Thanks Triple-Frog.
It is a bit strange having a picture popup like that if it's nothing to do with the show. Maybe the movie will screened at the show. And I would love to meet Liv (fingers crossed) get copy of Empire Records signed .

Interesting that you can only buy early-bird tickets in advance for Saturday and now for Sunday ( See this page )

Early Entry Family special (2 adults & 3 child) November 2008: £36 (inc £1 admin fee)

This is not going to cheap for those Attending the Show. They do not normally charge for Early Bird Entry on Sunday, seems like they are trying to squeeze a little more cash from the punters for the same product!

So much for the new regime.

I thought they would learn from the previous lots errors but obviously not.

Purchased my tickets so I will be going

Couldn't see any mention of the on the day prices.

I'll have to remember the ticket stub and hand Stamp as well,or end up having to buy another ticket.

Taken from the latest news section of the Memorbilia site:

The Memorabilia show is set to make waves at the NEC this Winter. The shows are now part of the MCM Expo Group and plans are underway to bring a new energy, features and fun activities.

Winter Memorabilia Show a FAMILY event for movies, video games, cult tv, comics, sport & music.

Be the first to see new toy ranges & games before they are in the shops. Take home show exclusives and freebies. Memorabilia Show is a haven for collectors, you'll find everything from comics to replica props. You can also buy rare records, sporting memorabilia, DVD’s, posters, autographs, trading cards, manga, video games, costumes, action figures & much more. Vintage toys from the 1940’s onwards


By the looks of it we might finally have some show exclusives.

Interesting that the only update to the site is the price of the tickets. Early bird entry plus train fare comes close to £70 so I would like to at least know what guests they have lined up before I part with my hard-earned

Good point. Theres only what about 13 weeks to the show and only Wes Craven has been announced. Having said that the mods on thier board have said guest's have been lined-up they just have'nt released the info yet.

I have been trying to book dealer tables adn dispite phone calls and emails they do not respond. This is a bad sign for me and have decided to keep the money and not even attend now.

According to MCM forum as of 13th August Wes Craven is no longer attending.

Thare's Harris and Alan Caplan remember. They are reason enough to attend memorabilia

I will be releasing information very soon on which day I'll be attending. Photographs will be £1 and autographs 50p. If you wish I'll do a simple sketch for 10p, but I don't want to do too many in case Topps kidnap me

The admin on their forum have said they will start releasing guest info in September.
