Auto Assembly's own Simon Pumbe has recorded a short message on YouTube showing that the Challenge and Cybertron sets that will be given away at Auto Assembly 2010 are now in hand with him in Birmingham England. The sets will be given to 30 people at the event and are not scheduled for a UK release, nor have they been released within the US yet. You can view that video below along with the previous video from a few days ago which includes the announcement of this years toy display that will be put on by none other than this websites owners.
It's hard to
believe that Auto Assembly 2010 is only NINE days away. Fans across
Europe have been anticipating the arrival of the convention for so long
this year and with an incredible guest line-up and some of the best
activities we have ever arranged, this is shaping up to be our best
convention ever.
Even with the convention being so close, there
are still some of you who haven't booked your tickets yet! We have said
this repeatedly but please don't leave it until it is too late and hope
to be able to come on the day. While we may have some on-the-door
places, we can't guarantee how many we will have and they will be on a
first come, first served basis. We won't announce how many of these we
will have until pre-registrations close so advance booking is your only
way to GUARANTEE admission to this year's convention.
Because we
are so close now, we have revised our bookings deadlines to make it as
easy as possible for you all to get your tickets. The FINAL deadline for
all bookings is the morning of Wednesday 11th August 2010. However, if
your booking reaches us on this date, we will NOT be able to post your
passes out to you. Monday 9th August is the booking deadline for people
within the UK to have your passes sent out to ensure that they reach you
in time for the convention. After that point - and for ALL
international bookings - we will send your confirmation email out as
normal but arrange for you to collect your passes when you arrive so
make sure you bring a print out of these emails with you.
We
have also extended the postal booking deadlines. However, you need to
use the NEW postal booking form that we have uploaded to the website
today and there is a new postal address and cheque payment details that
you need to use which will allow us to process your bookings. Postal
bookings must be received by no later than Monday 9th August.
There
are about 75 full weekend passes available still, and less than 40 one
day passes for the Sunday, but one day passes for the Saturday are sold
out! With ticket sales doing so well, booking now, or getting a
Non-Attendee Pack could be your only way of getting this year's
convention exclusive comic - the convention variant cover of IDW's
Transformers Issue 9 with new cover art by Nick Roche and Liam Shalloo,
produced for the convention by Toyz And Gamez (www.toyzandgamez.co.uk)
Spanning
the weekend of Friday 13th - Sunday 15th August 2010 at the The Holiday
Inn Birmingham City Centre, Birmingham, England, the convention is
playing host to a staggering 14 guests including three guests of honour
(Garry Chalk, Scott McNeil and Derrick J Wyatt), and will feature toy
and art displays, dealers, comic guests, free autograph sessions, a
video games area, free workshops run by many of our guests, dedicated
childrens programming, video screenings and more! There will also be
Friday and Saturday evening programmes, exclusive for weekend attendees
and the Saturday evening will play host to a massive musical party,
costume competition, our voice actors will take to the stage to perform a
BRAND NEW script written by Simon Furman and the chance to win one of
THIRTY sets of the Challenge At Cybertron sets donated by Hasbro... and
we still have LOADS more to announce!
For more details on the
convention, to see a full list of all the guests and activities taking
place over the weekend, or to book your tickets, visit the website at www.autoassembly.org.uk
Are you a kitbasher well you might be interested in this latest mini-announcement from the Auto Assembly team
Due to a line up change, we have unfortunately been left without a kitbasher for this year's event. I'm writing to ask whether anybody would be willing to help us out here.... We are looking for somebody to run a Kitbash segment on both Saturday and Sunday - both will be at 10:00am - 11.30am in one of our side rooms.
Please note - you don't necessarily have to run a workshop with demos etc, but it would be good for an experienced kitbasher to maybe show off some of their work and answer questions / give tips.
If you think you can help, please drop us a line urgently at autoassembly@aol.com

The figure was from the customising class which was assembly and sold onto a dealer at Botcon. It then made its way to Japan, where is was listed on the Auction site and was won by an overseas bidder using the Rinkya bidding service.
Our thanks to Phill and King Grimlock for correcting us on the origins of the figure.
