robmoriarty Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 (edited) It's about one show, unlike CC and CM which cover multiple fandoms. It's also organised with other partners rather than exclusively by SM. The same could be said for Sherlocked.

Raylenth Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 There will probably be far less dealers, there may only be a few stalls, so don't go expecting to buy loads of stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazandymat Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 I heard a rumor that this show's autographs don't include the standard free 8x10 picture and you have to bring your own. Sounds like BS to me but can anyone confirm or disprove this and put my mind at ease? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For DST (And Sherlocked) because they are a specific type of show the terms they operate under are a bit different to Showmasters usual shows. I think it's to do with licensing but I may be wrong, but it means they can't include the 8x10's in the auto price. There will be pictures available at the show and they will be high quality but you do have to pay for them. Sometimes they have different sizes as well so they may have a selection of A3ish if you fancy bigger ones. I can't 100% tell you what they will cost but at the last Sherlocked I think they were £3 each for the 8x10's or you paid slightly less if you brought 3or 5 ect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 (edited) Oh and they will have Destination Star trek printed on them in a corner of all the 8x10's. I found picture of an auto from the Sherlocked events so you can see what I mean. Edited October 3, 2018 by Raylenth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you very much for clearing that up (and so quickly). Do you know if you have to queue at a separate stand in order to purchase your prints or do they just add a surplus to the autograph price at the signing table?

If it's the same format as at Sherlocked, they won't be at the signing desk, they will be set up at a different table somewhere in the venue, usually there will be at least 2 desks, and you buy them there. As you can imagine with the number of people there it does mean the photo desks are busy so allow time for that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravogd Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 There is definitely a separate desk. I would advise getting prints beforehand and bringing them with you if you want to grab VC’s or get into a queue first thing. The desk is always insanely busy first thing in the morning and people are trying to grab them and there’s very little order to the queueing. It took me quite a while to grab what I needed. They have sold out of some of the more popular ones in the past too.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CosmicAvatar Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Normally I buy Trek-related 8 x 10s at the show, but I'd like to bring a non-Star Trek 8 x 10 to be signed - is that OK? Don't normally do that for a specific show-related con, but don't want to assume I can, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 8x10's sold there are licensed which is why they have to charge for them but that doesn't mean you can't bring your own non licensed stuff, or items related to other works the guests have been in.

The effort that has gone into carefully crafting each post into a delicately balanced, subtly nuanced work of art is quite frankly astounding. You're all welcome.

Excellent news there will be plenty of traders, I had seen Star Trek Starships (Eaglemoss) has confirmed they were there coming. Make sure now I’ve got plenty of money to bring. Had been looking for a Seven Of Nine figure for Jeri Ryan to sign. hopefully one of the traders will have one Edited October 8, 2018 by brooketessmacherfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve brought my own items to conventions be signed and not had any issues. Got my Star Wars Blu-ray box set signed by Kenny Baker & Jeremy Bulloch (Boba Fett) and at LFCC2014 Brooke Adams signed all her impact Wrestling merchandise I had of hers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
