I just got back. It was awesome, but only had 2 or 3 vendors selling a handful of TFers. SO i bought a 8" red ninja (lol, seriously, hes an action figure) w/a gi joe collector club parachute.

I got me a handful of pics too, so i'mma get those uploaded and spot'm here soon.

EDIT: Btw, is there a website out there that lists all the conventions in general for an entire area and updates the list as they come in?

They had a competition for dioramas and modded toys. This one is a modded HISS:

These next two pics are a modded HISS tank turned into a mech:

And a few more dioramas:

I wished i'd had taken more pics. There was quite a few more dioramas that were extremely cool. There were a few other people dressed up as well, including a Cobra Commander and 2 Crimson Guards. The Cobra Commander guy seemed like a dick tho, so i did'nt take his pic and the Crimson Guard people, i could'nt get their attention.

They did'nt have much in terms of Transformer stuff, but i did pick up a Black Alternities Convoy for $50. In hindsight, i kinda wished i'd had collected up like 10 or 20 of the same viper or crimson guard to throw on my entertainment center since it seems like the loose individual 3.5" figures were going for 3-4 bucks a piece.
