Been to them all, they've gradually got bigger and bigger in regard to the number of people turning up.
They've opened a covered area up this year for queuing if it's raining.

Wasn't there long today, and didn't bump into any guys from the Forum.

Not much vintage really, one stall had some nice mocs, but bit on the prices side, some loose figures vintage, but again bit pricey really.

Managed to pick up a 12 inch vintage stormy bit of a beater, but that's fine for me, need a beater vader and han Luke and R2 now!

We were there. Saw more vintage this year than previous years. Nothing that I was looking for but a decent representation IMHO.

Lots of thrilled kids too which is what the day was all about. Congrats to all who organised.

Hello,

Couldn't make Burnley today but hope to go to the next one. :)

Couldn't make this today. Too busy and it was too wet. Looks like some decent cosplay this year :)

Really enjoyed the event, been to the last 5 and it gets better. Run by fans for fans and a great family friendly atmosphere.

Looks like a great event. We had planned on going this year as for once we were free on May BH - only for them to change the date :evil:

Next year...

Bossk was pretty good, and the C3PO was brilliant.
My first ever post here, but I needed to say thanks for the kind words. I was the Bossk and to even be mentioned in the same sentence as the fantastic C3-P0 (Pedge) is a huge compliment to my costume.
It was great to chat to Alan Harris, in and out of costume and a fun day in general.

The Bossk kit was great, really stood out, and detail was great, right down to the feet.
Congrats great costume 8)
