Sebster118 Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 I plan to cosplay as Where's Wally on the Sunday. Part of the cosplay will include a wooden walking stick and I just want to confirm if this would be allowed (I am an able walker so it's more of a prop than a walking aid). I ask because I read somewhere on last year's LFCC thread (or somewhere else) that wooden baseball and cricket bats weren't allowed, and Hacksaw Jim Duggan said that he couldn't bring in his 2x4 for "security reasons". The last thing I want is the security guys to keep back my walking stick (which would be thinner than the other wooden props 8 mentioned) and for me to enter the venue with an incomplete cosplay. Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Baseball bats and cricket bats are different, I'm sure you would be fine with a walking stick as they aren't going to take walking aids away from people. I know you don't need it but I meant they aren't going to risk going up to someone with a cane and demanding you prove that you need it Discrimination nightmare!

Where's Mrs. Potat-- oh wait, wrong thread! Yeah, you should be fine, Sebster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen_Sindel Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 I was going to say, as Long as you don't plan your Walking stick as a copy of Lucille... If the regular ones were forbidden that would be indeed discrimination because that would also mean any user because of health reasons was out too. Baseball bat or 2x4 is indeed a whole different Level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebster118 Posted February 3, 2017 Author Share Posted February 3, 2017 Thanks. Thought that'd be the case. Definitely no barbed wire (even fake) involved. Hopefully no Odlaws trying to steal the stick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamsphere Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Here's a pic of my chaplin cane. that was totally grand with the security peeps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebster118 Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share Posted April 12, 2017 (edited) Thought I'd mention that with the recent announcement of Joseph Marcell attending on the Sunday, I'll be doing my Where's Wally cosplay on the Saturday instead. (will cosplay as the 7th Doctor instead, which I was planning to cosplay on the Friday; will be cosplaying as the 9th Doctor on the Friday) Probably makes it harder for me to be found.

Namine Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I know I said I'll be cosplaying as Laura from Logan, but I'm also going to be cosplaying as Undertaker from WWE (I have a replica belt...so you can see who I am xD) Thankfully, the claws are plastic as said before and the belt is plastic too (not the kids "toy" version, it's a commemorative replica belt, but the actual plates are made out of plastic so...yea lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
