malskelton Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Sorry if this has been asked already - this is only my second convention , and I am hoping to pick up several Star Wars autographs when I attend on Saturday I've read a lot about the virtual tickets for the bigger guests, but I've not seen anywhere that quantifies who classes as a bigger guest My wish list is Peter Mayhew, Ian McDiarmid, Dave Prowse and Julian Glover. In my mind these are all big guests - but how will I know whether they have VT in operation ? I don't want to spend hours in a queue and miss out on getting somebody else ( which was my prior experience ) Any advice / guidance would be gratefully received - just need some suggestions on planning my day and how to maximise the autographs I get Thanks Mal Skelton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a line gets too Long the VT System is being implemented. This can happen throughout the day, even if a guest starts as no VT. It's never announced in advance who is on VT, simply because this can Change so suddenly. You find out if they operate VT by checking their signing area in the Mornings. If they are on VT, the tickets are being handed out there. Personally I would expect Peter and Ian to be on VT. Dave may be because he's not the fastest signer due to his health. Julian probably not.

Obviously things can and do change regarding VQ's throughout the day but that's a good guide to be working from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thx And in Addition to what Stuart says: only Gold and Diamond Passes Need to be picked up physically. For Standard entry, YLAC entry, talks or photosessions you Need to present your e-ticket for scanning of the Barcode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomOneGone Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 So I shouldn't buy the ticket then if no batches are available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen_Sindel Posted July 27, 2017 Author Share Posted July 27, 2017 Okay, the non-experienced Forum user reply. Forgive Raylenth, she used a term that's become Standard here for technical issues with the store. This issue with all Batches being sold out but the shoot still being on sale (without selecting a Batch number) has unfortunately showed up for a number of shoots. I have contacted the Office People handling the store. But they are on site in London already, so I don't know when I will receive a reply. The bought tickets should be honoured, but they will become part of the next Batch. So if Gemma Batch 1 is gone you'd be Batch 2. I will post here as soon as I hear anything back, but that likely won't be before the evening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waynest27 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Sorry if this has been asked before but I can't find it anywhere, with a diamond pass, for Christopher Lloyd or John cleese can my wife go to the photos while I go for the autographs? As I have mistakenly booked a separate photo shoot! Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
