Ah Collectormania. A twice annual gathering of scifi fans and fetishists. Every year, Griff and I go and browse. Last time Griff was into Gormiti. Before that it was Doctor Who and a year earlier it was Star Wars. Before that one, the masks scared him and didn't understand that many of the things that looked like toys weren't to be played with.

This time he was into Star Wars again but ditched me to browse on his own. So, it's that time already.

Oh, love the people in costume. I've always been amused by the bad taste of the fake executions set up for photos vowing I'd never do it. But when I went up to the Stormtrooper he barked 'get down rebel scum ... hands on your head'. Without thinking found myself in a fake execution. Jeez. It doesn't take much to turn me into a creature of the spinal cord.

Fishsausage - have you seen the his and her's Once Were Warriors t-shirt set? His says 'Make me some eggs' and her's says 'Make your own f- eggs'. Only in Auckland, I reckon.

Thanks zizzi - though I realise that my standard look is grinning fool.

what's worse is that tem is now back on shortland street:
"you're not on tattooine now, dr ropata"

taniwha says:

Really? I saw Tem in Devonport about 10 years ago. The mighty Jango Fett is a short arse. SHORTland Street indeed.

Good performance in Once Were Warriors though ... but a million miles away from the pot bellied Mongrel Mob members we used to see rolling around Mangere Town Centre though.

Hahahaha. Not sure how i missed this. I haven't sauntered through a collectormania in ages, but i'm constantly amazed at the advertised guests, which seem to get better every time they hold these events.

it's a hoot Nige. The thing about it is, no matter the stature of the celebrity, when they are signing autographs they all end up looking like caged animals in a human zoo.
