So anyways
This was the first convention I've ever been to, not really what I was expecting, but still cool none the less. I didn't really know anyone. I reconized Super Megatron from pictures I've seen online, but that was it, and he looked busy workin, so I didn't bother him.
There was a lot of people though, my sister and I got there at 9:30am saturday morning, and we got a little lost trying to find it in the hotel, there was no signs or anything lol, so we just wandered around for about 10 minutes. I finally went through the double doors there and saw a line up, and thought, that must be it! (Still no signs
)
I got a free comic book, that was sweet, and then headed out to check Hasbro's table. The new prime looks cool, a lot better then in pictures. My sister wants a bumblebee helmet haha.
The dealer room was nuts, sooo many people, I was really hoping to check out a lot of toys I had never seen before, but couldn't really, it was hard just to get to the tables, let alone really examine anything. Plus a lot of stuff were in baggies, I didn't even know what half of them were, except for ones I've seen in pictures online.
The MIB Fort Maxes were cool though, I never knew he was THAT big, and the box is enourmous! I knew he was two feet tall, but untill you actually see it, you don't get a feel for just how big he is.
I bought some RID toys, and a couple Beast Wars, and my sister got a Clark Kent, and a silver Autobot decal for her car. I wanted some encore and bookstyle re-issues, but there weren't many that I could find, and the TFC Hound I thought was too expensive, so I just saved my money.
I only stayed for about an hour, then we decided to check out other things in Toronto, like sitting under the run way at the airport while the planes land, that was sweet!! Then we took off to the Oshawa center, and home
Fun time, I'll probably go next year too!

Did discover that I was not allowed to park across the street at the Toronto Congress Centre.

really? we parked there. There were two girls standing guard or whatever, and we just drove past them, pulled into the left parking lot, parked and walked by them without saying anything to each other lol
