Auto Assembly: Target 2006 Pre-Registrations Closed
 
With just FOUR DAYS to go, if you haven't pre-registered for Auto Assembly:  Target 2006, it's too late! We have officially closed bookings today for what is  hopefully going to be the biggest ever Transformers convention in Europe, but it  doesn't mean you can't attend...
 
Pre-registrations have been great this year and we managed to beat the number of pre-registrations that we had for Auto Assembly 2005 and going by this rate we are well on target to beat the total number of attendees that we had last year which was 409. For those of you who were lucky enough to have beaten the booking deadline, we have sent out all of the confirmation packs and these  should be with you any time now.
 
For those of you who have booked or who are coming along on the day, we  have now put all the details on the website on what you need to do on the day  and the procedures for checking in and how long we expect it will take. If you  are thinking of coming along, we can now confirm that we have approximately 120
 spaces left for anyone coming on the day so there should be spaces for most of  you thinking of travelling to Birmingham although we would suggest arriving  early to be at the front of the queue!
 
If you want to know more, please check out the Auto Assembly website at www.autoassembly.org.uk  or if you have  any
questions please visit the forum at http://autoassembly.proboards7.com where some of our team will try to answer any of your questions as quickly as  possible.
 
Well, that's it for this final update. We're really excited about this  
year's convention and we can't wait to see as many of you as possible on  Saturday!

CybertronCinema.net have posted some more rumours regarding the vehicles and cast of the new Transformers film. The information should be taken with a healthy dose of salt because the VA auditions were last reported as 'still to be held'.

TV-Nihon have completed yet another Transformers fan-subbing with their release today of Transformers: Victory episode 19. Get it whilst the seeding is hot.

After last year's succes with One Prime Night in Amsterdam with Neil Kaplan, Seibertron members Hans and Raymond T arranged arranged for David Kaye, Voice-actor for the Megatrons in Beast Wars, Beast Machines, Armada, Energon and Cybertron, to take some time and meet a select group of Dutch fans on June 4th.

Want to join this exclusive meet and greet with one of the more popular voice actors within the Transformers universe, who is also know for his services in GI Joe Extreme, X-Men: Evolution and the Ratchet & Clank video games, please contact me at
Raymond-T@triplemprod.net.

The get-together is to be held Sunday June 4th at 19.00 in Amsterdam. E-mail the address above if you want to be part of the meet and to get your details.

David Kaye will also be a special guest at the Auto Assembly in Birmingham, UK, the day before on June 3rd.

We are pleased to announce the Cougar statue will be available for pre order next Saturday at Auto Assembly.

There is no money to be paid up front you simply enter your name and email address onto the pre order sheets provided at the TFauctions.com tables and we will email you when the statue is ready for shipping.

We only have 250 of these left, as the other 250 have been pre sold to retailers. This is the first time we are publicly putting the statue's on pre order as an offer to all AA attendee's.



If all pre orders are not filled at the show we then be taking the remaining pre orders on line as of Sunday 4^th June 2006.

Again there are only 250 left and once they have gone they have gone no more will be mad only the run of 500. The statue will also come with a free mini comic on the story of Cougar.

The statue may be at AA but due to time and the fact that he is being made in Argentina we will probably have extremely Hi Res pictures of him from every angle possible.

Thanks again and we look forward to seeing everyone next Saturday at AA 2006.

Auto Assembly: Target 2006 Major News Update!
 
Hi everyone!
 
We're only SIX days away now from Auto Assembly: Target 2006 on 3rd June  
here in Birmingham, England and we thought we'd bring you another news update  
covering a few key areas of the convention. We've got important updates on  
bookings, the charity auction and more besides...
 
BOOKINGS
 
Bookings are still coming in and we want to update you all on the situation  
here. For everyone who has pre-registered so far, we have now sent out all of  
the confirmation slips/packs for everyone who has pre-registered up to
midnight  on Friday 26th May 2006. All of bookings we have received since then will
be  posted out Tuesday 30th May by first class post and should reach you by
Thursday  1st June at the latest.
 
However, for those of you who do live in the UK and who have not pre-booked  
there is STILL time to pre-register IF you book in the next 48 hours! As long
as  we receive your booking online by 10:00 am on Tuesday 30th May, we will be
able  to process them and send them out the same day. We can't guarantee to
process  any bookings received beyond this point.
 
At 11:00 am on 30th May we will be making the final draw to see who is  
taking part in the consulation exercise taking place at the convention so you  
still have a chance to get involved in that part of the convention as  well!!
 
PLACES REMAINING
 
At the time of writing, there are approximately 130 places left for Auto  
Assembly: Target 2006 including on-the-door places which is fewer than last  
year. While Auto Assembly 2005 was NOT a complete sell out, we have had  
considerably more bookings than last year at this point and we are expecting to  have
more places confirmed in the next couple of days that have been  provisionally
reserved so this figure will be reduced. With expected local press  coverage
also expected prior to the convention we still STRONGLY recommend  pre-booking
while you still can.
 
CHARITY AUCTION
 
For those of you interested, we are hoping to be able to take credit card  
payments (via PayPal) for items in the charity auction. We are currently working
 on having internet access at the convention although this will be for  
admistrative use only. We must stress that such payments will be subject to a 5%  
handling fee as we are charged by PayPal for all payments received. We will
also  be able to accept card payments for purchases from the Auto Assembly  
registration desk for merchandise including copies of our event magazine, other  
items and Titan Books graphic novels that we will be selling.
 
GUIDO GUIDI SKETCHES
 
Guido Guidi will be doing sketches for fans at Auto Assembly although we  
have been asked by sponsors TF Auctions to stress that - because of time - these  
will be limited although Guidi will be happy to sign autographs throughout
the  day.
 
GOODIE BAG UPDATE
 
While we were preparing the goodie bag, we have been able to confirm the  
exact numbers of most of the items we have available in the packs for everyone  
this year. The situation is as follows:- Ladbird G1 books (first 139
attendees),  G2 Colouring/Activity books (first 294 attendees), Cards Inc G1 Stickers
(first  340 attendees), and for every attendee are:- Auto Assembly Postcard #002
(Simon  Williams), Auto Assembly Postcard #003 (Guido Guidi), Model &
Collector's  Mart magazine, and a bag of Transform-A-Snacks. We are still waiting for
a  delivery of assorted items from Metrodome which will include various
postcards  but we don't know how many of these there will be.
 
COLOURING COMPETITION
 
One for all our younger attendees... we've got a free competition lined up.  
Just pick up a colouring sheet with a lineart version of one of our postcards  
and a FREE pack of colouring pencils from the registration desk and just hand
 your entry in later in the day to be judged by some of our guests. We've got
 some great prizes on offer for the winners!
 
* * *
 
Well, that's it for this update so you've only got TWO DAYS to decide if  you
want to pre-register but we want to see as many of you there as possible to  
help us break the European Transformers Convention attendance record for the  
second year running! It's going to be another great event and we'd love to see
 you all there. Book online or find out more at _www.autoassembly.org.uk_
(http://www.autoassembly.org.uk)  to decide if  you want to come along on the day
and we hope to see you all on Saturday!
