    pfft. It's a Honda, oil only comes out where it's supposed to haha. That's what was on my hand after unscrewing the filter, still some on my nails there. No oil on the pavement or my clothes. Didn't even have to wash my watch!

    Before I wiped down I was telling my curious toddlers through the fence what I was doing to the car and what was on my hand. I didn't want to let them touch it so I asked them to smell it, and my daughter said it was "poopy!"

    Everything worked out perfectly. I just found out I was able to go with one day of registration left. Any word on the price of the attendee exclusives, I'm trying to work out my budget so I know how much I need to bring for exclusives and what I hope on finding.

    ...okay, just wanted to clarify that Meadowvale is not in Toronto <.<

    I live 5 minutes away from the hotel, but, I don't think I will be going. I am getting my passport next Friday so I will be poor.

    I like it, but...

    ...I was hoping to keep them seperate. I wanted to see Season 1 and 2 Blackarachnia by herself on a print.

    BTW, I'm not saying I don't like the Beast Machines version, but I was looking Beast Wars and Machines seperate.

    Oh well, I'll still buy it.

    Oy, that sucks.

    It's the Greater Toronto Area, people not from the city just know the area as Toronto.

    For all of you that are this close to the location and anyone that has the chance to travel, make the effort, don't miss out on the chance to meet these G1 voice actors, they are doing rare appearances for TFcon, you will probably never have this opportunity again.

    :lol  its ok I will spend the extra $20.00 for nice paint. I only wish there were exclusive to ONLY TFcon. With them available at other conventions it makes them less special. I just really hope this year the dealer room is loaded with JP stuff like in 2010 :drool:

    I would not be surprised. There's always this 1 dealer that's mostly imported stuff, along with the various online stores (based on previous years).

    Hey all, heading out to TFCon this year from Washington state and will get there late Saturday morning. This may be an odd request, but asking anyway. I'm leaving here Friday evening and will have to stay the night in an airport waiting for a connecting flight Sat morning to get to Toronto. My question is would somebody staying at the hotel there mind me taking a quick shower in their room? I'll be heading straight to the hotel from the airport because I don't want to miss anything. Few things are better than a shower after a day of traveling and recycled air.

    If it matters, I'm a 24 year old college grad and not looking to swindle anybody, just want to freshen up a bit when I get there. Let me know!

    Ok, need opinions on a potential cosplay-G1/Classics Bumblebee? Or Erector/Shafter, the toy from last year? Which should I go as, need some advice, and answer quick! only have less than a week to cobble it together!

    Hey all. I'm not making tfcon this year, but I was wondering if anyone going would be willing to help me out with the fans project retro future figures. I'd prefer to trade for them (I've got a few nice things in my sale thread) but if there's no takers on trading we can talk currency. Please PM me if you're willing to help me out. Thanks! And to everyone going, have fun!

    As much as I'd like to see G1 Bumblebee, I'm going to have to vote on Shafter.

    Less Erector, more Shafter.
    (I know there's a joke in there somewhere...)

    Dressing up as a convention exclusive is much more awesome. IMO.

    Hey guys, any chance there will be anything special going on for the airing of the last episode of Transformers Prime. Does the bar have a big TV that can get Hub network so we can watch it as a large group or something?

    No HUB in Canada, but they do have TV's in the bar iirc.

    I wonder if they get Teletoon?
