It was signed by the actors at the El Capitan Theater in Hollywood C.A. during the Tron release party.

did you purchase that on ebay? you might be careful on what you buy...sometimes people do the bait and switch and they steal other peoples pictures that they post on facebook or google and say they took pictures
I seen that happen several times

lol. Thankfully this is not the first autographed item I've bought and I also have compared the signatures to other signed items by the same actors. This is totally legit and a proud piece in my collection. It came from a friend of mine who lives in Hollywood and is able to attend movie release parties and stuff.
thumbsupLooks cool! Here is mine, but I only have Hedlunds signature on it. It too was signed at the El Capitan Theater. Hedluds signature was obtained from a friend of mine who was an invited guest to the opening, and after party. My signature isn't as nice as yours....but I love it all the same.

I have never seen a Disney COA that did not list exactly what the item is that they are certifying. If you don't mind me asking, where did you get this? I am a member of D23 where most if not all "premium collectibles" are offered to members first/ only, and I have not seen this offered. Not questioning you, just something that is certianly unusual, esp for such a low run offer. Also I have to ask.....why would Disney have the stars of the film sign an item that they are offering for sale at the opening of the movie? In my experience to get signatures as "perfect" as yours, a sit down signing, or a meeting with the actor would be needed, esp when you want a bunch signed at once. I could have sworn I saw this one on Ebay.............

They weren't selling it,I bought it from a VIP who went to the party and 25 of these were given to each VIP at the premier.
I knew it!
Quote from the auction listing:
Tron Legacy Signed Identity Disc
This disc has the signatures of Garrett Hedlund,Olivia Wilde,Bruce Boxleitner,Michael Sheen and Jeff Bridges. It was signed at the El Capitan Theater in Los Angeles C.A. on Dec.11.
It is 1 of 25 and was purchased by me from a VIP who attended the premier. Signatures are legit to the actors and are signed in silver marker.
I spoke with a few friends who worked on the film, and were at the VIP release, and after party. There were no items "for sale" at the event. In the VIP bags were some Tron goodies which included an identity disc UNSIGNED. It's one thing for the person "who was there" to get it signed, but another to then have some COA from Disney on an item they don't sell is an indicator to me that something is seriously wrong. This is the 4th disc I have seen on Ebay that had the cast, and was sourced from the El Capitan Theater. Each one of those claimed that they were signed at the after party as the stars were either entering, or leaving. This is the first with a Disney card or whatever. I would call Disney and find out.:thumbsdown
I sure hope you got some serious proof for this thing.

Where you fail is the fact that I bought this off ebay so you've only seen 3 discs excluding my auction and the VIP I bought this from didn't BUY this at the premier it was given to him because he works for a conciege service for these premiers and was given this as a gift. All 25 VIPs were given one of these in thestamped box.

Dude that was my auction......
Sorry man but I don't think so. What was the name of this VIP who received it? I can check the name with one of the event organizers for you and find out if this person really was a VIP. Also what is the significance of the 25, vs the 673 people who were officially invited to the event who got discs as part of their VIP gift bags, but were all unsigned?

Not all of those 673 people got this disc in the box. And I don't think i can give anyones information out like that. Sorry man but these signatures have already been compared to other items the actors have signed and hey match up exactly. If exact signatures and an official signed disney stamped box isn't enough proof I don't know what is. Plus I don't have to prove anything I know this is authentic.
*EDIT*Those gift bags weren't VIP gift bags,they were just bags for the attnede's,only 25 people were given a disc at the premier.
Wow.......how do you know how many discs I have seen? Its been more than that, and each one had all the signatures just like yours.
You said in a previous post that you had no "real intention of selling it" yet you listed it on Ebay, but for whatever reason stopped the auction....... :confused
Now it wasn't a VIP who got the gift, it was someone who "worked the event" as some sort of staff? LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you want I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you.....:thumbsdown

What? You're putting words in my mouth. I said a "VIP" who work for a CONCIERGE service that attended the premier got it for me and he listed it on Ebay and I bought it.. And how do I know how many discs you saw? YOU TOLD ME YOU HAVE SEEN 4
Sorry man you quit trying to rearrange what I said. I guess you're jealous or something but this is totally legit and I don't need your approval of that.
Won't or can't.....there is a difference. If you like it great, but sorry man the story has more holes in it than Swiss Cheese. I don't know about you, but I have been to tons of Hollywood VIP parties/ events.....most of my family work in the industry on one level or another, and this is the first I have heard of Disney or any other studio giving "special" gifts to only a select few persons, when the entire event is VIP only. Not to mention that I have seen more than a few exact discs with the same story that they were signed at the El Capitan theater at the VIP event. I can tell you also that not once have I seen a Disney "stamp", COA, LOA that matches what you have there. So I invite you to post photos of the entire "box," and any other "proof" you have outside of being an amature document examiner to prove it came from Disney, and the signatures are legit. Sounds like the same old story Fleabay story to me.:cry
