Hi
Is anyone going to Collectormania the beginning of May?
I have photo shoots booked with James and Charisma. I am hoping to get George Hertzberg autograph as well.
I already have Charismas' auto a friend got it for me a couple of years ago.
James was well popular at the last Collectormania - so I couldnt get his auto.

I'd love to go to this con, or any con for that matter! But they're always located down south! Urgh, so I can't get there really. Especially not for more than one day at least

North East of England, in the Middlesbrough area. In relation to where cons are generally held, it's pretty far to travel, I guess Ok, Manchester isn't THAT far away, but i'm car-less, and the parents are unlikely to drive me there and back for three days in a row. (Or however long the Manchester cons last) Amber Benson was randomly in Middlesbrough for a day once (Don't know why...) but I missed her. It sucked. I still have the advert/leaflet for it too. Dang, I was pissed that I missed it.

Ali, I have just bought Gold Passes for my mom and myself so we'll be there! Rich, you can go to the Manchester or Milton Keynes Collectormania's for just a day, you don't have to go for all 2/3/4 depending on the show. Cannot you and a few mates jump on a train for the day, you are 16 right? Being just outside of Birmingham, I mainly do Milton Keynes and the NEC shows. I have gone to Manchester once, the drive was a bit ! If not, you'll have to wait until you get your own wheels!

Sadly none of my mates like this sort of stuff. One does like comics and Heroes etc, but I don't think that's enough motivation for him to actually fork out the entry fee for it. I might go on my own one day if I can be bothered, but it's not as fun alone.

Well, Collectormania Manchester is £10 (early bird) but Milton Keynes is free. Well, have to have a poll going like Ali has done so we can arrange to meet borders... I don't mind hanging, but its usually me and my mom as she likes the cons and meeting stars. A "mom" can freak people.

By purchasing a gold pass you don't have to virtual queue, you just join the end of a star's queue, you also get a free photo if the star does a photo session and you get priority seating and free entry to a talk if the star does a talk. All for £175! There are so many people there this time and loads of them doing photos that the Gold Pass nearly paid for itself! The downside is you look like a lemon as you have to wear an id pass!

Is your mom having a pass too? I would have one, I dont mind looking like a lemon, it just shouts out 'I am rich!'. Could you use it to get more than one auto from the same star? Can you use it over the three days or just the one?

Can you use it over the three days or just the one? She is, I cannot not let her meet folks. I believe that unscrupulous individuals such as me ca rejoin the queue over and over. Basically the pass is usable for the whole of the show, so I intend to mug the stars a couple of times. As for Mr Routh, is the Pope Catholic? If I had my way I'd by bringing him home for dinner. ;D
