www.botcon.com/Anyone here into this? Not a con type person but it's 20 minutes from my house. They have a custom transformer contest that looks like it has very little turn out (from their photos). How cool would it be to enter Hey-you's Optimus for all Hasbro to see? Maybe color and hook together like 5 of those cat guys from beastwars and call them Liontron.

I have an acquaintance I just made recently on Myspace that I think will be at BotCon. She's a huge TransFan. She even has a costume of SoundWave - I kidd you not - it's Awesome! She also has a Baroness costume that she made and appears in at conventions, as well as the SoundWave. Check her out here. |

I was at Botcon 2000. I'd go this year, since my in-laws live an hour away from Providence, but it's hard traveling with two small children. Very hard.
The art contest entries have been sparse since Master Collector took over the convention, for various reasons.

Girl dressed as Baroness - Cool
Girl dressed as a Transformer - Not Cool
until I looked at it.
It actually IS a cool suit. Funny how her size makes it kind of feminine. She could have painted it "girl colors" and had a cool original. Seems to be lack of female robots in that story.
As for 2 kids keeping you from doing the things you used to, preach on brother, preach on! I hear you.
One of mine is old enough to go and I might take him. Still not old enough to help dad with other hobbies.
