Edit: i clicked on the exclamation point, it said, "Download was interrupted, to resume click the get button"

Not a problem, hopefully I can help.

It sounds like from that error message that your computer is loosing internet connectivity for some reason while trying to download the podcast. Do you have this problem with anything else that you download via iTunes? Can you post the exact error message that you are receiving or post a screen shot of it so that I can do some further research into the error?

We'll get to the bottom of this.

Well if they did anything, it worked , got it great episode!

If this happens again, ill be sure to take a screencap and post it right away, it's really reassuring to see you trying to get on top of the problem right away. Many thanks sir!

Thanks for talking about MP-10 and trying to justified your purchase. For people (like me) who couldn't go to botcon to see Hasbro version of mp-10, we just couldn't tell by the pictures online. If you plan to buy the US version by Hasbro, can you do a comparison with the Takara version for us? I was personally really upset that I spent the extra money instead of waiting and after listening to you, I feel jjjust a little better. Thanks and keep up the good work.

Ah cool, I made it into the banner photo at t he top of the homepage...Yay Now I feel like a true indoctrinated member of the Seibertron forums LOL.

I've been out of pocket this past weekend because I was helping my folks move out of the home they've had for almost 20 years and what was only supposed to take two days dragged out into four days because of our inclement north Florida weather and the fact that one of the trailers we were using was an open air rig...so needless to say I'm exhausted. So it was nice to be greeted with a new podcast episode as I logged in just now...now time for some much needed relaxation and downtime. Downloading NOW! lol

Anyway I had a great time at Botcon, it was great meeting everyone. The people in this hobby make it so worth while to make a trip to a Botcon convention. I picked up some neat stuff as well (including a few gaps in my collection) and I also was rewarded for hanging around the lobby with Flux Convoy and the gang because I got a custom TF Hall of Fame sign that they were throwing away (as did LikWid). I think their not calling it the HOF as of next year so this was a collectible worth keeping in my book. Awsome!

You should feel good about your purchase. I honestly think that if you're looking for a slavishly accurate to the cartoon version, Takara was the way to go.

I disagree that the dealer room was weak as I actually found some of my best deals yet, both in terms of price and rarity, including some stuff I don't think I've really seen much of, if at all during my prior 5 BotCons. As always, everyone is looking for something a little bit different.

I actually liked how they did the Casino Night this year, intermixing it with the Hall of Fame dinner and having it all in the hotel. It just made it more of an open social event from start to finish. Besides, unlike in some prior years, they weren't charging for any of the party stuff and the food was top notch.

The blue roller was the first thing I noticed. Thank you for pointing out the other things.

on the subject of the soundwave/soundblaster voyager coming out, for those of us who already have the deluxe version of soundwave it makes more sense to buy the soundblaster of the larger mold as long as you can still get lazerbeak and buzzsaw in some kind of legion packaging.

Nuh uh.

Laserbeak - packaged with Soundwave
Buzzsaw - packaged with Soundblaster
Rumble - Cyberverse legion two-pack (with either Ravage or Ratbat)
Frenzy - Cyberverse legion two-pack (with either Ravage or Ratbat)
Ravage - Cyberverse legion two-pack (with either Rumble or Frenzy)
Ratbat - Cyberverse legion two-pack (with either Rumble or Frenzy)

That's how each figure is going to be released.

I think every time you disagree with a board member, that should be your response. Just that.
