I have purchased Billy Dee tickets. I would like to meet Ian McDiarmid but will get the tickets on the day. Possibly Hayden. In regards to Ian McDiarmid do you think if I arrive at Olympia around 7.30am I would still have a chance in getting the VQ? I know you can't really say but any thoughts would be useful for me to plan my trip. Thanks. Edited July 11, 2019 by Lita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a General Chat topic and also a topic specifically dedicated to "who are you meeting?" in this forum. If you want to chat please use these topics.

Thanks @Queen_SindelI thought it would still be in line with Hayden's theme as he is one of the guest I am interested in getting VQ but not sure whether autographs or photo. Noted what you said thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mppayne76 Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Will the Vader/Palpatine photos be available on Hayden’s and or Ian McDiarmids table? I need to know because I want to get a double autograph so need to prioritise the person with the picture first in order to get the second.

What photos they will have available at the tables is not announced before the event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mppayne76 Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Can we see what they have on the day or is it best to get in the virtual queue and then choose later? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can certainly ask to go and see what they have on the table but you might not be able to if it's busy and there's no guarantee the image will still be available if you get through the queue - if it's an image everyone wants it's possible they may run out. If you want a specific image it's always better to bring it with you. Statesidestills are a good company and have a quick dispatch time so you can see if they have what you want. There will probably be stalls selling 8x10 at the event as well, but there's no way to know for sure, or that they will have what you want Edited July 13, 2019 by Raylenth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen_Sindel Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Hayden will be in a booth for sure. I can't see attendees being let in there to have a look at photos at all. Ian may possibly have a "visible" queue. But even then chances re slim because h will be so busy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year the payment/photo tables for booths were outside the booths. At least for Mamoa, don't remember for the other booths. But what they will do this time we won't know until the day.

pretenama2012 Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Does anyone know what the exclusive gift is that comes with the diamond pass? What is it usually? I'm guessing a print or mug? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gifts are usually tat, but that’s not what you’re paying for I suppose, rather the exclusivity of the DP and time saved queuing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally buy Diamond Pass, then contact the store with both order numbers and they'll refund the photo. But at this point II'd honestly check with the store first, they may not allow upgrades that late anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
