So just woundering what was evry one else buying this weekend? Some of the stalls had the most amazing stuff.

 

Also alot of them had raffles/competitions? Was any one lucky enough to win anything?

I made sure that the only money that came out of my wallet was when I bought Autographs, practically every penny was spoken for, well every pound.

 

But there were so many temptations - hopefully my bank manager will forgive me, I sent her some belgian chocolates, some flowers, and during the automated voice message I said.

 

"So, how about dinner tomorrow at 9, it will be candlelit, fine wine, caviar, etc."

 

lol.

I was incredibly well behaved. Despite a lot of temptation the only thing I bought from the dealers was a Supergirl 10x8 signed by Helen Slater. I couldn't resist that! :-)

 

This made up for the approx £240 I spent on getting autographs and photoshoots!

Got a big canvas cause it looked nice, contained the cast of all 3 Stargate series. Also picked up a Joe Flanagan auto for a fiver at auction :D

 

 

Oh I think I saw that on the Sunday. Was at the stall that had the borg city print that was cool but was a bit pricey I thought for £15.

I was really good about not buying too much - after all, I had 2 photoshoots, 1 autograph (William Shatner) and 2 paid talks (Shatner, Browder) already (add to that the flight from Munich and the hotel plus food and it adds up :D ) and was running on a very limited budget. I got the first Transformers movie, the Star Trek XI novelization, No Man's Land by Greg Rucka for him to sign, a personalized sketch by Lee Townsend and a couple of comics for cheap (4 for 1 GBP) :) Feel like I came away ok, as far as not breaking my budget and still getting some nice memories goes :)

I didn't buy anything though as always was tempted to take out my wallet a few times. One stall was selling a really cool piece of artwork inspired by BladeRunner- It was by the front entrance- I probably should've just pushed the boat and got that.

I brought a Michelle Ryan autograph off someone who I know. Come on Showmasters get her at an event!!

 

But made more money than I spent (on merchandise) as a dealer brought some old film posters off me.

 

However, I didn't come home with a profit, far too many autos and photoshoots, good times :D

What I bought (aside from autographs)

 

- wild cherry pepsi

- cherry dr Pepper

- rootbeer - first and last time, that stuff is nasty! It smells like socks and chewing gum, and tastes worse IMO

- Little Green Aliens earrings (from Toy Story, they are just awesome)

- renewed subscription for Fetishman comics

- DVD The Long Way Down (funnily enough I'd bought the book a day earlier)

- 2 Robert Rankin books

 

I was in London for a few more days and bought about 30 books in total, as well as DVD's voor my brother, and a supply of food that I can't get in Holland.

I managed to find Tomb of the Cybermen on DVD, and it was in a deal so bought the Brain of Morbius as well, a truly brilliant episode! I also found a few variants of Invincible Iron Man that I was missing so I left very happy, but sadly without a model of a Colonial Viper :WINCE:

Yeah, think i saw a photo of you and Michelle that you posted somewhere? I've heard she's nice and although she has a fair bit of work, I would of thought that being based in the UK, she'll do one of these events at some point.

Big Gremlin statue

 

Wolfman dvd

 

Supernatural T-Shirt

 

suprisingly i left there with £200 stll in my pocket. There was a few graphic novels i was after but either couldnt find them or when i did they were well overpriced, so thought I'd get them cheaper online

I didn't buy as much as I thought I would. I bought a series 8 Master Chief figurine, which had two plasma rifle. (The figurine broke as soon as I took it out of the box :D ).

 

I did mange to find a sealed copy of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed-Ultimate Sith Edition steelbook that had obviously been imported stock from the US. It works perfectly on my PAL region xbox though so I am absolutely chuffed, even though it cost me £60, lol.

 

I was really annoyed when that Master Chief figurine broke though. :wub:

 

I was searching high and low for a Eccleston era sonic screwdriver, but I couldn't find one anywhere. :'(
