    Apologies if this has been mentioned already, during the Roll Call Roll Out UK convention the TCC also revealed David Kaye as the 1st announced guest for Botcon 2016. Maybe a sign of mostly BW voice actors next year to go along with the theme!

    I hope he can be at TFCon next year also.

    It's one of the few dreams in life I have, is to meet my favourite VA of all time.

    Told myself that the only way I'd be going this year is if the guests were worth the trip/airfare.

    So yeah, looks like I'll be going next year.

    David Kaye, Garry Chalk, and Scott McNeil must be there. If the organizers fail to book all three, they've failed. I still haven't forgotten 2014's Botcon, when Peter Cullen was at a DIFFERENT con, along with several other G1 VAs. Last years Botcon guest list didn't excite me either.

    But let's be optimistic (or try, despite the fact that all TF fans are haters by nature). Fun Pub WILL get these three. I'd love to see Venus Terzo, David Sobolov or Blu Mankuma too. And Sue Blu - it would be a nice touch, since BW Arcee was one of the best Botcon exclusives ever.

    Botcon should be special - it's the original con devoted to Transformers - so it should have more to be excited about than exclusive figures.

    I think Scott McNeil as a guest is likely given his popularity, role with the show and the fact they got him for the 10th anniversary. Though personally I'd like to see David Sobolov, Blu Mankuma, and if at all possible Jim Byrnes so I can finally see a script reading with Kayne and Byrnes as Megatron and Inferno.
