Better safe than sorry, glad the wind storm is past

So who signed up for the HASCON newsletter?

And who is signing up for the new Transformers club newsletter? Are they really linked to Hasbrotoyoshop?

Another clearance run of the Platinum reissue coneheads on Walmart.ca for anybody that was waiting. Back down to $40 again:

Last minute Halloween or FanExpo Vancouver cosplay idea for y'all:

I'd jump on that but my son and I already have our costumes set.

Speaking of FanExpo Vancouver, anybody planning to go?

I'm looking forward to Princess Leia

Whereas my son is more into Harry Potter so Draco Malfoy is who he wants to see:

I'll be heading to Fan Expo I think. I was hoping to meet Karen Gillan but then she canceled (again)! She was my main draw but I think I'll still go anyways on the Saturday.

I think I'm going to go, not to meet the celebrities, but more to fill in the holes in my comics collection. I'll also keep an eye out for Transformers, but my experience there in the past is that all TFs are essentially at EBay prices.

I'm planning to go, but we'll see...was looking forward to Karen Gillan as well but of course she's cancelled. Being a DW and Firefly fan, I might actually pay to meet Alex Kingston and Jewel Staite.

Tom Felton is going to look quite different from what your son is used to seeing in the HP movies lol...he's got a much more haggard and rough around the edges look with the 5 o'clock shadow and messy hair he's sporting for his Flash character.

Tru dat...considering he hasn't gotten past the film version of Prisoner of Azkaban.

On that note, Jewel Staite seems to be getting...hotter with age, n'est ce pas?

For some reason I kinda like Jewel more in her Kaylee days, but I can't deny that she's aged well White Rock girl done good...too bad she doesn't live around here any more.
