I didn't get out to Botcon, which saddens me because this year's box actually has guys I want.

Oh well, I scored a Classics Drag Strip over the weekend and a Binaltech Dead End on it's way, plus I know a Guy that went to Botcon and I'm hoping he'll sell me Sky Bite and Breakdown.

I wish my girlfriend would by me Buster Prime/ Jetfire. Btw, were you able to track/beat down that guy who was selling the Hardhead online?

I managed to get the situation sorted and got my money back pretty much immediately. Sadly, the truth of it was that he copied my number wrong and had tried reaching me all weekend with that one. I really couldn't be angry about that. Pretty easy screw up since my number is basically a jumble of 4s and 7s. Also, yesss, be jealous of me!

It was something of a surprise that I got to go but I did pick up some cool stuff - well cool for me anyways.

Masterpiece Skywarp - Walmart exclusive
Skywarp - TFA Japan
Silverbolt - Henkei
Blackout - TFA

Wish I could have gotten more but all in all I'm pretty happy with what I got.

I think that's the "catch all" phrase for most of us Botconner's

Yeah yeah, rub it in why don't ya D: Serves me right for not jumping on it though... overall I blame CP for not making me aware of the gravity of the situation.

Here's me:

From Left to Right (sort of):

Decepticons:

G2 Yellow Devastator
G2 Superion (as SG Superion)
G1 Slingshot (to be Superion's limb so my G2 Slingshot isn't damaged further >_> )
G2 Windrazor
G2 Terradive
G2 Eagle Eye
Redux Sharkticons (3)
Redux Donkey Punch
Redux Cindersaur
Redux Slice(r) / SG Wheeljack (we all know it's him, come on)
Redux Sky-byte
Cobalt Sentries (Howlback & Garboil)
Redux Clench
Redux Breakdown
Micromaster Nightflight (mine's beat up ;_; )

Autobots:

Redux Sir Pyro Ignatius Spark
Japanese Micromaster Battle Patrol (Gunlift, Sidetrack, Powerbomb, Sunrunner) (THIS is my holy grail :3 )
SG Ravage
Redux Scorch
Henkei Inferno
Redux Rapido
Redux Streetstar(wise)
G1 Tracks
Energon Jetfire (as Classics Scattorshot)
Superlink Airblast (as Classics Strafe stand-in, when I get home Classics R-Blade)
Cybertron Ransack (as Classics Afterburner)
G2 Orange Devastator (as SG Devastator, because he's that cool)
Micromaster Trailer (came with Battle Patrol. If it had tech specs, it'd be more powerful than FortMax and Omega Supreme combined and on steroids. Monkey steroids.)

All them fella's are complete. yaaaaaaaayyyy me.

As a special ending note, I'd like to say that those Japanese Micromasters were still in the bubble card in the box. Who's got two thumbs and ripped those suckers right out of that pristine box first chance he got?

Is that Tracks a reissue? It looks nice from the picture.

Nope, G1. Technically I didn't get it at BotCon though, I bought it off Ryan (Seibertron) and had it shipped to my brother's place on the way. Except for one sticky leg it's perfect, and even that I almost fixed with just a screwdriver.

This topic makes me sad.

Sat Jul 03, 2010 10:36 am

I would have pics of this, but my camera shot craps on me! :BOOM:

Here's the list:

Masterpiece Thundercracker
Animated Arcee
G2 Megatron
Classics Soundwave with Ravage and Lazerbeak(technically, I got this before I got to BotCon, but it was gotten as part of the trip, so I count it.....Thanks a million, Savage! You rock!)
RiD Axer (another birthday gift...Thanks a bunch, Skice!)
ROTF Brawn
TFCC Exclusive Punch/Counterpunch (bought earlier, and was able to pick it up on the way to BotCon)

The list is small due to financial constraints, but I did get almost everything I set out to get....Damn those Alternitys and their rather high price-point! *shakes fist*

And will there be a local viewing of Noisemaze?

We should concentrate as many Noisemaze PTs in one area as we can, and see if can create a black hole of exclusivity.

I'm all for the possibility of a group trip, and if you or kirbenvost or any other Vancouver-ite wants to see Noisemaze, drop me a PM and we can do lunch or something

lol, I don't need to see Noisemaze, but it would be cool to have a local meetup. AND go to Botcon. But alas, I don't know if I'm going to be able to afford it unless they have it in Seattle, and I don't think that's likely. Although, my girlfriend's cousin lives in San Diego and...where is it next year, Pasadena or something?
