Hundreds of thousands of fans are expected to be in attendance over the course of Auto Assembly 2012 ... oh no, wait, that's for the other small event taking place isn't it (London Olympics 2012). Though not on the same scale, today marks the opening of Auto Assembly 2012, confirmed to be Europe's Largest ever Transformers Convention (on pre-registration alone).
Joining us in Birmingham are comic starts from IDW Publishing from all of their Transformers books, Transformers More Than Meets The Eye, Transformers Robots in Disguise and Transformers Regeneration. In addition we have three voice actors flying over for Auto Assembly, all making their European Transformers Convention début (some for their first trip to the UK). We have Michael Bell (voice of G1 Prowl, Springer, Sideswipe and many others), Paul Eiding (voice of G1 Perceptor) and Townsend Coleman (voice of Transformers Animated Sentinel Prime - and a rather popular show called The Tick!)
The show starts tonight and lasts until Sunday, and don't forget what happened last year on Saturday night with the surprise guest appearance.
See you there
