It's always great to see Alex.

As a bit of a bonus the Central Canada Comic Con Drift #4 Exclusive Comic from Alex Milne will be available to be purchased at TFCon for $10 each.

When Alex designed the cover art he made the back cover as a sketch cover! For a small fee Alex will do a character sketch on that back cover making your Drift #4 Exclusive a one of a kind collectible!

Here's the cover art followed by the sketch of Deadlock, Drift before he was Drift

TFcon welcomes back 80s Toy Expo.

TFcon’s expansion to a 2 day convention was made possible through merging with the Canadian 80s Toy Expo on the Sunday of the event. This was necessary due to many dealers completely selling out of merchandise on the Saturday requiring a dealer room restock if a 2nd day was to be added. This year is no different with the Sunday bringing us Canada’s largest dealer room for 80s toy related merchandise consisting of dealers selling Super Heroes (Marvel, DC etc), Star Wars (new and vintage), Transformers (vintage and Japanese imports), G.I. Joe (vintage and modern), Masters of the Universe (vintage and classics), Wrestling, and tons of other Action Figures and collectibles. We will also welcome new guests to the convention on the Sunday.

I wish TFcon moved around like Botcon, then I could afford to go if they held it in my city. It's actually cheaper to fly to most places in the US (California especially) than it is to fly to Ontario.

Really? 100 Canadian to buy this for non-attendees? Damn.

News Credits: 5 · Thu Jul 07, 2011 1:31 pm

Looks good but I dont have a spare Onslaught to put this on.

News Credits: 609 · Thu Jul 07, 2011 1:59 pm

Not digging the stickers, but I really like the blue eyes and grayish cannon.

News Credits: 20 · Thu Jul 07, 2011 4:57 pm

Huh, I have a hook up for this. Looks kinda junky though. I think it's the stickers and that the head actually looks nothing like Fort Max's head at all. Harumph!
