This is so pathetic. Grown people stealing toys... I kept a very lose eye on my
MOCs, and my soldier figs. Perhaps the fact that they were terrorists fighting
Chinese soldiers was a deterrent in and of itself. During Sunday I guarded my
MOCs like a hawk hovering around the MOC dressed in camo. How's that for
deterrence? :evil:
Anyhow, I agree some form of security measure should be placed. However it
should in all the Lego display rooms (including the train layouts) as well as
BrickBazaar during the whole of Brickfest weekend.
