Yup, I will be there. Working on a variant issue for the show now as well as some other items that will be available. We'll share details soon. As always, I'm really looking forward to the show.

I wasn't going to go, but because Harris is there, I've decided to go. It's an early bird for me. I'll be gone by 12.00.

Thanks to various rail closures, it's going to be a journey and a half for me adding around 3 hours Shake Head

BTW, last time I went there Ray Harryhausen was in attendance.

I'm either asking " who? " or " not again " Roll Eyes . There is still time for them to add some quality to the guest line up, I just don't hold out much hope for that as the current show owners seem to want to spend as little money as possible to maximise profits.

Would not be surprised if I enter at 09.00 and leave at 11.00 having seen everything worth looking at. At least I will be home in time for the football.

I must admit that is what i thought when i skimmed through it however Lynn Lowry and Vera Day are two names from my long ago past that would be of intrest and Liza Ross is a James Bond name that even Rittenhouse have never got to autograph.

Who was Liza Ross in "Tomorrow Never Dies" (1997) ? I looked her up on the IMDB but the role does not ring a bell

Does anybody know which dealers will be there? It would be useful if UK dealers told us they were coming and contact details for anything we might want to order. UK dealers seem to operate a secret service!

I have asked Jason at Cult Stuff and Dean Rogers who owns TopCards but have not heard back from either. I know from speaking to those that did have space at the March show that they felt the over emphasis on cos-play from the show owners was hurting sales to the extent that the cost did not justify attending.

Below is the show exclusive promo card that I'll be giving away at the Non-Sport Update table. This Iron Dead Legends promo featuring art by Dennis Willman is numbered MBCC-01. The card is produced by Iron Dead Studios.

Hope to see lots of collectors at the show!

Cosplay is likely to get bigger and bigger at this show, just look at their London events.

I hope to be there to renew my subscription.

I understand that this is exclusive to the show and not part of the variant issue
