Bookings for AA are still open, so if you've been on the fence about going maybe this is the announcement that will motivate you to get registered. A little over two months to go to the con, see you there people.

Awesome news. Just makes me wish I could afford to go now.

Now this could be just me but I think this trumps the lady who voiced Sari at Botcon. lol

Weeeell... in fairness to Tara Strong, she may not have had all that much involvement with Transformers to date, but she is a huge name in the cartoon VA business.

AA - I may be able to make it. Have been mulling over schedules and stuff given that I don't have a whole heap of money to burn through with the dealers.

I'm sorry if I came off the wrong way. I have nothing against the lady, I even love most of her work. Ben 10, Bubbles. She's good. I just thought that she was a poor choice for the biggest Transformers convention of the year. I know, schedules and stuff probably played a part in it all.

I for one was very glad to have seen Tara Strong at BotCon this year. Her talent, various voice roles in popular shows (Raven from Teen Titans, woot!), and great personality made her a wonderful guest at BotCon, and I don't understand how she would be considered a poor choice. She was an excellent choice.

And to stay on topic... Dan Gilvezan is an awesome guest. I hope the attendees have fun!
