Hello Folks,

Just back from the Telford drop, very good it was to.

We did find however that the phrase "can we take a photo of you guys" translated to "can I take a picture of your alien".

We all know what a camera whore Gareth is, so he was only too happy to oblige.

So here is the UKCM's new friend Gareth the Retarded Alien Baby showing us exactly what the MCM expo in Telford was like for the bug....

Gareth the Retarded Alien Baby


Seriously, both Gareth and Rich stole the show as the Alien and Pred. Thanks to them people figured out what the marines were... as opposed to being called GI Joe impersonators!:lol:

I think the lack of attention got to some, though. Desperate for some for some flash-bulb loving... well -

Now that would have made it PERFECT! guess you have more "props" to pack for DC...... perhaps a little stage show at the fan table? or maybe you can rig little marines to hang on the edge of your beer glass! LOL

There really wouldn't be any point....they'd just be ignored in favour of the camera hogging bug anyway!!!

(Click for bigger)

Looks like the photographer had a thing for Aliens, Preds and Marines!

I don't see any white armour in those pics!

Hey stop with the competative digs there Gareth!!!

Yes you all look stunning and the news story would be nothing without you guys in the pictures, but if you want to compete I have an archive of Stormtrooper images that include national and international print, TV and even radio!!!

Actually, I thought you guys would appreciate the dig at KOTE!!!

And I have to say, at least on the evidence in Telford, UKG is superior to KOTE. They didn't really interact with the crowd very well and their Darth Vadar was huge (in the wrong direction!)

And *I* didn't walk around without my Alien head. Loads of helmet-less TKs were visible! (Ohh, but they are pretty good at DDR.)

Gareth has no competition...............he is our leader, all bow down before the bug!

Now, I read that a bit quick Paul and thought it said "bow down before you and hug"!!!! some new male bonding ritual.

Hey I love everybody - must be drunk

Hope to head to more events in the future, would be great
