Here's a link to the expo event, if you look at the northern lights thread there's a video of the tables from last year. Wish it was this quiet during the actual show

I went a couple of years back when it was held in Blackpool, didn't get to last year's in Manchester. Hope to go this year.

Went on the Saturday last year, and waited in-line for 2 hours to get in.

Might go for the Sunday this year, as it was a little quieter allegedly.

I really enjoyed it, but wished I could have heard the tables over the crowd racket.

 

[Carl Spiby]

The reason for the long wait on the Saturday was due to electrical problems, Sunday went much more smoothly.

Only three weeks away now guys, if anyone wants some background on how the show began, take a look at the Wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northern_Lights_Pinball_Show

For the first year ever Northern Lights Pinball will have CosPin at Play Expo in Manchester,
a slightly different take on Cosplay whereby you come dressed as your
favourite pinball-based character, be it from the artwork of a machine,
or something slightly more obscure.

Free to enter, just come and have fun!

There are two categories, adult and children, each winner gets a trophy!

This will be our own side event, it wont be anything to do with the main
Cosplay event held at Play so don't feel intimidated by the costumes if
you saw them last year.

A few ideas to get you started for who you could come as:

Wolfman
Dracula
Crypt Keeper
Indiana Jones
Creature from the Black Lagoon
Dr Dude
Avengers Heroes Hulk, Captain America etc
Black Knight
The Terminator
Marilyn/Lola
A Gopher
A Pinball

I look forward to seeing Morticia and Gomez walking around somewhere
