Slag-A-Con in Indiana

Postby 3.8TransAM » Thu Aug 12, 2010 11:30 am

So who's planning on going?

Its within 2-3 hrs of all of IN, most of IL and parts of MI and OH.

Since BotCon screws us for the west coast now how many from the MidWest are planning on going?

If I land a job it looks like I have(waiting confirmation I hope) I will preregister and save a few bucks.

It's about 2.5-3 hrs from me, but worth it for a day it looks like.

Here's the link : http://www.slagacon.com/

From what the site says yes, but its still a ways away and I would assume if he is coming, there has to be a few others....

I think my 5 mth old(will be 8 mth old then), needs a "Me Grimlock badass!" Berger autograph lol

Figured since Bot Con has screwed the Mid West for the last few years plus, maybe this would be be able to pick up lots of slack.

Be nice to maybe have a big show too lol, hard to justify, plane tickets, hotel rooms and car rentals to feed my T Formers habit ya know?

Im building a list of figures i hope to find while there....loose or NIB, i dont care.

I really wish i would have done that before botcon instead of running around like sum crazed ADD kid who hasnt taken the daily ritalin! :KREMZEEK:

I just picked up an Armada Starscream and Armada deluxe prime so they are scratched off the list...

anything special you gonna be looking for?

I'm strictly a G1 or good G1 homage guy.

So it will definitely be down those lines for sure.

I'm finally around to getting my collection sorted out and up in my room in my new house, so my list will be getting put together shortly.

Just hoping for a good dealer turn out and maybe some other fun stuff.

Yea, i saw your collection pics after i posted that. pretty impressive =P~

I cant wait to get my own "man cave" I currently only overtake our living room and its full. not to mention had to pack alot of it up cuz of my 1 yr old.

Im also looking forward to a good dealer turn out. My main focus is alternators, masterpieces and classics or and whatever else might fit in the classic line up. every once in awhile a figure from a line catches my eye and i have to have it. Primes are a given as well as starscreams and hot rods.

I also like to get figures that stand out in the comics.

Give it a few days and what looked impressive before will be nothing.

Been cleaning up and assembling combiners and all my original figures, so all those little squares in the display are getting filled with actual unboxed, played with vintage G1.

I'm always looking for deals and good finds, hard to do lately.

Maybe Slag-A-Con will net some.

All we can do is try, I just want to see some more interest in it

Not a clue who the other guests will be, I don't really frequent many of the other T-Formers forums.

Wish we were seeing more traffic from Chicago area for this thing though, if we get a good showing maybe we can have our own show in the midwest now :grin:

No vacation for me this year.

Other biggie trip will be this, so I want to see some traffic for it.

Dammit people open in our darkest hour :lol:
