Good info but if you ask me the best way to release these galaxy foams is to do a silent release.

Here's my story at House of Hoops in Lexington, KY.
I was at Fayette Mall from 12:00 PM Thursday until release at HOH's.
I was in the mall everyday staying up to date. At about 8:30 PM 12 of us lined up outside the mall even though they said we would be kicked off mall property at 9:00. Surely, we were kicked off and told not to return a minute sooner than 4:00 AM by the police. Apparently they had been tipped by someone that threats from out of towner's were being made that if they didn't get the shoes, " No one would."
So the police were patrolling mall property all night. People were hiding in all kinds of little spots in their cars through out that police wouldn't look. My friends and I had a great spot. We were about 100 Yards from the doors which was almost as close as we could get, besides a logans which was on mall property. Come 3:30 AM people started to get out and sprint to the mall. So I followed suit. We were quickly kicked off and turned around by TWENTY COP CARS & a PATTY WAGON.
This @!@% was unreal. They were not playing!
So I pulled my car to the logans parking lot and just chilled. I was in game mode. 3:40 rolls around and people start creeping up again. Cops get in their cars and scare them off.
At 3:45 a group took off sprinting to the mall again! I figured they were for sure going to get arrested or booted off. But the cops didn't budge so I got out and ran too. I was 18th in line!
A whole bunch of kids form WKU and Young kids got the majority of the Galaxy's talking like, "These are going for $50,000! I'm selling mine."
All I could do was shake my head in disbelief. I asked the cop what happened to 4:00 am and he replied, "Our boss told us to let it go this time." I said, "What kind of @!@% is that? Don't half *%@ stick by the rules!"
So that pretty much cost me my shoes right there. All that time and effort wasted.
There was well over 200 people in line. The cops had pepper ball guns, mase, and a K-9 unit out. That was when I realized something.
I felt as if I was being treated like a damn zoo animal. I was in stunned. Never in my life have I felt more like a pet of some sort. So after standing in front of the KD line with my ticket. An hour or so later around 5:00 am I gave my ticket to a homie way back in line who wanted the KD's and peace'd out.
I will never again wait for a shoe that I am not guaranteed too get. And I RARELY ever have to line up for ANYTHING anymore, no matter the release type. I'm just lucky with friends I have struck relationships with in the shoe world I guess.
I went home empty handed and was cool with it. And I was able to look out for a friend.
Then the next morning I woke up looking for Galaxys at some international spots I knew of but of course they were sold out.
Luckily my homie came through for me and got me a couple pairs of (2)AS KD's and (4)Lebron's because I always look out for him in the states. So I came away successful stilll. The extra pairs were for my friends who struck out as well.
I am currently working on a pair of Galaxy's in my size. *Finger's Crossed* I thought for sure I had a pair locked up. :smh
NT fam, that is my story.

Thanks for the info!!!
Hopefully the second round of foams released in the summer will be on NDC. One can only hope. Living in the DMV, if it will be limited again for the summer and no NDC than I'll have to pass once again.
