Anyone going to Memorabilia?

[dis]

OK I appreciate the rise in costs but look at the prices for the equivalent November 2007 Memorabilia

"Early bird 15GBP in advance or 16GBP on-the-day
Family early bird 35GBP in advance or 40GBP on-the-day

Standard prices 10GBP in advance or 11GBP on-the-day
Family Standard price 25GBP in advance or 30GBP on-the-day

Child/Senior Citizen 5GBP in advance or on-the-day

Advance booking - save 2GBP on car parking"

Notes : Early birds were just for Saturday, ALL tickets could be booked online and the car parking was reduced.

Compare that with the free-to-park/free-to-enter shopping centre shows and its easy to see why Memorabilia numbers have dropped away over the years

Any possibility you can offer a slightly reduced 2-day early bird for those coming Saturday and Sunday ?

I do hope you can pull Memorabilia around and good luck with this first one

An EXCELLENT idea.

I was going to go...but given the cost of tickets it might depend on the guests, and the lateness of the guest announcements.

The costs have dropped from previous events.

You won't be on your own, nekromantixx .. other cosplayers have confirmed to be going. I will be looking out for other cosplayers both days.

I have been to many MEMs before now and some have been exceptional with a monumental line-up of guests and others....well, let's just say that we left early on those days. How ever, I am fully intending to give the new folks a chance but, just one thing.....

The guest line-up as it is HAS TO IMPROVE SIGNIFICANTLY. It's OK if you are an older DrWho fan, but at present it is still very weak.

We need a lot more A-Line guests for a pay-to-enter event, and right now...they just aren't there.

I will be trying to get to this one

Depends on how MCM Expo Telford goes.
Me and my brother were discussing about going to the last one but we missed it. But as its at the NEC and we're brummies, it just depends on funds and how Telford goes. Our first con

I'll definately be going. I think there are some great Doctor Who names - new and old. Can't wait to see what other film names get announced!

I'm going with at least five friends who aren't on the forums.

I really want to go but I want to ask a few questions first...

1) Do a lot of people cosplay? I am an anime/manga fan and I am a bit worried about looking out of place if I come down in cosplay.

2) I think someone mentioned that the manga/anime section is rather small. Is it? cause I don't want to travel all the way to birmingham if that's the case.

3) The ticket you buy... does it cover both days or is it just for one day?

I'd be grateful for any help

I agree on the guests thing... I'm not into wrestling OR dr who... I was kinda hoping there would be a nice little manga/anime icon...

shame I can't get to london... I quite like Brad Swalie <3 lol.
