DJeXeL Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Got a special delivery at work! I'll be sure to post pictures as soon as I get home. Thank you Robb and Elissa!
Nrthwnd Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 So - much - stuff! Mind boggling, really. And really - where DO you keep all of this stuff, Mr. and Ms. Alvey? I know it's ongoing but whoo! And knowing what you pick up on various tours, another storage apartment or...what?
SharkTums Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 ^Great question! Well, first off, we need a much bigger house! We actually converted the master bedroom and bathroom into the TPR Office. We put plywood over the tub and use that area as storage! The bathroom counter is all storage as well! It's kind of funny...but sad.

We put plywood over the tub and use that area as storage! The bathroom counter is all storage as well! It's kind of funny...but sad. I can hear it now..... Robb: Hey Elissa, can you go to the tub and get me some more maps for these BoC's..... Elissa: Sure thing honey, but I think there might be some better ones under the sink. Anyway, I got mine today and will throw some pics up later. Awesome as always and I also got a top 100 DVD thingamajig included in the same bag. BTW, I wonder what the postal service think when they see these come through their offices and the label on the front actually says Bag O Crap? Thanks again guys for all the great work you do and the services you provide for all of us all over the world!!!

Nrthwnd Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) ...BTW, I wonder what the postal service think when they see these come through their offices and the label on the front actually says Bag O Crap?... My thought exactly, concerning our Customs Guys, LOL! "Hey Marv - what's with all this sh** in here? I dunno, Frank. Y'thinkthere's one of them weapons in here, somewhere? (Takes a drink of Molsons.) Naw. It's just Crap." Edited January 28, 2014 by Nrthwnd
Woodie Warrior Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 BTW, I wonder what the postal service think when they see these come through their offices and the label on the front actually says Bag O Crap? So my dad called me and told me a package had come in and I asked him if he could run to the post office to pick it up. Apparently as the lady was bringing it out to him, she said "Here's your box of crap". He thought she was just being a b**ch, but then she pointed out the box actually said "Bag of Crap" on it

Randomman295 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 I was having a crappy day until the doorbell rang and one behemoth of a box showed up. You guys really packed this thing tight with some sweet swag. Seriously. Mad props to whoever was involved in this. (Not pictured: A Japanese Die-cast toy car, and a Cedar Point Gatekeeper lanyard) Onto the contents: Here we see at least three metric assloads of park maps. Not even going to lie, this almost doubled my collection. Three DVDs, a few Japanese plushees, three buttons, two stickers, a magnet, two tubes of chapstick, a mug, a backpack, some weird green container thing, cloth (!!!!!!!), a poncho (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!), a clipy thingy, a photo album, a thank you note (right back at you), and a Google Play card (Huge pleasant surprise!). And here's the two t-shirts (Main logo on one, and the New Hotness 2012 logo on the other) below an especially meaty folder from (supposedly) the White Water West IAAPA booth. And last, but DEFINITELY not least, is the beautiful abundance of IAAPA paperwork. I'm a huge Zamperla fan and I nearly peed myself when I saw that booklet, which is basically a catalog for all of their newest and best rides. Not to mention a full size Cedar Point map alongside some John Carter promotional stuff. I seriously cannot thank you guys enough. This made my week.
Nrthwnd Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 I must say, I am almost overwhlemed with all of this....crapness.
Gnome Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Found something in the mail. Some really interesting things to go through and Im really appreciative of the "care package." Thanks to the Alvey's and everyone else at TPR! Nothing says SWAG like a bright red swag bag with Bold theme park review branding. I now dub thee the TPR bag-o-swag Continuing the trend of items relevant to every day life, Robb knew my roommate was a professional MMA fighter and gave him some Swag to help with his recovery after training sessions One of the most exciting items, i received volume 7 of raw hardcore coaster action. Things might get messy Maps featuring my former employer. God is he attractive! Some brochures from various parks around China and Japan. Very nice! Obviously Robb knows Im no stranger to rain being as i reside in the PNW. He was gracious to provide me some protection from the elements. Also threw in some stickers, a pin, magnet, and.... Mystery DVD? Innnteresting.... A collection of brochures from parks I have yet to have visited, but are high on the list Islands of adventure, meet Adventure Island I got a surprise packet in the mail today. Could it be the mythical bag o crap? It appears so!

rcdude Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 I got home from school today and there was a TPR Bag-O-Crap waiting for me on my desk. Like any responsible student should do, I got my homework done as fast as I could and then took a look inside. There I found... -A GateKeeper bag -A red TPR bag -A TPR Instant Cooling Towel -A rain poncho -Insane Coaster Wars magnet and lip balm -Team TPR Coasting for Kids button and sticker -A TPR pen -A dozen maps -A Thank You note from Robb HOLY CRAP! I would like to give a huge THANK YOU to Robb, Elissa, and the rest of the people that make TPR wonderful. I know these can't be cheap to mail out and I'm certainly not the only one to receive one, so amazing things like this really say a lot to how much members are valued on here. Picture Time! It's a genuine TPR Bag-O-Crap! I've never received one of these before. Let's see what's inside. Here's the complete collection of maps. Top Row: World Joyland (I think), Silver Dollar City, Djurs Sommerland, Fuji-Q Highland, Janfusun Fancyworld, Holiday World; Bottom Row: Universal Orlando Resort, Epcot, Hong Kong Disneyland, Happy Valley Wuhan, Disneyland Paris Resort, Adventure Island. Here's all the crap inside. A couple bags, a bunch of maps, and random other assorted items.
bert425 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 the mystery DVD in mine was "Coaster Expedition Vol 8" (not sure if that's the same one others got tho). but I just spent about an hour watching incredibly fun "home movies" featuring folks I've only seen in trip reports (ie: still pics, or the occasional video that Robb posts). Makes me wanna go on a TPR trip all the more!
KBrylczyk Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Apparently I posted in the wrong thread earlier. I went to the stickied giveaway thread, haha. I got my GIGANTIC Bag O' Crap today and couldn't believe how insane it was! There's far too much to list so I'll let the picture do the talking.
Gnome Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 ^ As exciting as it would have been to get a bigger score, Im grateful for a more modest amount. i'd have no idea what to do with all that!
