We’re busy getting ready for New York ComicCon next week – 11th to 14th October is when it all happens! This link shows you where you can find us at the convention – we’ll have fabulous shirts (including a new, yet to be revealed, style!) and buttons (also new styles!) for sale, and all the usual fun and games you expect at a TORn booth – plus maybe a few surprises. Friday 12th at 9pm we will be giving a panel about The Hobbit movie. But most importantly – Thursday 11th we will be ready to PARTY!
Yes, in a week’s time we’ll be partying like a bunch of Rohirrim, at the Speakeasy Room, 442 Amsterdam Avenue. There will be a finger food buffet; a brilliant ‘Middle-earth’ inspired play list on the sound system; amazing prizes to give away, including goodies from Sideshow Collectibles, Houghton Mifflin and Noble Collection’s NEW replica of Bilbo’s contract from the upcoming movie; free buttons and Sideshow gift cards for everyone attending; other surprises and giveaways! Plus, your first drink is on us. AND – we’re delighted to be teaming up with ‘Toys for Tots’ again this year, so do bring a toy or a donation if you’d like. And more importantly – that means Marines in dress uniform….
All this for a measly $25! Don’t say we’re not good to you. As Gimli would say, ‘What are we waiting for?!’ – remember, tickets on the door cost $30. So don’t delay – go here and buy your tickets now!
