Auto Assembly Coverage now available through BBC

The BBC has updated its site with a full report on the happenings that took place at Auto Assembly 2008. It's reported that over £30,000.00 worth of Transformers were purchased or traded over the one day event, which is being called "the largest Transformers fan convention in Europe. "



Simon Plumbe, co-creator of Auto Assembly, spoke with the BBC after the event. Here's what he had to share: "It was absolutely fantastic. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves and we had a blast doing it. The official attendance record is 423. That's more that any other unlicensed Transformers convention in Europe. We're really very pleased - all the hard work organising it paid off."



Plans for Auto Assembly 2009 are already in the works and Simon and Sven plan to shatter this year's attendance as well.
