    What's the deal with that Barricade? Is it just a fancy box for the regular toy?

    Yeah, if you notice, Soundwave.ca's haul is MOSTLY oddities. Yep, he's been hanging around me too long. :lol 

    Actually I brought my little Barricade Zip Zap with me to Botcon and showed it to him while we were there. Next thing I knew he was at Radio Shack looking for one. :lol

    Sorry for the bump from the second page, but somehow it took me a week to find the time to upload my pictures. So here's my modest haul from Saturday.

    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    -Pepsi Optimus Prime
    -Reissue Soundwave (now I FINALLY have one)
    -Transformers More Than Meets The Eye #3 (minus most variant covers and the preview comic, I now have every Dreamwave TF comic)

    -Beast Wars #3, autographed by David Kaye (I brought the comic with me)
    -Botcon 2007 Program/Games of Deception Comic, autographed by Alex Kurtzman and Robert Orci, and Stan Bush (because I forgot to bring my animated movie soundtrack)

    I also got the gift card ($5) and comic that came free with registration, and one each of the Prime and Megatron posters they were giving away at the Sector 7 truck thing.

    I ran into Draven and alphie, and even if it was for a brief minute or two, it was still cool to meet people from the boards. I saw Kickback (hell, he was barely five feet away from me), but he was going elsewhere while I was on line for Kurtzman and Orci's autographs.

    Finally, my Botcon haul pics. minus the comics and graphic novels I got.
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    And my favorite, $5-15 Predacons in C4-C7 shape. A few hours with some 1000 grit and the polishing wheel, and they outshine my reissues. A few of those on the table were great buys that just needed some love and repro labels.
