Anyone ever have trouble bringing back purchases through airport security? Some of these figures and vehicles might look very strange on the x ray machine.

I wondered the same thing last year with all that metal in my suitcase but it wasn't a problem.

Thank you Fish!
I looked at these repeatedly last year at OTSN.I wasn't as weak as I thought since I managed to restain myself.
Morale could still fail though.

FubArrrrrRRRrrr

The price did a pretty good job of restraining me!

Those Russian figures can set you back some!

When I was going through the X ray machine, I could see the screeners looking at the contents of my bag and talking. After about 30 second, one of the guys comes and leans over and whispers "Which war?"

Still one of my favorite stories from OTSN.

Nice story. I have often wondered what airport security would think if I tried to go through with some.

Thanks fish for the web sight.

I have gone through O'Hare screening four times with toy soldiers in my carry on since 9-11. A couple of times the screener has asked a co-worker over to look at the x-rayed bag. I usually just say "toy soldiers" and they nod their heads and let them go through. Once, they insisted on searching my bag because I had two Minichamps tanks inside. I guess they wanted to see if those tanks could shoot through those 1/32 scale barrels.

I'm glad to hear that I was not the only one had trouble at O'Hare going home after the 2005 Chicago Show. I got striped searched. Their sniffer picked up some type of bomb making residue on my laptop. To a side room we went, they went thought everything I had. I'm now down to my shorts and the cute little Beagle still says I have bomb making residue on me. They got another type of electronic sniffer and it stopped on my chest. They found the villain.
I have to wear a slow release NITRO Patch for my heart. I had put new one on before going to O'Hare & my laptop was the last thing I packed.
I must say that the personal were very polite and did their job well. They liked my K&C Toy Soldiers and ask many questions.

Briefs. Hate boxers and don't even know what a tighty-whitey is. If my wife knew we were talking about this, it would confirm her suspicion that I have regressed to a 10 year old especially vis-a-via toy soldiers.

So, what's the suprise there? I thought it was a given.

Hmm, I feel the age regression beginning ...

[Louis Badolato]

The regression is only just beginning for you? We collect TOYS, man! And you sell them!! Maturity is not in the job description.
