Just got back from it today, and I must say I left pretty satisfied.

 

I found Hun-grr (no accessories) for $10

 

Rippersnapper (no accessories) for $1

 

Doubledealer (no power masters or accessories) $2

 

TM2 Megatron (missing some parts but he looks fine in Dragonmode) $2

 

RiD Sid-z and Windsheer 2 pack $20

 

G2 Comic #11 $5

 

There were TONS of tables selling GF figures, and I'm probably going to curse myself for not getting GF Starscream because the Cybertron one is going to be frigging huge. Unfortunately, he was too expensive for me.

 

There was another table that had tons of the takara Predaking reissue for $180, but once again, too expensive for me :'(

 

I just wish I had bought the other Hun-grr I saw, because it had stickers and looked like it was in better shape, but I bought mine first, and then when I tried to find the other one again, it was gone :(

I was there. I also left satisfied with Alt swindle, Alt ravage, Alt windcharger, BT white meister, and BT blue tracks. As we were leaving we actually walked into Garry Chalk. He was cool about it and apologised to us :tflaugh . He was like "oh Im sorry guys". Got the early admitance at the door. I was like one of the first 5 or so in the door :thumb . Man did GF convoy look cool in real life almost bought him. Nice to meet some of the canadian online people I have been buying from too. Spencer from A3U said that my preorder Magnus should be in next week so I had to save some cash for him. I actually saw a guy walking around with 2 garbage bags full of tfs he bought. Transformerscon rocked :thumb :thumb

 

 

Cheers

EDIT: Sorry ultimatetransfan, I thought purple bot had started the thread. My bad. :redface He posted last when I read this and assumed it was his creation.

 

Once again, my appologies....

I also suspect my mom and brother managed to sneak in at the end of the convention and picked up a Galaxy Force Convoy for me. My family kicks ass. :thumb

I managed to get there for about an hour late in the show. Talked to Spencer from A3U for a few minutes, then toured the tables.

 

Ended up getting WST Prime and Megatron.

 

Those things are a lot smaller than I thought ..... :eek2
