This is old news. Sideshow handled their SDCC exclusives this way last year. You ordered them and paid for them through their website, prior to the con, and then picked them up at SDCC. And you could not order them and have someone else pick them up for you. The person ordering has to show up to get them and show ID. It seemed to work pretty well. Leftovers were distributed via a list on which non-attendees signed up. Sideshow is doing the same thing this year with their exclusives.

Seems like a smart idea to bring a little order to a normally unruley situation...

Yeah i did this last year. It seamed to work pretty well but kids who got their parents to order them on their cards couldn't pick them up. It did seem to cut down on the quese and the chaos when it came to collecting exclusives
