Dang it, another one I'll miss 'cause it's too far away...unless it's next year and maybe I'll have vacation by then....or something.

Oh, well.

Someday I'll get out there, as long as I wouldn't have to look at widdle jossie boy.

Ahh, a professional event! A good place to get things signed you know what you pay for!

Just remember not to take photos inside the store, or if you do act really contrite about it when the owner yells at you. Otherwise, you'll be banned for life.

Bob, couldn't you maybe go in disguise, or ask maybe if the owner would reconsider lifting your banishment because you've mended your ways?? You know there are Kittens like me who really miss your Metro signing commentary.

Janice

[BBOvenGuy]

Well, I could, but then I'd just get banned for life again anyway. You know how I am with cameras...

Yeah, no missrepresentation here, you make a line by number you pay per autograph and you can pay for a polaroid and it's pretty much in and out though I have never been yelled at there for telling my life story.



I forgot about bob's story though

*Hopes no one shoots the messenger...*



At the moment it looks like a "private" signing so I don't think Amber will be doing a meet-and-greet as such...



Im assuming Metro take autograph "orders" by phone, mail etc by a certain date,and then Amber comes in and signs the requests.....



Of course I have no problem if Im wrong and Amber does meet her fans.....

[scifiacid]

Weird. Is that what they mean by private? Well, okay.

Adrienne

[kajo 2000]

I have e-mailed Metro Entertainment to request clarification as to whether or not this will actually be an "in store" signing.



I will report back once I receive a reply.

[BloodSuckinFiend]

Ahh...I remember the good ol' days at Metro...when you could just plop down your $5 and get whatever you wanted signed. No weird autograph tickets or whatever they're doing now. Of course since its Amber, i'll still have to go.

Chris Bonham of Metro Entertainment has kindly responded to my e-mail, here is the relevant part:

The autograph signing with Amber at this time is not for the public. We only recently had Amber in store for a signing. At that time, Amber agreed to also sign her new action figure for us once that is released. So, that will be done in a private setting.



Now this could change because the action figure release keeps getting pushed back.

---

So it sounds like they will only consider doing another "in store" signing with Amber if the release of her character's action figure is significantly delayed.

Metro sent me an e-mail about their next signing in September (James Marsters and Majandra Delfino from Roswell High), but this is what caught my attention:



"COMING SOON: Buffy's Anya and Tara"



Len

[xita]

Their website still has that thing about it being a private signing but it says that for James as well and the email I got said said James was going to sign for people, not a privated signing. I guess we'll wait and see. THanks aceivan.
