    And I'll be the one NOT wearing an Optimus helmet.... That may actually make me unique!

    Then there will be two of us without a helmet. I remember you answering a bunch of questions regarding dealers at Botcon, are you going to be a dealer? Or are you just really knowledgable about the inner workings of Botcon?

    I have been to every BC since 97 (plus 2 Transcons, 3 Cybercons, and a few minor toy shows) - And although I'm not a professional dealer, I always set up a booth with a friend or two (or 6, as it is this year!). You get in the dealer room early, avoid most of the lines, and most years make enough to pay all the costs of attending plus what I buy.

    I honestly can't imagine going as an attendee...

    You'll have to give some indication of who you are so I can meet at least someone on this board. I expect HUGE discounts as well :)  What kind of stuff do you usually sell?

    When are you flying out? I didn't know any of the Seattle folks were going to Botcon.

    I'll be there! (After all I just moved to Pawtucket RI about 10 days ago, so I'm right here already).

    This'll be my first Botcon. I've done 2 CyberCon Expos and a TransformersCon thus far.
