Ok so most of you who went to LANG last night should know that theres always a guy selling these jumbo bags with a anime print on the front for £20, So me yesterday who was realy excited to get a bag for that price brought it. I didnt look what was inside becasue i wanted the thrill of unboxing it wth my sister (who got a AOT one) The evening when we got home, we unboxed it togther and I had purchesed a Hatsune Miku one and when i was unboxing it I noticed that mutiple stuff inside the bag were stolen art. Stickers had the creators @ STILL ON THEM. AND! lots of posters were very sexual (Hatsune Miku with very big boobs and a super short skirt basically showing everything off) And alot of the book marks were very slim (the art was unsual and not even proportioned on the book mark right and overall it was just very low quality and not worth the price for such stolen art. Also it included a mouse pad with a women (just like hatsune miku) but i suspected it wasent. I had google imaged the picture and it had appeaerd the so a UTAU of some kind, SO they are selling stuff SCAMMING people and its not even the right characters there getting 

NOW here comes the big part. In my sisters AOT goody bag, it had included sexual images of mikasa and posters of eren x levi which were also very sexual eren was about 16-17 A MINOR and levi was in HIS MID FUCKING 30'S. Im 14 and my sisters 12 and we already understand that, thats fucked up. SELLING PROSHIPPER ART TO MINORS?
i cant imaging the other goody bags.. 

Atleast if your going to sell goody bags make the art offical or atleast CREDIT the artitsts because i know dam well that none of the art in those goody bags are real. And i even google imaged them and they came to facebook account with that pfp, Pins on pinterest and many more.

I had a good time yesterday and seeing that when i came home honestly put me off ALOT. I just cant belive that they continue to make HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS of pounds selling these.. images. LOW QUALITY SHIT to people.

Ill link the images below to see what im talking about.

Im honestly desgusted that anime leauge continue to let these people scam and sell their products! DO NOT BUY FORM THEM PLEASE! BUT FROM A PERSON WHO CREATS THEIR OWN ART OR SELLS OFFCIAL STUFF. PLEASE

quick disclaimer: it also included a hatune miku bookmark of her feet out and is basically FETISH.

if you do have any questions or stuff to say to me please feel free to dm on twitter as i am not very ative on forum!! 

Sorry for the bad language i was in a rush

Hi there! Do you remeber excatly where the stall was as this is not what we want our exhibitors to be selling and this is part of our Terms & Conditions when they sign up to be apart of the event, so they are breaking our rules.

Sadly we can't go around every dealer and check their stock, however I don't want this to be an issue this year when we have said multiple times not to do this. Was this on the top floor or bottom floor and where specifically as I can then track them down.

I totally understand the shipping of Levi and Eren and they shouldn't be selling other peoples artwork without permisson.

If you still have the bags the goods came in, that might give us a clue.

I think I know the one the OP was talking about. They had a massive table full of these mystery bags. They were on the same floor as the second stage and you could see their table through the window when queuing to go in. I got one from them too, on Friday they were £10 per bag, and mine had similar items, mousepad, bookmarks and stickers etc. to be fair at £10 I thought it was quite good but wouldn’t have paid £20. I didn’t really think anything of the artists names on the prints, just assumed they were used with permission. I have my bag still and can send a picture if it helps

Sorry just seen this! If you could because I know quite a few traders who do mystery bags who are on the same floor as second stage. So I have two people in mind I need to yell at, but just want to make sure it is the right one I'm telling off :)

Hi, that’s ok, here’s the pictures. I’ve included the contents of the bag just to make sure it’s the same kind of stuff as the OP got.

Thank you :) I believe I know which exhibitor is is :) Ngl I like that Black butler Clipboard!

I will speak to them and investigate their stock at manchester, but deffo informing them about the content in the mystery bags as I have always said if I have problems with mystery bags again they will be banned and then every dealer is affected then

That’s ok :) to be fair I wasn’t disappointed with anything in the bag, except maybe the bookmarks as they clearly were cropped and stretched just to fit, but other than that for a £10 I was happy. Just a shame if it is all artwork taken without the artist’s consent.
I bet mystery bags are a bit of a recurring headache, they're so hard to police
