How's our team balance looking?

Think this is the most balanced London MCM has looked across all 3 days!

Our last con of the year is approaching!

We'll be back at #BirminghamMCM, hosting meets on all 3 days at 2pm!

We're also bringing back the Balloonicorn theme for Sunday, so prepare for Pyros and the ensuing chaos 🔥

CRIKEY! Look who attended our meet-ups at @mcmcomiccon London!

A massive thank you to both @lowriejohnpatrick and Ellen McLain for making our entire con by attending our meets after a full day of meeting fans!

We can’t thank you enough for taking the time to see everyone who wasn’t able to attend your Meet & Greet due to MCM’s space restrictions, we hope you had a fantastic UK visit 🙂

Thank you to everyone who joined our meets in London last weekend! Here are a few group shots from Fri, Sat & Sun, with many more on the way over the next few weeks.

It’s amazing that these 18+ year old games still receive so much love, don’t you think
@mcmcomiccon ?

The community at your cons are still going strong, and we look forward to attending many more.

I was speechless before, now I don't even know what to do with myself. I've got 1800 photos to sort though. All I can say is, thank you @johnpatricklowr and @EllenMcLain, and thank you to everyone else for making this the best meet I've ever hosted. #mcmlondon

Good morning everyone. The weather is looking miserable, so I am making the proactive decision to host the Valve meet again inside the Excel by the N10 sign. Same as Yesterday. 2PM. We hope to see you there!

I am absolutely speechless. Thank you so much @lowriejohnpatrick and Ellen McLain for making our group's dream come true. #MCMLondon

Everyone get to N10 now! John is coming to see us here at 4 : 30!!

Apologies everyone! Due to the weather, we are moving the meet inside to the door of N10. Just walk to the other exit and you'll see us!

We've got some exciting news for all Valve cosplayers attending #MCMLondon in October.

John Patrick Lowrie and Ellen McLain will be attending all 3 days! 🎉

Be sure to see them at their meet and greet, and give them a warm welcome to the UK 🙂

We’re on a mission to get the Team Fortress 2 voice actors to attend a future MCM event, preferably London in October 2025. Visit our website to learn more about how you can help.

And that's a wrap on another fantastic set of Valve meets. The creativity just keeps skyrocketing. I have over 500 photos to go through and I can't wait to show them to you all. Thank you all so much for making this possible. Got photos to share? Join us in the Discord. #mcmlondon

Absolutely smashed it! Massive thank you to everyone who joined us today. I have so many fantastic photos to go through. For those who missed out, we're hosting one final meet for the Sunday, same place at 2PM. #mcmlondon
