I also bought the Rising Force Wildrider. I got the exclusive Bossman, looks great in car mode and lots of accessories. Despite owning the Takara official Trailbreaker, I bought Outrider. Toy Arena had Fans Toys Outrider for $150, 30 cheaper than all other dealers. I waited for the con to get Double Dealer on purpose. I love alternate faces and blast effects accessories, so I bought it and will sell my KO on ebay. I waited on those and they were gone in an hour. I got MP-18+ Streak for 160 after losing out on the 2 $100 copies Chosen Prime had on display. I know next year is 40th anniversary.Īs for purchases, most everything I bought is easily purchasable online. He told me to bring it next year for an autograph…if i come. He and I are close to the same age, so we talked about collecting for a bit and I mentioned that I am going to buy his The Ark Complete book on ebay. I told him I collect Tron and he mentioned one of the Robots in Disguise writers was big into Tron, Martin Fisher. Much of what he was talking about kinda went by me as he is a writer for the comics and I'm pretty much a strict gewunner. I also got Jim Sorenson to sign my copy of The Art of Transformers Packaging and we talked for a bit. I am very glad I found him, he is very easy to talk to. It's strange that for an announced guest, he participated in no official functions. I looked for Flint Dille again but he was nowhere to be found. I am going to contact them and make that happen. Like Flint Dille and Ron Friedman, I could talk to him for hours. My wife was with me and was impressed at how nice and talkative he was. He recognized me from 6 months ago and we talked for well over 5 minutes. I wanted to have a lot of time to talk to him with nobody waiting in line behind me, so I figured Sunday would be good for that. When I told him I ended up getting a Biology degree, he was visibly moved. At the time, I told him I was very into science as a kid and Perceptor represented my interests on the show. I met him in Chicago in October and had a great talk with him. I knew Paul Eiding was signing on Sunday, so I saved my meeting with him until then. He was far the best voice actor I have met. I hope you were able to meet Paul Eiding. He wasn't bad or mean in any way, but he did seem like he was counting the hours until he could get out of there. It's interesting that you said that Neil Ross was the least personable voice actor you met. Great post! I enjoyed reading it! I hope you do a similar post for day 2. I tried to replicate the famous Union Station shot (it's a police station in the movie). I realized when I was in Union Station that this was a Blade Runner shooting location. Not sure if anyone here is a Blade Runner fan. It was like mainlining Transformers as a drug for 2 days straight. I wish I could experience this every two months. This is the artwork I bought, the Stunticon team one is replacing my Galvatron art near my collection: Jim Sorenson on Transformers Legacy The Art of Transformers Packaging, Ron Friedman on I Killed Optimus Prime and Flint Dille on The Gamesmaster. If I end up going to TFCon again, this is going with me for more autographs. It's signed by Alan Oppenheimer, Gregg Berger, Peter Renaday, John Moschitta, Michael Bell, Dan Gilvezan, Neil Ross, Paul Eiding and Terry Mcgovern. I don't mind the slight smear considering why it is there. Gregg Berger's autograph got smeared, but that's because I was so engrossed with talking to him that after he signed it, I absent mindedly let the record sleeve touch my jeans. This is the cartoon soundtrack LP I brought to have signed by voice actors. Someone had a 280z painted up to look like Prowl outside the con and only my 2nd TFCon since October, so I took a lot of photos.
