I've just got a Judge Dredd Standee and recognise the style but of course have no idea who's it is.
Identification (artist, year it was used etc)appreciated!

I must say it's very impressive, over 6ft tall and in many ways the way I would expect Dredd to be in person (and I met him in FP once lol)

That'll be Cliff Robinson that will.

?8.50... bargin... oh and ?9 postage, still a good price.

[Last of the V8's]

You lucky bugger.
You realise we all will want one now so prices will rocket.

Thanks Umpty :)

Well not even ?9 postage as he lives in the same town as me, dropped it off at work for me and I got a lift home so I was very happy yesterday.
I just rounded it off to ?10 in total.
He said he got it in a sale the day before he put it on Ebay, the bloke he bought it from really didn't want to sell it but the woman he was with was very happy to see it go!

So is there a Moniave Comic Festival this year?

If so count this long necked but tiny brained dinosaur as attending.

Maybe we could have a McShedcon as well?

Marvellous - I'd checked the site a few weeks ago but couldn't see anything.

I think that I might stay over this year... Time to start another thread to see who fancies going along I think...

[W. R. Logan]

I'm there from the 1st - 10th so if anyone from the boards coming let me know and we can meet up, McShed:Con 1.

I've had no luck with Moniaive in past years, due to work and holiday commitments, so this year I'm determined to go.

McShedcon 1 is a must.

This could be one for me... My Brother and I are walking The Southern Upland Way,(sounds kind of Nu Earth) in easy stages. This passes nearby, so I maybe able to combine two birds with one visit, three if you count drinking.
 
How about a bit background? Any reports fi previous Moniaive gigs? How big is it numbers wise? What's the social side like? Would I have to talk or smile or any of those social skills things they keep trying to teach me?

Huffy B-)

[Tiplodocus]

It's great because as Comic Events go, this one is small and intimate.  

You get plenty of time to chat one on one with the creators.

I was at a writing panel with Alan Grant and John Wagner and there were only about a dozen people in the room.

Socially, I would imagine it's great too but I can't say really as I've never stayed until everybody heads to the pub. I did meet up with that nice PVS last year which made it easier to get round.  

I plan to stay over this year and put in some quality beer time, especially as our piscine Monarch will be in attendance.
