Re: DUDE! What were your favorite parts of Tfcon?

1. All the cosplays on Saturday, being a cosplayer myself for many years, always love seeing others take part.

2. Other then the wheel issue, Bob remained completely together

3. Meeting James Roberts

4. Having my Complete Drift signed by Casey, Alex and Josh. Both Alex and Casey even drew me some awesome Drift's!

5. Picking up my plushies that sowiddlefur had custom'ed for me and meh sibs.

6. The cosplay contest

7. Meeting that US the Knockout and Breakdown cosplayers for the first time and meeting a lot of people I know online but never spoke to before.

8. Everybody was understanding and kind. Offering to aid Bob in getting from place to place, or asking if we were alright. Also being a sport as he was shuffled through the hallways.

FYI for number 8: (ALL BUT ONE TFCON staffer with blonde short hair in a purple shirt at the cosplay contest before it started. I was pushing Bob inside and had to stop because a bunch of people were before me taking pictures of Breakdown and Knockout and the staffer behind us decided to be ignorant of the matter and rudely tell us to step aside. IF WE COULD OF MOVED, WE WOULD OF MOVED! It is different being ignorant and apologizing when he realized it, but he was utterly rude then laughed at his buddy when we said we were trying to move. I can't move if I have to slide him around and the entire way is blocked. )

Re: DUDE! What were your favorite parts of Tfcon?

1: Blowing Vangelus' mind when I told him whom I was. He and I are both staff on an off topic web site.

2: Finding all sorts of great and unexpected pick ups.

3: Running into Venus and the fact that she actually remembered who I was.

4: Finally able to get a childhood holy grail.

Re: DUDE! What were your favorite parts of Tfcon?

Day 1: Our arrival in from Manitoba goes smoothly and we get checked in and say a couple hello's. Good seeing a few familiar faces again.

Then I found Guber! One of the weekend highlights for sure. We bad a suspicion that he was coming in, but seeing him again was great.

We basically voided registration until the line died down, then Benzo and I checked in and visited a little with the Lord Commander Super_Megatron, scored some exclusives and got ready for the opening ceremony.

More later

Opening ceremony, but then I'm extremely heavily biased. :P

The best part is meeting people that I only knew previously by these boards---IN PERSON. I love that, it's always fun. Such an amazing group here, a great show...I look forward to it more and more every year.

Re: DUDE! What were your favorite parts of Tfcon?

I had an amazing time this year! No complaints aside from some overly priced items in the dealers room which can simply be bought $20 cheaper online. I also did not have much to buy as 80% of the dealers carried the Beast Hunters series which again is cheaper just to pluck off the store shelves then shovel $40 out for 30 Anniversary Generations Springer. HA!

Anyways~

I wanted to personally thank everyone from the Staff at the Hotel to the Attendees and TF con staff for being so helpful and understanding with Bob and our situation. We appreciated everyone who wanted to lend a hand to help us drag him or even carry him down the hall. I've been to many cons, MANY, cons in my 13 years of cosplaying and it is rared to see and get this kind of offering.

So thank you!!! :] !!!! SO MUCH!

We also would like to send out all the love to all the compliments of Bob. Though, he had complications which were hard to fix with minimal supplies, even when bringing an emergency kit, he still made it through the 2 days. Hopefully his next appearance all complications will be perfected and we won't have so much problems. LOL!

Ciao!

Re: DUDE! What were your favorite parts of Tfcon?

My 1st ever tf con, being that I'm from Scotland. I really enjoyed it. Some off the dealers were really friendly and great to talk to. Selection of toys, bought mostly 3rd party or exclusives. The costume contest. Seeing livio ramondelli and my wife got an awesome sketch that will be framed wen we get home
