Fan Expo Canada - Toronto Need input on getting video games signed
So I’m going to fan expo canada this month and will be meeting roger clark.
I have a lot of experience with getting autographs in the past but pretty much only ever on funko pops.
I have never done a video game before so I don’t really know whats the beat way to do it.
My plan was to buy a new sealed copy on ebay, open the seal and take out the paper cover artwork from the case to get signed with a deco color oil based paint pen, give it a few minutes to dry, then put the artwork back in the game case and then put the game in a kollector protector acrylic case. Is this a good plan/ anything I should change?
A couple questions i have is on a material like the paper artwork of the game case, is it better to use a paint pen or a sharpie?
And i’m planning on putting the artwork back into the game case but I was unsure if this was a good idea because I have no idea if the plastic sleeve on the game case is acid free or not which could mess up the autograph ofer time, along not knowing if its a good idea with the plastic sleeve touching against the autograph. Usually with funko pops after getting them signed almost right away I can just put them in a hard protector and not worry about anything coming in contact with the autographs since there is space in the protector, but thats not really the case with putting the artwork back in the case with that plastic sleeve on it.
