A few videos of Optimus having a giggle at the Billericay Fireworks and just enjoying himself (supported by Essex Cosplayers, Radio Essex)

Optimus had an out of this world experiance with the Billericay Fireworks supported by Radio Essex. It also gave him a wonderful opportunity to watch the fireworks. Much thanks to Essex Cosplayers for inviting us to attend and also lovely to work alongside Ralphy Ralphy at main stage too (hope my spotter Rachael Watson did you proud on the walk back up in the dark 🙂 - I know she does a fantastic job at keeping me safe too when that tall!)

Slightly later than planned to share these, but had a spooktacula time at the Radley Windows, Doors & Conservatories Aylesbury Halloween event! Barricade made an appearance for a bit of it; though seems he’s afraid of the dark and so decided to have a rest for some of the event… Optimus got into the spirit as darkness fell by being draped in light up pumpkins!
Great to work alongside MJ Productions again, and to have a cuddly bear from Bucks Radio was a giggle too!
The mist in the air added to the spooky night. Barricade and Optimus also had a go at making shadow puppets - hehe.
Thank you for having us - hope to be back next year 🙂

Optimus tries the 100m sprint Aylesbury Comic Con

27/10/2024

Well, we are back in Cybertron and relaxing after a busy day at Aylesbury Comic Con … though Tigger has hitched a lift to 100 Acre Wood to bounce around there for the evening as he couldn’t stand the thought of a long journey through space without bouncing!!!

Optimus tried his hand at the 100m sprint on the running track, but think Tigger did a better job though… and Jaws and the rowing bot confused Optimus, yet tigger seemed to know what to do!!

Zoe Crofts did a cracking good job as always with organising the event - you deserve a rest!

Wonderful to meet up with friends from other universes throughout the day - Joker Squad UK Wookie for the hugs and kisses, Ben Armstrong for the fist bumps and music to dance to (and we caught him doing his colouring … he’s a big kid at heart!), Bobby Astalus for his amazing photos that we look forward to seeing, TGP Nominal (and the friendly lady with him) who had a lovely chat with the person who hides in plain sight as Tigger and Barricade.

Can’t wait to see you all again soon at another Bolt Events comic con

Sorry if we’ve forgotten to mention you, feel free to tag in the pics if we’ve missed anyone out…

Hehe - Optimus had a good laugh today at the Aylesbury Library Buckinghamshire Council Science Fiction event today … he found a few books that caught his eye, one about Transformers Dinobots, a couple to help him learn about the universe so he can “send a message to all surviving autobots taking refuge among the stars”; also he wasn’t sure if he wanted to go on holiday to Greece, or if he needed grease to stop the creaking! Also due to his nature of playing hide and seek at events, a book that said ‘how not to lose it’ was quite apt!
Optimus took a trip from the library to the Buckinghamshire New Uni to have a go with full size arcade games provided by ‘Actual Reality Arcade”, but I think he got frustrated at Space Invaders 😂 and also negotiated a revolving door to get in.
He met another out of this world character ‘Sparky the Robot’ - but I think we need a dictionary to know what he was saying as Optimus has only “learned Earths languages through the World Wide Web”
Thank you all for having us … been a fantastic day 🙂

Where will be today??? …. Well, Buckinghamshire Council are doing a free Sci-Fi event in from 10:30-4:00 at the Aylesbury Library and at Buckinghamshire New Uni in Aylesbury … so you are likely to find Optimus somewhere along Walton Street posing for photos during those times!

An unlikely duet at the Oxford National Brick Events on Saturday - Tigger and Optimus … but it worked!
Tigger gave something for the little ones to have someone to interact with (and I think Tigger also had too much fun there too … swimming to the submarine and then diving down!! - See video!) … though at the end of the day, Tigger found a couch to sit and relax upon - I think he deserved it with all the bouncing!
Optimus gave the bigger ones, and grown ups alike, a chance to meet a very large idol (and to be honest the small people loved him too!) - Optimus just had fun as well and even had space to have a bit of a dance to the background music!
Was great to make new friends and be involved with a different type of event … thank you for having us visit!

Friday 11th October, Optimus went to Cineworld Luton to watch the release of … after meeting and greeting quite a few people outside, he decided it was time to head in to watch the trailer, pick up his card and get the tickets, grab some snacks and the obligatory Pick & Mix before heading in to watch the film

Made a surprise visit to Maidenhead Comic Con today at Braywick Leisure Centre (as we had a prior booking in the morning) … took everyone by surprise and this time for once, Optimus didn’t cause any trouble …. Tigger had a bouncy time and was also stopped for many photos.
Thanks goes to Bolt Events for their warm welcome 🙂 … Huntercombe Handmade for the lovely frog that Tigger liked… Joker Squad UK and Ben Armstrong for the banter as always … Amy Greenland for bringing Bumblebee (in disguise) … Gabrielle Maria Rutkin for bringing Lightning McQueen and having a photo with Tigger… and GC Minifigs for the Transformers Optimus minifig!
