Kinggodzillak Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 Stopped by the Leonard Nimoy fanclub desk, which had lots of Star Trek novels - 50p each or 3 for £1, so took 9 and they were good enough to hang on to them for us until we came back. Also, they had the Radio Times 30th Anniversary Star Trek special, which I always wanted as a kid but couldn't afford (£6.99 was a lot of money back then). It was in great condition and they only wanted £2 for it, so we took it. Sat reading it on the train on the way home, and found that it had been signed by George Takei, Robin Curtis and William Campbell (dedicated to Val, with love). Which was an unexpected bonus.

Quite a lot considering I didn't spend anything lol. My dad bought himself some models and a dad's army mug.

Crow T. Robot Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 I didn't really buy a whole lot of stuff except three Doctor Who audio drama CDs from the Tenth Planet stall, £10 each and 2 of them were autographed, so I was pretty happy about that.

lizzy88 Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 I got 2 Doctor Who figures I've been looking for for a while, LOADS of 12"x6" torchwood photos, one Patrick Stewart one as a present for my mum, many torchwood and star wars 8"x10" photos, and a couple of Star Wars litographic prints sets. And lots of postcards. I'm pleased I didn't come home with a cardboard standee of Captain Jack (I nearly bought one) as I can't afford the stuff I've bought let alone if I had bought anything else, my budget went out the window as soon as I stepped into the dealer's area. But I think I got a good deal on most of it - at least compared to similar things I've bought in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just couldn't deal with parting with my cash! Wish I'd found a good Michael Emerson photo for Abrams inc though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AutoBot Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 I got lots!! Found the 6" new Pike and Uhura figures for only £8 and they don't seem to have been sold in this country Got a cool mini Trek plate and mug where Dr Crusher "beams up" lol for £10 and got a few more nick nacks Spent more than usual at the stalls! I bought Kirk (probably from that same stall), only to later realize I took Pike by mistake! I was foolish enough to only look at the shirt, I should have known better, don't know what I was thinking as I always look carefully before I make my purchase. I went back and got my Kirk figure, the dealer said it was ok for me to trade. There was another stall that sold these same figures for only 5 quid a piece, now that's a bargain! I only bought Original Spock at first, because I wanted to look around more. When I came back Kirk, McCoy & new Spock was gone, which were the ones I wanted the most. I got Nero from him too though, and later bought new Spock & Kirk from the stall that sold them for 8 quid, which still is cheap IMO. From the same dealer I bought my Nero & Original Spock figures, I also got a REAL bargain for the 2-pack Amok Time action figure set with Kirk & Spock, only 15 quid! At the Swedish sci-fi convention I go to quite frequently, they charge over 30 for that same set. Another bargain I made was at the Official Leonard Nimoy Fan Club stall, where I bought a novel by William Shatner for only 3 quid. The stall next to it had a Planet of the Aoes book called The Planet of the Apes Chronicles, and it only cost me 2 quid! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owlpost1992 Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 (edited) 1 big image of Tennant 8 x 7x5 images of Tennant (Who/Hamlet/LLL) 1 x Tennant keyring 1 x Jack standee (it usually retails at £30 so £20 was a bargain also got to do a Captain Jack's Journey on the way home) 1x box set of Ten/Rose/Slitheen That Slitheen is possibly the best doll I've ever seen plus its a rare box 1 x Weevil at £5 which normally retails at between £8.99 and £9.99 1 x 1977 DW annual. It's a present for David, just need Tom to sign it though. Also a Matt Rippy signed pic from Hub 2 Not that I wasn't there but now need to meet him and get it personalised. Was gonna get a classic Shaun the Sheep and Penguin from Wrong Trousers and Close Shave but my friend vetoed that idea and a good thing too as it would have cost me £15 whereas Wallace only cost £1.50.
