I have to agree with Anthony Daniels having an inflated ego. He was at Memorabilia in Birmingham a few years ago . I was taking some pics of everyone there when all of a sudden i had some security guy for AD come over and threaten to take my camera off me because AD does not allow photos of him to be taken unless you are paying for an autograph. I told him i didn't even want a photo of him and continued to attempt to take photos of the others, plus ones of my daughter and then the guy tried to grab my camera. Big mistake. I don't care how bloody big he was he had no right to do that. My daughter went and got NEC security and they came over and sorted things out. I decided to go over and complain to one of AD's assistants that was near him and she just told me that it was his policy. Not even an appology. He was standing right next to her when i was complaining , he looked over but just ignored what was going on. This also happened to a young girl too who tried to take a photo of her brother as he stood in line for an autograph and probably more too. Big deal, he was in Star Wars. So were Dave Prowse Peter Mayhew, Kenny Baker & Jeremy bullock & others that have also been at Memorabilia but they had no ego and were only to happy to chat and know how to treat fans. I already have AD's autograph from years ago, pre inflated ego, but if i had't then i wouldn't even have added him to my collection after that.
