Mayamada At MCM Expo Recap

Nigel November 1, 2011 2 Comments

This weekend saw our first appearance at the MCM Expo in East London.  For those that don’t know about it, MCM is the biggest celebration of all things gaming sci-fi anime, manga, cosplay and general geekiness in the UK.

MCM is about the same as the New York Comic Con, but the cost of travel is much cheaper for us 🙂

We took the mayamada team down for three days of non stop standing on your feet, but it was so worth the lower back damage because we had an amazing time talking to loads of friendly and passionate people as well as make new friends and fans along the way.

Here are some of the best moments from the show…

We visited MCM in May but now that we had a stall we got to skip the lines.

Even though the area was massive, it didn’t take too long to find our spot.

 

 

Once we set up our stall we were off and running!

We’re now only two days away from the MCM Expo at London Excel and we’re running around to bring everything together just right.

If you making your way down on any of the days from the 28th-30th, be sure to stop by our stall and say hi.

Here’s a sneek peak at some of what you’ll find waiting for you…of course we have our t-shirts including the new 11th Hour design.

 

 

Every package will come with a manga page and a few other surprises…

We’ll also be giving away these very cool oystercard holders for all cosplayers that take part in our competition…or if you ask us nicely 🙂

 

 

Plus, there will be regular giveaways every 90 minutes throughout the three days of the event.  All you have to do is get a ticket from us and see if yours is the winning one….that’s it!  We won’t tell you what the prize is…We don’t want to spoil the surprise!

Be sure to come by our stall when you visit MCM this weekend and hang out with us – just look for the guys in mayamada t-shirts having a great time ^_^
