Shame buddy, was going to say get down to Hatfield on the train and Id pick you up. Next time!!

Chris (Jedi Masters), you offered me a lift but I'm gonna motor down there myself. Thanks for the offer though buddy. If anyone needs a lift from West London let me know. I can always divert a bit or pick up from the nearest tube station. ( hammersmith ) 8)

Lee, mate, no problem buddy, you going down just for the Sunday??

Is anyone going down for Saturday eve?????

Is it possible some of the people going could PM thier mobile numbers?? Never met anybody on here before so will be good to have a few contacts for when I get there.

 

[Lee77]

Just the Sunday mate. It's only about a 90 minute drive so probably leave around 9am. Looking forward to it. I'll pm you my number later on. No calling me up and heavy breathing though :lol:

Any suggestions for a theme user-contribution pop up display?

GW Acrylic will be sponsoring the display.

The idea is we pick a theme and then on the day as many folk bring an item from their own collection connected to the theme and place on the display for the day.
It's pretty cool as you have no idea of the results of the exhibit until the day itself.

The theme could be something very straight forward like:
Palitoy
Darth Vader

etc etc

but some of the most interesting and engaging displays can come from a topic which leaves it very open to interpretation, for example:
The Thing I Wanted As A Kid But Never Got
Bounty Hunter Points
My Favourite Non-Figure Related Item
This Is The One Item I Would Rescue In A Fire
What Things Cost Originally
Guilty Pleasure

etc etc.
If anyone has a suggestion, we can hold a poll or something to narrow down the topic for the first display

Sorry Dave only just seen this, put me down as a maybe!

Update:

GW Acrylic will be providing a FREE loose figure case to all attendees.

I am also hoping to showcase (pun intended!) a few new products including Acrylic Display Steps specifically designed for IKEA display cases.

I look forward to meeting everyone in September.

Regards,
Christian

Very generous Christian.

I assume that you will be taking a supply of MOC cases? I have all of my MOCs in Star Cases but may take the plunge!!

Will you have your new case design for the Meccano square cards by then?

I might even be persuaded to make an overnight stop, but no star wars cocktails this time.
