It will be in the Britannia room where the autographs have been in previous years.

They are for real and they look fun. They perform 80s arena rock songs from the '86 movie which isn't everyone's cup of tea, but any self-respecting G1 fan has got to appreciate their tongue in cheek badassery on some level.

Wish they'd tour out West. I'd be there in a heartbeat.

Dear Cybertronic Spree,

Please perform at the Vancouver FANEXPO next year. I'll be the short guy in the front row air guitaring along to "Hunger".

Or perhaps you can play my son's Bar Mitzvah? I'll convert him to Judaism if you agree!

Sincerely,

jjwankenobi

Im well informed on the 86 movie and the sound track I own it :) I love the cross play but they really do sound off but each to their own I guess
glad that many will be happy. I go to tf.com for the real guests :raisetheroof:
