Many guests will offer to do photos (selfies) with fans, voice recordings, or other small interactions, sometimes for an additional fee. These are at the discretion of the individual guest and their comfort level/availability/pricing.
Yes, absolutely! Many guests will have headshots, photos, or other items available to be included with the purchase of an autograph on that item. In an effort to avoid scalping and resale of autographed items, many guests may require that your autograph be personalized with a name or message like “To ___, thanks for being a fan! (Signature)” to ensure that the autograph is directly for the fan they’re interacting with or someone to receive as a gift. METROCON does not allow or condone the autographing of bulk items (especially Pop! figures in recent years) for resale, and both METROCON and the special guest reserve the right to limit the number of items you may have autographed, or refuse to autograph items without personalization.
METROCON discourages gifts of any kind for safety reasons, as all gift packages must be thoroughly inspected, however, this is generally up to the individual guest as to what they will or will not accept from fans. We do specifically disallow food or drink gifts of any kind, homemade or storebought, and these will be confiscated or thrown away prior to meeting the guest.
