loveamyadams Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 at the moment theres a couple of boxers i'd like to meet but going just for them isn't worth the train fare as they are allways around. No big film guests means i'll give it a miss like the Earls court one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mashbury20 Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 As has been said before - it's all down to personal preference. You can personally look at an event and there's some YOU want to meet. I might look at it and not think there's anyone for me at all. You'll look at guests from other events and wish they were here etc. So yes, unfortunately this event might not have any for you, but I know people going meeting 5/6 guests already. Not only is it about personal taste, but how many you think is a good number to meet also. It can range from people being happy meeting 1/2 to people who won't attend unless there's over 10 that they want to meet. We're all different. I agree that guest lists are very much a personal preference thing, but you have to admit David that this November's list is way below par for the MK events. I think you only have to look at some of the posts on this forum to see how disappointed the Collectormania MK fanbase is. I am not knocking Showmasters as I have been a loyal attender at their MK & London events for years & usually love the MK show, I am just really disappointed that the attendee list for next month's event is so shockingly sparse of bigger names that I probably won't make it along. Perhaps I've just been spoiled by the guest lists for previous MK events & I am asking for too much... Still, at least this way I don't overload my credit card like I usually do ! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of personal taste, I'd say this is one of the weakest line-ups I've seen. There's been times in the past where there hasn't been a single person I want to see, and CM22 has 1 guest I want to meet, but I'm still able to see that this line-up isn't as good.. For example, I'm not a fan of Game of Thrones, but if SM announce someone big from the cast, even though I wouldn't personally want to meet them, I'm still able to think "wow cool guest SM, that'll bring in fans on the day and help create that busy (but hopefully not too busy) convention atmosphere we all love".

lursauk Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 We are still going, travelling from Hull via Cardiff for the DW Experience,we booked a room a few months ago so its a done deal really. We are also costuming both days so hope its worth it. Like everyone else I'm very disappointed at the guest list though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaythree Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Was looking forward to it, but also a bit disappointed by the line up so won't be attending unless they get a big Star Wars/Game Of Thrones/Lord of the Rings guest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators StuartG2198 Posted October 27, 2014 Moderators Share Posted October 27, 2014 Sadly another one for the "not attending list" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matty-lad Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 No guests for me this time, so sadly I'll not be there. Well I've only been to 1 MK and it was amazing. This one unfortunately has no one for either myself or my brother so we won't be visiting. I'm not too cut up about it though since I attended WLFCC and will be going to Cardiff next week so I'm just thinking about all the money I'm saving. Take care, Matty-lad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moogie Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 I usually love attending MK, with the more relaxed atmosphere,and as I have health issues,at least there I can find somewhere to get fresh air,and a place to sit for a while,(unlike summer LFCC),where we can share our interest in meeting our favourite actors.But this time,there are no interesting guests that we have not seen before.Why is this con SO short on guests? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
