We wanted to remind you of a few things that will make the pick up of your Star Wars 30th Anniversary exclusives quick and easy with Sideshow's 'Collect-n-Go' program! For your convenience, Sideshow Collectibles will be distributing the orders based on your last name. We will have two lines at our store front to assist collectors who are picking up exclusives, one line will be for collectors whose last names begin with A-M, the other line will be for collectors whose last names begin with N-Z. Please make sure that you choose the appropriate line for picking up your items. If you experience long lines upon your arrival, you have the option of returning to pick up your item anytime during the show prior to Noon on Sunday, May 27th. When picking up your item, you will be required to show a PICTURE ID as well as your emailed INVOICE. If you have not received your emailed invoice, please e-mail CustomerService@SideshowCollectibles.com or call 1-800-474-3746 (within the U.S.) for assistance. If you missed out on pre-ordering these exclusives, we suggest you sign up for the Non-Attendee Wait Lists, as we cannot guarantee that there will be any available for walk-up orders at the show on Monday, May 28th. **If you are a Non-Attendee, your orders are estimated to begin shipping very soon, so watch for your notices!
