Hello All! I just wanted to pop on here with an idea. To all those lucky enough to be going to Botcon 2007 in RI, I have a request.
I was saddened to hear recently that Mr. Peter Cullen NEVER received ANY of the fanmail sent to him/Optimus Prime when he was working on the show in the 80's. Not one letter. Zilch. Nada. What in the world did they do with it all?!? Wallpaper their houses?
So, I thought it might be a good idea to try and get SOME of it to Mr. Cullen. I know it's a real long-shot after so long, but I'm sure there are a few fan letters or "My Hero" school papers floating around somewhere in closets or basements of TF fans.
So, "Calling all G1 TF fans!!!" Raid your closets! Get up into those attics, down into those basements! Dig up those letters you were too afraid to send. Find those impassioned essays you wrote in school. (You know you did!)
Bring them with you to Botcon 2007, and give them to Mr. Cullen with a big smile on your face! He's a nice guy, he won't read it in front of you!
The man deserves his fan mail!
And Hasbro/Takara, if you still have ANY of it in your vaults somewhere, have the courtesy to find it and give it to him! Please.
