I'm going to all three days so if anyone else is going on their own and wants to hang out, my twitter is the same as my forum username. I'd love to meet some of you there!

I'll be there all 3 days!
You can recognize me by my t-shirt, bearing the same logo as my websites logo below!

See you there! Hopefully.

Have you seen the update?

TMNT guests at the LFCC are now:

Kevin Eastman - co creator
Dan Slott - Writer of the Archie series "Year of the Turtle"
Robert Englund - Dire Beaver and Dread Beaver
Kelly Hu - Karai
Michelan Sisti - Michelangelo (90's movies)
Leif Tilden - Donatello (90's movies)
Nick Palma - stunt Mikey (90's movies)

Are they going to sit together as part of some TMNT Q&A or appear seperate? If they appear seperate I'd guess Slott and Englund would be promoted for their other work.

Only the 3 turtles Michelan, Nick and Leif will have a photoshoot together

So...anymore Dromers going?

Just one more bump.
7 TMNT people will be at the London Film and Comic Con this weekend.
Any Dromers going? I'll be there, wearing a t-shirt with my logo!

Have fun, looking foward to your report when you get back! :tsmile:

Thanks man!

Well, I wasn't planning on going but I've just seen on Kevin Eastman's home page that he's doing a cover for a special edition comic for the show. It's unclear if this is a cover for a TMNT comic or if it's a generic convention comic that just happens to have a TMNT themed cover. (Is this cover being discussed elsewhere? I couldn't see any posts about it?) Either way, I want it! Thus it looks like I'll be going after all. Will have to be the Friday as all other days are sold out.

If that's the case Cheesebrush, you mind picking up an extra copy of the comic for me please? :)

Was considering attending this. I have family commitments around that weekend, so its a no go.

Hope all going have a great time!

Ah too bad, well I'll make a report about it when I'm back in my autograph collection thread!

Hope he doesn't mind signing my ex-library book containing issues 5-8. The pages are falling out but it holds special for me because it's what introduced me to the Mirage Turtles.

Well if any Dromers spot me, would be cool to say hi.

I will keep an eye open for you tomorrow!

Well I just got back and whilst the queue to get in was very long it seemed much better organised than last year (although today was the supposedly the "quiet" day) and it only took 30 mins to get in after the doors were opened.

But that was really where the improvements ended. The rest seemed like amateur hour - it really was just an exercise in extracting as much money from everyone as possible!

I was about 5th in line for Kevin Eastman and got my original TMNT art portfolio signed (for a fee of £15 of course! And that fee was per autograph!) I also picked up one of his convention sketches.

However there was no sign of the "comic" with the Turtles/Beatles Abbey Road parody cover. Neither Kevin nor his wife knew what had happened to it. They just knew it was a 48 page booklet printed by the London Film and Comic Con (LFCC) showcasing a selection of Kevin's artwork. They hadn't even seen a copy of it themselves!

I looked round the rest of the show and asked at a few organisers desks but no-one knew anything about it. After a few hours of shopping and looking at stuff, I accidentally stumbled across a stand tucked away in a nearly deserted corner of the second floor selling prints and booklets and it turned out it was this stand that had all the LFCC exclusive stuff including the TMNT art booklet plus a print of the Abbey Road parody artwork.

The poor lady on the stand had several boxes of the TMNT stuff and I told her Kevin Eastman was desperately trying to find it for his signing but there was no-one around who could take it down to him at the other end of the convention centre on the floor below! Useless!
Even more strange was that the artwork Kevin had done especially for the cover of the art booklet wasn't actually used for the cover at all; it was relegated to the back page!

Once I'd bought a copy I went and told Kevin's wife where she could find them. Both her and Kevin had a quick look at the book and couldn't believe the new art hadn't been used for the cover either!

Disappointingly, I couldn't find Dan Slott (writer of the Archie Year of the Turtle series) anywhere, so had to do without his autograph. And I didn't see Rutger either! Although that might be something to do with the fact it was a huge show with about a bazillion people there.

Anyway, below are a few pictures of the LFCC art booklet and print I got. Both the book and the print were £10 each (approx $15 each)

Awesome. I'm still here for the whole weekend. Kevin, Leif, Nick and Michelan are awesome. They where really happy to finally meet me. I talk with them a lot.
I'll post everything when I'm back.

There is actually another TMNT related person you can get on your autograph list - artist Jack Lawrence (aka TinpotHobo on Twitter).
He was the artist on the first couple of issues of the recent UK ninja turtles comic for Paninni. On Friday he was on the 2nd floor in the comics zone right near the toilets!
