Take a Spectral Safari this Summer!
|
|
In these recessionary times, what holiday could be better than spending a Saturday down at Fan Boy Three tracking down anything from a Pokemon promo to the tastiest WOW Loot card ever - the near mythical (and hugely expensive and sought after) Spectral Tiger.
Yes - one lucky FanBoy/Girl is going to be walking away with their very own Spectral Tiger WOW mount in our very special sealed Class Deck event this Saturday.
No previous WOW TCG is necessary, as the Spectral Tiger is a random participation prize.
Yes - that's right. You don't have to win it, you just HAVE to be in it.
Someone WILL walk away with a Spectral Tiger ABSOLUTELY RANDOMLY!!!!
And at a UK low entry price of £12.50, you won't need to raid your kitty to Raid ON your Kitty.

Team Fanboy
|
Lian Pizzey is our Extendo-champ, having beaten all contenders in our Play the Game, see the World Championship. He'll now be jetting off to Worlds courtesy of Fan Boy Three!
Yaaay! Andrew Lam is the UK Warcraft TCG National Champion 2009, with Ross Silcock runner up and Steven Marshall is the first ever UK Warcraft Minis National Champion. This has to be our best ever performance ever at any event. Ever.
Congrats to Tom Marsh, who beat Jack Wong to become the winner of our very first Huntik regional.
Well done to Thomas Joseph, third overall in the European Dragon Duel Championships. Fantastic performance Tom with what may be the best ever performance by a UK player in a European event.
Meanwhile, commiserations to Simon 'The Pirate' Ho who lost out in the final of the first ever UKayPro championship in Manchester last weekend.
Congratulations and good luck to Gary "Gandhi" Cadwallader, Team Fanboy's star performer in the 2009 Yugioh Nationals. Gary's set to play in the European Yugioh Championships next weekend as part of the UK National Yugioh Team.
Congratulations to Amber Carter and Paul Foster for coming second and third in last weekend's inaugural Chaotic National Championship and to Jack Wong for winning the UK's first ever Huntik Regional.
Want to join Team Fanboy? Your Fan Boy card is a one stop shop - we'll keep a track of your DCI, UDE or DGMA number, WizKids or RPGA player ID and update your results on line.
We'll need your name, address, age, e-mail, and details of any organised play programs you currently have an identity for. Register for your own Fan Boy Card online and start playing in our in store events today.

Getting There

Situated at the heart of Manchester's transport hub, literally a stone's throw from Picadilly Station, it's easy to reach us by road, rail or coach.
Newton Street is situated at the edge of the Northern Quarter, and it's readily accessible right off the A6 ring road. There's local on street parking off Newton Street, but we recommend the Dale Street Car Park as it's £4.50 for the entire day.
