In pictures: Falkirk Comic Con proves a huge hit with fans of all ages

Falkirk town centre was the place to be for comic fans of all ages on Saturday.

Falkirk Comic Con came to town offering a day packed with fun.

There were over 60 vendors with stalls in the Howgate Shopping Centre offering visitors the chance to browse a treasure trove of merchandise, collectables, comics and more.

The Falkirk Deliver office on the High Street near the Steeple was transformed into a dedicated gaming room with the latest video games and some retro ones too.

There was face painting and arts and crafts activities for the kids below the Steeple throughout the day.

But, for many the highlight of the day was getting to meet some of their favourite characters for a photo opportunity.

Legendary Transformers Optimus Prime and Bumblebee, Deadpool, Spiderman, Venom and Sonic and Knuckles all stopped by to meet fans, along with younger children’s favourites, Bluey and Bingo.

The event was organised by BGCP in conjunction with Falkirk Delivers.

Photographer Sonja Blietschau captured these images from the day – recognise anyone?
