We'd like to thank Simon Plumbe, organizer of Auto Assembly 2010 for sending us the following update.

Auto Assembly 2010 - The Final Stretch...!

Auto Assembly 2010 is just DAYS away... but even THIS close, we still haven't finished with our announcements and updates on what is once again Europe's biggest Transformers convention...!

Final Bookings Call

If you haven't pre-registered for the convention, you now have just over 24 hours to do so to guarantee your place at Auto Assembly 2010! Pre-registrations close at 12:00 noon GMT on Wednesday 11th August 2010 and after that time, the only way you will be able to get a ticket for the convention is as an on-the-door attendee and these places will be strictly limited. We will not be able to send passes out in advance for those of you who book now, but they will be available for collection on the day and full details of how to do this will be sent with your booking confirmation email.

Tickets are available for the full weekend and we also have limited numbers of single day passes available for the Saturday and Sunday.

Prize Draws

We are running FOUR free prize draws this year for everyone who has pre-registered for the convention! As long as you have booked in advance for the convention you will be entered into ALL of these to be in with a chance of winning a prize in one of these draws:-

30 Challenge At Cybertron deluxe toy sets
20 random Transformers voice actor signed photos
10 Auto Assembly 2010 10th Anniversary keyrings
3 Auto Assembly 2011 Weekend Passes

So as long as you have booked your ticket by noon on Wednesday, you will have sixty chances to win a great prize!

Charity Fundraising

We are running not one but TWO charity auctions at Auto Assembly 2010 this year. We have had so many items donated that they simply wouldn't fit into a single session so we are splitting them into two. Saturday's session will be hosted by Scott McNeil and Sunday's guest auctioneer will be Garry Chalk. The full auction list will be going online in the next 24 hours on the Auto Assembly website and remember, if you have the Non-Attendee Pack, you can bid on any of these! Items include signed photos, original comic art and more besides.

We will also have a charity raffle running all weekend with a great selection of toys and merchandise up for grabs and plenty of signed photos as well!

All the money raised will go to the convention's nominated charities this year.

Auto Assembly 2011

Mentioning Auto Assembly 2011, we will be opening bookings for next year's convention on Friday. The date has been set as 12th - 14th August 2011 and ticket prices will be Â£50 for adults. However, until 30th September 2010 we are offering ALL Auto Assembly 2010 a special discount ticket rate Â£45 for the weekend - freezing ticket prices again from this year!

We already have two voice actors confirmed and we are hoping to make some big announcements very soon, so if you want to get your tickets at a great price, book them at Auto Assembly 2010!
