Maybe... I think I'm going to be at the Northeast Championships for SF4 on that weekend.

But it IS in Philly...

I dunno...

I can try, work schedule is slightly in flux at the moment but I SHOULD be able to make it work.

News Credits: 609 · Tue Nov 10, 2009 3:21 pm

I might be able to make it too.

Not sure, though, I was just down to CP's.

I live up near Wilkes-Barre, which is exit 105 of the 476. It's about 2 hours down to the Philly area for me (it was about 1:45 to Delicon's place), for what it's worth.

As stated earlier, I have no problems hosting but am up for whatever the group majority wants to do. As for shopping, there are 5 Walmarts, 3 Targets and a TRU within 20-some minutes from me, one of the Walmarts being just a mile down the street.

My wife actually works at that Walmart so we have 10% off discount cards if you guys want Walmart stuff. They work at any Walmart.

Just keep me posted on the when and where. I'm down for any since I'm pretty much in center of EVERYONE. LOL!

I will have to check in with my brother to make sure he is going to be at school, but the 5th or the 6th should work for me. I would prefer the 5th.

I had posted last week that I saw 1 Perceptor left and 1 pack of Insecticons at the Willow Grove TRU (the new one they built/moved). Tempted to go up to the Montgomery TRU to check it out.

Also went recently to a few Targets and did not see anything exciting.

News Credits: 5 · Thu Nov 12, 2009 8:27 am

I'd prefer the 5th as well.

I've got 65 bucks for anyone that comes and meets up and brings me a Wal*Mart Masterpiece Skywarp :grin:

, since I can't find one around here :-x

From what I have seen, December 5th is the most popular date. Can we decide on a place and time? I know some of you expressed interest in meeting at someone's house first and then going from there. I know someone volunteered their house as a meet up place, so we just need a time. Lunch time would be my preference.

Personally, I'd like to see us hit Winner circle in Exton, as it's easy to get to, has great food, and is close to Exton stores.

*begin male Chauvinistic comments*
and the waitresses in short shorts don't bother me either

Exton's not too bad. It's just a hair under 2 hours down 476 to 276 for me.

I wouldn't rule out King of Prussia. That would shave about 20 or 25 mins off of you guys's turnpike times.

I'm down with KOP, yeah you know me!...Sorry :oops:

Ruby's is a really awesome place to eat, but I don't know if a group as large as us would get in easily.

Hi there, I live in Easton PA and work at the Wal-Mart Supercenter on Rt. 248 and we got in a bunch of Masterpiece Skywarp figures in the middle of last week or so. I picked on up today.

News Credits: 273 · Fri Nov 13, 2009 6:48 am

KOP hooters is already one of my hangouts (and the great news is that if my wife comes along, she won't even object)

Fri Nov 13, 2009 9:18 am

I wish I could go (I'm very near the border of Delaware) but I have no transportation.

I am a big fan of that place. Great food and plenty to drink. Winners Circle gets my vote. Hooters is expensive. That, and you kind of feel like a sleaze while you are trying to hang out.

I really would like to avoid the mall at Christmas time. Stupid shopping.

Fri Nov 13, 2009 10:59 am

Bah!
All you Eastren PA people, I don't know how you stand living out there.

I need to start one of these for Western PA / Eastern OH people... then again, why would I wanna see all yer ugly mugs in person

Anyways... carry on

Are you implying that you think it's a waste of time to drive a mere 6 hours just to have a couple drinks with us? :shock:

The nerve of some people :lol:

News Credits: 23 · Fri Nov 13, 2009 3:44 pm

I drove over 6 hours to have drinks with most of the fandom in 2007...but then again...that was botcon.

Oooh, I'm definitely down with KOP too. I like hooters. I mean the food. But again. Whateve is good with me.

CPs's last meet up was definitely fun. Got to meet Razorclaw0000 for the first time. I don't know how many times we walked in and out of that museum he call's his TF collection. I probably could have stayed in there all nite.

Yeah, it was awesome to meet everyone, even though I didn't get home until 3AM.

3 AM?! I'm an old man, I have to watch Matlock and be in bed by 930pm at the latest

I'd vote for either Rubys in KOP or Winner Circle in Exton. Every time I have eaten at Hooters I have gotten sick, and no alcohol was involved.

Yep, left CP's at about 11:30-11:45pm, and then it was another hour or so to Delicon's place (thanks again for driving!), where I picked up my car, then another 2 hours back up to exit 105, with a stop over at the the Allentown service plaza for some caffeine. From the exit, it's about 20 minutes to my house. I was in bed about 3am. Long day, but super fun! CP's wife is an amazing chef. One of the other great parts (besides meeting everyone!) was that we gathered CP's, Geekee1's, and my Noisemaze Production Type, and took a bunch of photos. It was probably the largest amount in one room since they were distributed.
