Mayhem

I can't say I recall ever having an issue when asking a guest for a photo at one of these events.

I’ve used Sakura, Eddings and Pentel and they are all very similar. Not tried Deco but always good things there. Depends what are you wanting to get signed? Funko Pops? Depends if doing the cardboard or the plastic window too.

Missed her at Collectormania.

Ye olde seaside saying goes, you can take your trousers up and have a paddle, or take them down and have a piddle.

Rational guess, so people can decide in time if it’s worth spending the travel and accommodation money to attend the Winter event while they are both potentially cheaper now than closer to the time.

Cheers for the info Raylenth, I've sent in items to a number of SM shows over the years, and this is the first time I've seen the hologram. As said, not all my items sent in this year received a hologram either!

Cheers Queen S, I regularly chat to JasonG myself, but as he's at Glasgow this weekend, I was wondering if anyone else had gotten similar on their items or if anyone else knew about this before I ping him a message in a couple of days time when he's back home.

Got my send in items back from SM (for Sunday guests I wasn't there for) and some of them have a hologram sticker on the back saying "Showmasters Genuine Autograph". I was not aware this was being done, not seen any mention or information of this feature, when was it introduced? Given not all of the items had stickers applied, is it only being done for over a certain value, or the ones missed were an error?

There was no option in the survey if you attended two days heh. It was either one day or all three.

Bernard Cribbins, but only as I didn’t attend Sunday. I got everyone I set out to get at least.

I've always done Friday because it's usually when Jason loads the Star Wars guests, and tends to be the quietest, so win win. This year, I have to say, and several other people commented similar, that Friday was way quieter than last year's Friday. It was incredibly easy bar a bit of a dash about trying to catch everyone I wanted in between lunch, photo shoots etc, and having to reschedule getting Peter S for Saturday as he couldn't make it.

Not offhand, but all the big autograph collectors I know use them. It's because the sleeves are archival acid-free for starters.

It's Flickr time for my photos... https://www.flickr.com/photos/mayhemers/albums/72157710036151722

Preparing my daughter for starting nursery on Monday, I hope she nails it and takes no crap from the other kids heh.

My brother is usually interested in what cosplay and celebs I’ve snapped at each show.
