First ever diamond pass bought without hesitation

Hi, I know this may change tomorrow but can anyone who is there today confirm whether or not he is doing selfies at his table. Thanks in advance guys

Maybe you could try a cosplay that isn't 'out there'. Like something that wouldn't attract lots of attention but you would still be taking part and hopefully feel more relaxed as the day goes on

I was really nervous walking around but I went with 2 mates so I had people to talk to like you. As the day went on I felt more comfortable and confident and I can't wait to do it again. I'm just concerned about the heat in Olympia

Thank you. I am also quite shy but can't stop talking if I find a common interest. If you are on the fence about whether to cosplay or not then just follow through and give it a go

Hey guys, This is just something that i wanted to share. I did my first cosplay at Collectormania 24 after finally building up the courage to give it a go. Throughout most of my life I have had little confidence and self esteem. This is due mainly to being very overweight during my child/teenage years. I managed to lose a lot of weight a few years ago but still lack a lot of confidence as I still see myself the way I used to be (I know it sounds silly). I am so glad that I managed to finally give cosplay a go. I really didn't know what to expect and I was so nervous. After entering the show I was first approached by a young girl and her mom and asked to pose for a photo which I was more than happy to do. The mom said to me that I really made her daughters day and it was the happiest she has been all weekend. From then on I was constantly stopped for photos and people being very complimentary towards my cosplay. I am writing this to firstly say thank you to Showmasters foe running these events but a huge thank you to all of the attendees. I have always had extremely low self esteem but by finally doing a cosplay at this event and by mingling with so many friendly people I feel the best that I have ever felt and my confidence has improved dramatically. I will encourage anybody with confidence or self esteem issues to give cosplay at a Showmasters event a go and I look forward to cosplaying again at LFCC. I am sorry for this long post but it is something I have kept bottled up for many years and I finally feel comfortable to share it and I hope it may help somebody who may be experiencing a similar situation

You should definitely do a Belle cosplay for LFCC

I had a photo with you on the Saturday (I was Gaston). Loved your cosplay

That would be why then lol

Joe Calzaghe seems to be missing from the list. Any idea what his time is please

I won't be doing the masquerade this time. Just planning on taking it casual and soaking up the atmosphere

I will be doing my first ever cosplay this year (despite attending conventions since 2003) as Gaston from the new live action Beauty and the Beast film. Are there any more Disney cosplayers attending?
