    For Immediate Release:

    February 10, 2006
    The Stasis Lock Group presents:

    Iacon One
    "Where Things Are Not What They Seem..."

    July 7-8, 2006
    Grand Wayne Convention Center
    Fort Wayne, Indiana

    2006 marks the 10th anniversary of "Beast Wars: Transformers", and the 20th anniversary of "Transformers: The Movie" - join the celebration at Iacon One, the fan event of the summer! The countdown has begun...

    Iacon One features a wide selection of fan activities and attractions: a dealer room, Q&A panels with special guests from the television, comic book, and toy industries, autographs, souvenirs, art exhibit and contest, the MSTF fan parody team, and much more! A portion of the proceeds raised by Iacon One will be donated to charity.

    We are pleased to announce our first special guest- fan favorite writer Simon Furman!

    Mr. Furman's extensive writing credits include hundreds of Transformers comic books for Marvel Comics US/UK and Dreamwave, and the final episode of the "Beast Wars: Transformers" television series, "Nemesis, Part 2". His current projects include "Transformers: Generation 1" and "Beast Wars" comics for IDW Publishing.

    Iacon One will take place July 7 - 8, 2006 in the Grand Wayne Convention Center in Fort Wayne, Indiana, the same weekend as the Three Rivers Festival, making a perfect weekend for fun of all sorts!

    Iacon One pre-registration for attendees and dealers will be available soon... so in the meantime, reserve July 7-8 on your calendar, and don't miss this unique celebration for Transformers enthusiasts of all ages, produced by fans, for fans! More guests and activities will be announced soon, so keep checking our web site for the latest news and updates, or sign up for our e-mail list:

    Sounds good. We'll add the info into the "Conventions and Events for 2006" thread at the top of the forum. That way the info will always be in a stickied thread.
