ENCOUNTERING PROTODERMIS!

Ballom Nom Nom Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 For those of us who will be going to Brickfair in person, is it preferable to send our MOCs to Brickfair's mailing address instead?~B~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Six Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 If you're going in person, you should just bring your MOC with you. If for some reason you can't, you should send it to the address we gave. I don't think Todd Webb (who runs BrickFair) handles people mailing their MOCs in. Quote Bio of a BZP Admin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballom Nom Nom Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Ah, okay. Thanks. I'll probably be sending my stuff to DeeVee then, as it will likely be too much to conveniently bring on an airplane with me.~B~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daiker Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Gee, perfect timing for my latest project! I'll be sure to show up with a thing or two. Can't wait to see everyone else's amazing works! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Iron Toa Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 It would be cool to send models in sometime, but I'm not that good a builder. I've seen pictures of the amazing things that are displayed at these conventions, I don't want to waste space with something mediocre.

I don't think Todd Webb (who runs BrickFair) handles people mailing their MOCs in.If I were to do this, should I arrive on the setup dates (2nd or 3rd) to display them? Would I need to register as an exhibitor to do so? Also, would I have to attend until the last day in order to pick them up?Also where do I register for the event?

Yeah, you have to register, because then they can make a display card for the MOC(s) you submit. You could pick them up either day, but it's best to keep them out both days. You don't have to come to pick them up. You can get a friend to pick them up and mail them if you'd like. I guess I could do that if you need. :)Before registering, you have to sign up on the website.

There really aren't any fees beyond the registration charge. You are more likely to get better goodies the sooner you register though. Quote If you win, you live. If you lose, you die.

ChocolateFrogs Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 (edited) So it's flat rate return shipping now? That's nice, makes it easy for us.It is if you are in the US and you aren't sending something extremely heavy or in an express shipping package. If it costs more than the stated $10, be responsible and cover your return shipping.Please.-CF Edited July 16, 2012 by ChocolateFrogs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballom Nom Nom Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 So, to clarify, we can bring MOCs to BrickFair on our own if we are attending, correct? For instance, do MOCs such as the BBC Contest entries need to be sent to DeeVee to avoid being disqualified, or is their presence checked at the convention once all MOCs are set up?~B~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
