    With Wally Burr attending as well this will get interesting if their paths somehow cross.

    I wonder how many people are going to get him to sign non-TF items. If I had a choice of something to get him to sign it'd be Futurama related for sure. XD

    I wonder if he's going to do the same thing every night and try and take over the world.

    Morbo, Calculon, Mr. Freeze, Egon, Charlie Burns, Toucan Sam and the Brain....aww yeah.

    the only problem is that he and Wally Burr don't get along. I can forsee this being a problem.

    Ah, yes. Orson Welles after the real one passed away.

    Maybe he'll hawk those frozen fish sticks at the con. (Oh, yes! They're even better when you're dead!)

    Everything I've read sounds like a non-issue really. In the interview I read he said he likes Wally as a person, just not so much as a director.

    I'm so glad they got the entire cast from Rescue Bots. That's a reason right there to drop hundreds of dollars for flights and hotels. I'm glad the club is going in this direction. This is a win-win for everyone!

    We added Maurice to the Rescue Bots page.

    The Transformers Collectors' Convention - BotCon 2013!

    Now, while we are of course billing their attending the show as them supporting the Rescue Bots show and is a great way to attract families and kids, I am a bit surprised (or maybe not) that there is any question as to the rest of the impact the Rescue Bots cast have had on Transformers and animation as a whole. Steve Blum and Maurice LaMarche just to name a couple I would think would be very great to meet in person. Steve Blum has appeared on Transformers RID, TF Prime, Rescue Bots and voiced numerous characters in various TF video games.

    Maurice is one of the greats like Frank Welker as far as his impact on modern animation. Transformers G1, G.I. Joe, Futurama, Animaniacs, The Tick, The Critic, Rescue Bots and over a hundred more.

    These two alone along with their amazing cast mates from Rescue Bots I would think would be awesome for kids of all ages.

    Add in Wally Burr, David Sobolov, James Horan and Jason Jansen. And we still have one more guest to announce. Again, just a little surprised. But then again it is a couple pages of complaints, so as always we are counting all the fans that support BotCon year in and year out.

    BotCon has and always will offer the best selection of guests and the most impressive Artists Alley for Transformers convention attendees.
