NEO Magazine Launches Cosplay Idol Competition at London Comic Con

MCM EXPO LONDON COMIC CON – 28-30 OCTOBER – EXCEL LONDON

Cosplayers should get themselves to the NEO stand in the Anime Village at the MCM Expo London Comic Con this weekend, where they can enter the magazine's Cosplay Idol competition by getting their photo taken for free by our professional photography team!

The Cosplay Idol competition is searching for the nation's best cosplayer – and in order to win, you'll have to prove your worth and produce the best cosplay photograph you can, as you'll be judged on pose and poise, as well as costume and talent! The cosplayer with the best photo wins a host of great prizes, including pride of place on our NEO Cosplay Calendar, a laptop computer, a dedicated feature in the magazine, and a NEO goody bag! Runners up will also feature in the calendar and get a goody bag too.

Not only is it free to enter the competition, but you can also purchase a print of your entry at our stand as well! Your photo will be taken in a professional setting with studio lighting and a white backdrop, and will come as a mounted, A4, borderless print for £6.99. Plus, if you purchase a photo, you'll get £2 off our special Expo subs deal, consisting of £10 (that's just £8 for cosplay photo purchasers!) for three issues and a free volume of manga.

Cosplay Idol entrants under 18 will need to bring with them a copy of our model release form, signed by a parent or guardian. Please visit http://www.neomag.co.uk/article.asp?intID=16&strPageNo=1, download the text, print it out and bring it with you, signed. Unfortunately, we cannot accept entrants under 18 without permission from their parents or guardians.
