Team Giblets

Kitacon 4

Keith — Wed, 18 Apr 2012 12:20:40 +0000

Holy hell, Kita is a convention that likes to party hard. Congratulations to the committee for an awesome weekend, we had an absolute blast

As per usual we provided some audio visual delights for the opening ceremony but we also got the chance to take part in the committees opening video as well. Put together by Iain and Luche it was a rollercoaster ride of magic cards, homicidal puppets and talking genitalia that culminated in a live action segment on stage that will not soon be forgotten by those that saw it.

Project F.A.T.E. (link will be here when Kita post the video)

It was a pleasure to take part in so again a big thank you for letting us be involved. Our contribution to proceedings was played a little later in the ceremony and the link can be found below:

We are sad that there won’t be a Kita in 2013 but we look forward to its return in 2014 and the various projects they have lined up for the interim.

Minamicon 18

Whoops, a little late but never mind. Minami was as good as ever, thanks to all who dropped by and we hope everyone enjoyed our little charity presentation during the masquerade:

Thank you to Rob Fahey and the Minami Committee for letting us take part in the auction to shave Granny Gertrudes hair. Granny was a fantastic sport and his sacrifice raised over £800 for charity.

Here’s to Minami 19 in 2013

Five Years of Team Giblets

Keith — Thu, 15 Mar 2012 10:35:09 +0000

Having barely recovered from our post Hyper Japan bout of Flu it seems that Minamicon is upon us once again. Minamicon is a special convention to us for a number of reasons not least because it was the first event Team Giblets ever traded at, and this weekend will mark five years of Team Giblets goodness.

So we’d just like to thank all the fine people who have bought any of our eclectic selection of wares over the years and to all those who have helped and supported us in a myriad of different ways and allowed us to continue to do what we do.

Thank you all and here’s to another five years

October London Expo

Keith — Thu, 27 Oct 2011 03:10:53 +0000

The last weekend of October approaches and once again the dead rise and restless spirits from the other side sneak into our fragile mortal realm. Such portentous events can only mean one thing, it’s once again time for another London Expo.

We are located in block T alongside Gotham Row, which I assume means that we are protected by the Batman. So why not drop on by and give a massive middle finger to winter and buy one of our lovely T-shirts.

A larger map showing the entire Expo can be found by clicking here.

Ayacon, The Aftermath

Keith — Tue, 30 Aug 2011 15:35:02 +0000

Well it’s been just over a week since Ayacon and we’ve just about recovered from the experience. Another spectacular showing by the Aya committee who deserve a huge round of applause for the massive amount of work that must have gone in to make the convention run as smoothly as it did.

We had a very successful weekend so thank you to everyone who bought something off the stall. We also took part in several events over the weekend, running the “skits 101 panel”

And of course our contribution to the most excellent “Sunday Night Live”

Big thanks to the many awesome people who helped out with putting this one together. It was the most involved and complicated production we’ve done and it was fantastic fun to do.

Our next outing is not until October Expo but we’re aiming to get some other video related treats out for you in the meantime so watch this space.

See you at Aya

Keith — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 09:47:47 +0000

The Team Giblets wagon of fun and dubious moral virtue will be departing for Ayacon soon, so if you are attending we look forward to seeing you there.

Nom Con 2011

Keith — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 09:44:24 +0000

If you happened to be in Dublin a couple of weekends ago you may have seen some strange sights in the Ballsbridge area as anime fans descended for another weekend of awesome at Nom Con.
Team Giblets was in attendance once again and we have to say that it’s a convention that has quickly established itself on our “we must go to this convention” list. This was also by far the sexiest convention we have ever attended as well (those who saw the Nom Prom acts will understand).

As is our usual stock in trade we put on a short performance at Uncle Nom’s variety hour (Congratulations to Liz on another awesome show) videos of which are linked below:

Full performance.

Thanks once again to Nate and the rest of the committee for inviting us, we had a fantastic time and we look forward to Nom Con 2012.

Long time no see.

Keith — Thu, 26 May 2011 10:46:51 +0000

Hey everyone, despite the lack of activity on the website we are very much alive and kicking.

As those of you who pay attention to these things might realise the London Expo kicks off tomorrow and as usual we will be in attendance. We will also be debuting some brand new T-shirt designs alongside our established range of favourites.

In order to find us and sate your need for quality T-shirt goodness we have supplied the handy map below. See you all at Expo
