Published on May 26th, 2009

I have been all over the forums of the London MCM Expo website to find some of the very best pictures from a very surreal weekend! So enjoy the photo bomb kids…

I know this photo seems a little unbelievable, but we actually broke the Guinness World Record here folks for the largest number of video game cosplayers in one place! I think that’s pretty cash.

The stalls sold pretty much anything a geek could ever want. I totally get wet over vinyl toys, even more so when they are vinyl figures of hot anime girls (…this is why my dad thinks I’m gay).

Cosplay like at any event, was a major player. It’s not just anime and manga cosplay at the MCM, oh no…

There is always the good….

The bad…

And the fuzzy.

Dr. Who is more popular than ever. Still, they may look good but I don’t feel the uncontrollable urge to jump them like I do David Tennant.

Well made cosplay is always a must. Yet that one on the far left looks a little out of place…

Creativity is always a winner. Even more so when the companion cube song is being blasted from it.

You know union rules say that you can’t be on-call ALL the time, right? Also that guy on the left… yeah, kinda cute isn’t he?

Can’t even think of a caption for this one. It’s just beautiful in it’s own special way. At least he is waiting his turn… although that kid is fucked if he buys the last tuna-mayo sandwich.

Like every year, London Expo requires you to take it with a pinch of salt. It’s an amazing weekend that is a bit of an eye opener (even more so if you are still new to *our* geek world), but doesn’t it feel nice to be around your own kind? Even if it is for only one weekend…
