I can sell you some movie TFs, and ROTF figures transformed maybe once that I am so tired of storing.

Thanks but i think I got all the movie TF's i need for now (except for human alliance mudflap)
YAY found some TF's i didnt have at MCCC! Finally broke down and picked up Encore Omega Supreme and a couple Alternity figs. Way more TF stuff there than last year. Almost wasnt going to go. Glad I did now.

Quick edit: I am in love with Alternity Bumblebee! what a fantastic figure.

Had a great time at the Motorcity Comic Con. I ended up picking up Alternity Bumblebee. The knock off mini Fort Max and an SG-1 T-shirt. Lot's of people in costume. Here's my gallery of pictures.

How many people from the forum made it there in total? Looked like a much smaller group than last year. Sorry I couldn't hang out more with the group though since my friend and I got there so late. Busy day. We got cast in a movie in the morning which was our longest delay in getting to the con, but totally worth it :grin:

Good to see you guys around. Do you hear from Andrew? I haven't heard/seen him in ages. He's rarely on here anymore (posting anyway).

Wow, am I sad I missed the Motorcity Comic Con. I didn't even know it was going down.
That Jubilee girl's outfit rocks my socks, not to mention Cobra Commander. Amazing how many things fans can get right when the massively budgeted films stray so far, far away.

Sidenote: I pulled a couple of my TFs out of the box I'd had to store them in, and I gotta say. Leader Class Brawl is just a great, great looking figure in both modes. Seeing him on shelves is the reason I decided to collect more than just the Autobots and I'm oh so glad I did.
It's kind of easy, looking at some of these figures, to forget just what exactly they change back into, but you see Brawl and you think "holy crap that Tank guy looks tough".

I really had a great time. I took my son on Sunday, but he isn't really interested in toys or anything that doesn't involve physical activity (assuming he is my son), so he wasn't that blown away by all the figs and cars and characters. Didn't seem like a lot of people were dressed up though....not like rod's pics. I think the best day for dress up was certainly saturday. I got almost completely caught up on a lot of marvel and dc stuff, and honestly didn't look for a single transformer....wtf...am I on a transformer board??? :grin:

Sorry I didn't get there on saturday or meet up with anyone...maybe next year.

So I was debating with someone today about the possibility of the Clash of the Titans girl replacing Megan Fox. The dude asked "do you actually care who plays the characters in this movie?"

I said, "Yes."

"I want the movie to be good."

In case you're wondering, their arms are raised cuz they're about to shoot at the rest of my Leader Class figures on a high shelf behind me.

On the subject of MCCC the other day...lookie what I found in the parking lot and couldn't resist taking pics with (thanks to my friend who took the pics!):

I need to add the second Autobot emblem onto my Jeep finally...maybe get another one so there's one on either side of the car...hmmm

Random people in the parking lot gave me a lot of odd looks, lol. Totally worth it though! I want to know whose Camaro that was!

Rijie and were just talking about the lull on Sunday. It is really annoying... and now it looks like generations isn't available until August? :-(

I did get the new Porcupine Tree DVD "Anesthetize" today. It's too bad it doesn't transform. Fantastic DVD though :grin:

Thought you guys might get a kick out of this. I went to the Steampunk Expo this weekend and found a pair of goggles with Autobot and Decepticon sumbols on them :lol:

It was too great to pass up

Nice, think I heard about that expo at the comic store a couple weeks back.
