It's BotCon time again next weekend! As usual, I’ll have a table in Artists Alley and also as usual, I’ve written up a schedule of when I should be at my table since unlike other conventions, I’m at BotCon to go see stuff as well:
Friday
3 to 5pm (entire dealer room open time)
Saturday
9 to 10am
Noon to 1pm
2 to 5pm
Sunday
11am to 3:30pm
That’s my tentative schedule, which will also be posted at my table. I say “tentative” since there’s probably some bits here and there I’ll be leaving to go see stuff that I can’t plan ahead for. I know at least one of those at-table times will involve me leaving so I can go get in line for Jason Jansen’s autograph, because holy hell Jason Jansen. Also, y'know, the Hasbro booth and its new goodies on display will often call to me. You know how it is. Thanks for you understanding!
I’ll have all four Shortpacked! books, Dumbing of Age book 1, all four of the “Obama”-style Beast Wars posters, and some other goodies. Also, I’ll have blank paper for sketches, provided tips are put in my jar!
Twin trolls Argle and Bargle set out from the internet to torment the good people of the MSTF panel at Botcon 2012, with Shortpacked! author David Willis trapped in the middle.
Get ready for Opinions! at the first ever live Isle of Rangoon performance!
captainmassivelybriefcollector asked:
Was botcon 2016 the last BotCon? There are a lot of things that say it is, but I can't find any confirmation.
It’s the last Transformers convention called BotCon, since Fun Publications owns the “BotCon” trademark and somebody else is gonna do official Transformers conventions after this year. I mean, I guess eventually that trademark’ll lapse, but…
BotCon schedule for finding me
BotCon is the weekend after this coming weekend, and I’m gonna have a table again! Like last year, since I like to attend panels the same as anybody else, I have a schedule of when I’ll likely be at my table so you can find me and not be disappointed ‘cuz I’m somewhere else. Mind, I still reserve the right to wander the dealer room or get lunch or whatever, but I’ve marked out when I definitely will be at panels!
(Less stuff that I’m interested in this year, seems like, so it looks like I might have more table time than last year. Or maybe I’ll indulge in more panels? We’ll see!)
A tentative schedule for tableness below, as I see it currently:
Friday, April 27
9pm-10:50am – MSTF! panel I’ll be there!
2pm-5pm – Dealer room opens, at my table probably no interruptions all afternoon?
Saturday, April 28
9am-noon – at my table
*Derrick Wyatt panel*
1pm-2:30 – at my table
*Hasbro panel*
4pm-5pm – at my table
Sunday, April 29
11am-3:30pm – at my table all day following the morning script reading?

So people in the Transformers fandom are occasionally all “hey why don’t they re-release that BotCon exclusive figure I like but can’t get at mass retail, they sold BotCon 2005 Fallback as Target Crosshairs I mean”.
So I took a picture of Fallback next to Crosshairs.
Yeah.
Makes me happy no so many levels. A reference to a character form an obscure set, deco’d like a “lost” character from Armada, using a damn solid mold.
Lookit my sweet Sarah Stone art!
callmearas asked:
What was the best thing you got from this year's Botcon that wasn't one of the exclusive toys?
I got some BMOGs and art of Windblade from Sarah Stone and got my Tailgate signed by James Roberts. I think that’s actually my entire non-FP haul this year. Dealer room didn’t have much of what I wanted otherwise.
