Seeking help from longtime UK or European TF fans

Postby Sabrblade » Thu Jun 01, 2017 7:02 pm

Motto: "Can't do a job halfway. What's worth doing is worth doing well, I say."
Weapon: Saber Blade
I send this plea for help out to all those here who have been longtime Transformers fans since the early 2000s or earlier, and reside or have resided in the United Kingdom and/or its neighboring European nations, either back then or now since back then.

I request any assist one can offer me in a matter I have thus far failed to accomplish on my own.

Back in the year 2000, held at the Connaught Hall in London, England was an unofficial Transformers convention known as Transforce. At this convention, as was customary of its then-annual events, a magazine was offered as part of the con's exclusive merchandise.

Within this Transforce 2000 magazine is an interview with Simon Furman that contains information I require to complete the fine tuning of a personal project I have been working on for these past several months. I've already done a great deal of research in trying to track down any of the information that was given by the good Simon Furman within that interview, and after countless searches through posts over a decade old on alt.toys.transformers, as well as many searches through long-since-deceased Transformers websites recovered via the WayBack Machine, I have come up short on finding anything more solid from that magazine interview beyond a couple of brief, second-hand mentionings of that interview's contents on the old ATT posts.

Therefore, I turn my attention to you, members of the UK/European branch of the Transformers fandom. If any of you had attended Transforce 2000, acquired its magazine, and still have it in your current ownership (be it buried away amid age-old things from back then or otherwise), please respond and see if you can help me in finding out what all was said by Simon Furman in that interview he gave within the pages of that magazine. I am in earnest to find out what all was said in that interview, so that I may finally complete this long-winded project of mine that has taken so much of my time and effort to complete.

I do not ask for a physical copy to be mailed to me, no. If you have the magazine, by all means, keep it and cherish it, for all that it's worth. No, what I ask for is only the information contained with the magazine's Simon Furman interview.

Scans are not required, but would be acceptable (and, to my knowledge, since they were unlicensed publications, there shouldn't be any legal ramifications towards post scans of them). But if not scans, them high-enough quality photographs of the interview's pages would suffice, so long as the text were to be legible. I would imaging transcribing the interview would be an endeavor too daunting to even think of (unless you're the kind of person who happens to *like* typing and transcribing things), so I won't ask of that. Photographs of the text would probably the easiest task, so long as, again, the text is readable.

Any assistance that can be offered would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. ;)^
