Title: UK Ponycon - Anyone going to be there?
Post by: EeveeMUA on July 19, 2014, 03:26:24 AM
Hi all!

I'm so excited as last night my boyfriend confirmed with me that we'd be heading to the UK Ponycon as a birthday treat for me.  I just about died when he told me!  :frolic:

This will be my first Ponycon and I can't wait, will anyone else be there?  Would be wonderful to meet fellow collectors from the Arena  ^.^

At least you'll still get to go though!  :biggrin:

Oh I'm far too excited, I've a fear of literally passing out on arrival haha.

I'm going to have to majorly pre-plan who I want to buy, otherwise I'll end up having to empty my clothes from my suitcase to get home!  :whoa:

I'll most likely be floating about in my Princess Celestia cosplay on the Saturday no doubt, so be sure to say hello if you see me  ^.^

Woohoo, adventures to Ponycon!  I'd love to come to the US one year for the fair it seems fantastic!
My boyfriend and I will be getting the dreaded Megabus down from Glasgow, 8 hours. :yikes:  Not looking forward to that part, but I've done it before for about 9-10 hours to London for Comic-con so a couple hours less for Ponycon is even more worthwhile! Not sure my boyfriend agrees with that mind you .. haha

Anyone have one specific pony they'll be on the hunt for at the con?

So excited! I'm all booked already apart from the train  :)

I'll be there. Staying 4 nights! (Extra day before and after when my mister is joining me) and seeing Jon Richardson on the Sunday evening (he's so funny!).

Having a stall full of nonsense, can't wait to meet people. Please let me know if you're going to be available for a few drinks Friday or Saturday because I got a bit lonely last year and was very shy and alone! I'm 31, mother (child will not be with me).

I love a rum and coke myself!

If you're booking at the Mercure I highly recommend you book through their website. I don't know if you've seen the offer they have for Ponycon attendees, but it was like £89 per night for a double room with breakfast, but we had a look online and booked it without breakfast and saved us £40, it was working at £10 a day for breakfast.  I was not up for paying that when there is so many places accessible around the hotel for food for much cheaper.  Not sure of course if that suits what your looking for, but I thought 40 quid for two days breakfast was a bit much!

Tnx for the hint of the breakfast! i was thinking in book on the Mercure using the offer, but ssen from that point of view is much more cheaper book from the web and take a bit of food outside. Im go to book tomorrow.

I've just moved to Manchester. So its not really far, its just that the following week is a busy and stressful one, got to go back to Telford on the Monday ready for court on the Tuesday (my old next door neighbour broke someone's leg and we're the only witnesses) =-O and then on the Saturday its my father-in-law's wedding in Leeds, my husband's family are all quite hard work so he's not looking forward to it, which means I'm not either! Sooo with all that, ponycon would be the best thing to lead up to it, but its just whether I can justify the extra travelling and costs, and of course pony money! :-P
But if I can convince hubby we can just go for the Sunday I will! :-D

best to start a new topic asking about PCs (you can link it here) - and state you will be selling them in the UK at PonyCon ;-)
it is only a couple of prices that are "hugely" different over here.

As a general guideline:
UK/Euro releases tend to be cheaper than in the US - Petites/Dream Beauties more.
US releases obviously more too.
German Babies are definetly popular ad if you have any I might push Lisey in front of your stall  ;-)

I think I may be setting myself up for a fall.... I have barely started on my stall prep, as my little one makes it very hard to find the time to do anything (i.e. when he isn't around, as he would definitely try and 'help'!). It's also been hard to get time off over the summer as lots of other people had it booked off, and I'm still getting into the swing of being back at work.

So I have a few days booked off work before the con (I only work part time anyway), and plan on doing it all then - eek!

Dude, I feel you completely. I am barely getting enough sleep, and the huge list of around 100 items I wanted to have ready has been whittled down to about 10. (yeah, honestly, my stall is going to look like a badly-stocked car boot sale). I also haven't yet bought most of the stuff to decorate my stall, and not sewn the stuff I was supposed to sew, and not painted... yadda yadda yadda.

I'm LOSING IT and I have no time off work left to take (full-time).  I'm going to have to admit that actually, I was aiming far too high with this one!  :blush: :shocked: :huh: :( >_< -_-

I'll be attending on Saturday only, as it's very busy in the office at the moment and I couldn't take time off work. If anyone else is taking the train from London on Satuday morning and back that night, let me know!

I've bought a 1 day ticket, still not decided which day to attend as I'm not sure what events are happening when. Anybody recommend what the best day to go will be?
Title: Re: UK Ponycon - Anyone going to be there?
Post by: salemsparkler on September 29, 2014, 04:47:37 AM
saturday is usually the busiest - I'll check with events if we can reveal timetables and stuff...
Title: Re: UK Ponycon - Anyone going to be there?
Post by: LadyGuinevere on September 29, 2014, 01:33:17 PM
If you want to shop, Saturday would probably be best as there are more stalls ;)
Title: Re: UK Ponycon - Anyone going to be there?
Post by: daisyd on September 29, 2014, 11:40:26 PM
I'm part of the events team ^^ not been given clearance to publish the entire timetable, but can give you some idea of what's what!

As LadyG said, Saturday will be your better shopping day. We also have the creative contests and charity auction on Saturday, so if you're going to be bringing custom ponies, or dressing in cosplay, they'll be judged on Saturday.

We're having Sunday Funday this year, so that day has more games and events running.

I've been super busy all day sorting and pricing and almost there now but I have a table full of unfinished customs to get on with also - eep!!

Who is all planning on hitting the after party on the Saturday night in the hotel? Curious as I know some folk would like to meet for drinks and what not, and I guess the party would be a good place to do so!

We are now attending both days and will probably be at the After-Party too :dance2:

We moved house on Wednesday, so we are surrounded by boxes and have spent nearly all weekend trying to get some semblance of order in the house! :whew: I think we really need a good fun chillout weekend next week - CAN'T WAIT !!!  :frolic:

I'm staying at the Mercure anyway, so I'm definitely up for it.
It's ideal with the party being there as I'm going to be there with boyfriend in tow, so if he gets fed up with pony shenanigans he can head back to the room! haha

What colour is your hair right now? I am trying to work out how you did this princess celestia hair... it really is fabulous.
Title: Re: UK Ponycon - Anyone going to be there?
Post by: EeveeMUA on October 05, 2014, 04:22:13 PM
My hair is just brown at the moment.  The Celestia hair is a wig, although I wish it was mine! It makes me miss having colourful locks. Haha

I'll have it on with my Celestia cosplay on the Saturday during the day so it'll be easy enough to spot me then!
Title: Re: UK Ponycon - Anyone going to be there?
Post by: squishy turdl on October 05, 2014, 04:27:52 PM
Wow, thats one damn good wig...

I already have turquoise, pink and purple dyes at home and I've been thinking about how to do it..

We'll see if I have time between now and Saturday.. xx

Title: Re: UK Ponycon - Anyone going to be there?
Post by: EeveeMUA on October 05, 2014, 04:52:26 PM
It was expensive so I'd hope it's a good one! Haha
I always have a stock pile of coloured dyes at home,  I think I need to get rid of them as they're just too much of a temptation when I'm trying to keep my hair healthy! :P
 
Side note,  I actually have a spare one of the wig for sale if you're interested at all. It's an older one and as I got a replacement I'm selling this one on.

You can buy your con pony still at the Ponycon Merch stall on the day - there are some left. xx

If you come both days, just make sure you get there nice and early xx

@Corona - your art will be in the conbook and I think our arts coordinator Tinrobo was going to hold one each back for the artists and send it to them in the post as a thank you. If you'd like to you can email her your address already.

There's a Build-A-Bear in the Highcross shopping centre, but Trixie is only online, so they don't have her in.

Y'know, it's only just occurred to me that now Ponycon is coming to Leicester, it's even more sad that Dominoes Toy Shop closed down last year :( That thing was huge and it was such a shame to see it go.

I am surprisingly close to being done on my Con prep! Taking much less than previous times, but that's probably a good thing as I never have enough space.

Was indeed very busy! Consistently so as well, without the usual lull. Nice to see a number of kids there too :)

I had an absolutely PonyTAstic day! Loved the panels, the cosplay, the nostalgia for G1... I spent the whole day going around yelling "I used to have that one!" and of course the amazing atmosphere. Next year I'm definitely hoping to do both days.

Here's my haul :

What a fantastic PonyCon!!  :thumb:

Met lots of lovely people (you know who you are ;) ), great entertainment, lots of Cosplayers - again Archer never ceases to amaze with her costumes  :worshippy: , and of course far too many lovely pony goodies on sale that couldn't be ignored  ;)
