Quality & rarity; 2. Interest & age; 3. Variety; 4. Condition (see note); 5. Display and information. NOTE: Condition – rarity will be considered when judging condition. Items need not necessarily be mint although this is desirable. If condition ads to the character as an old item, this should not detract from ranking. There will be five judges.

Please read your schedule carefully as mistakes may lead to disqualification.
