I might check it out. I'm about half an hour from there now.
I still think the choice of vehicles for bumblebee was bad though. He should have been a yellow Chevy Cobalt.

Well, there goes my theory that GM would actually bring these to show off at Botcon! Maybe Sector 7 will still being their mobile command center...
I know it may have been a bit far fetched, but one can dream!

Sector 7 ends their tour at BotCon, or at least they will indeed be there. I'm sure GM made more than 1 of each of these cars to have on display so I'm still holding out hope that these will be on display at BotCon.

Awesome! I'll get to meet Sector 7! I hope you're right about GM possibly still being there with other cars.

I had a hunch you would be all of over this. Or, in this case your family.
