I would so love to go after all the work I put into this and the pass they offered me but it would cost me $750 just for travel and lodging. :( I've already got 2 other major conventions to attend as well as Anime Blues Con here in Memphis which will be our first anime convention. I will be moderator as well as a guest on the voice actors' panels and the 80s cartoon panel which I'll be showing off some of my videos.

This looks awsome! I just booked my room. This is going to be my first TFcon, I've been to BotCon a few times before, is it much different? Canada was actually cheaper and closer than Pasadena, so why not? Anyway hope to see some of you there! :CON:

Awesome! A panel devoted simply to 3rd parties. Can't wait to read what they announce. Either that or this is a ploy to lure them out for Hasbro to take a shot at them, legally speaking of course.

Now this greatly intrigues me. Shame I won't be able to attend. Hopefully they will allow for photography.

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.
