The TFExpo Facebook page was updated to announce the show returning for its 5th year this August 14-15 in Wichita, Kansas! Also announced were two great guest announcements: Dan Gilvezan and Buzz Dixon! Read on for more details as well as registration infomation.
TFExpo returns for a fifth year! Our 2015 show will be held August 14th and 15th at the Holiday Inn Wichita East I-35 here in Wichita, Kansas (Kellogg and Rock location). This year’s show celebrates not only our favorite transforming robots, but all Action Figures and 80’s Toylines. And to help us commemorate our fifth show, we’re bringing in none other than fan favorite Transformers: Generation 1 Bumblebee (Transformers) voice actor Dan Gilvezan! Dan will be speaking and signing autographs throughout the show. But that’s not all! Dan will be joined by one of the creative forces who helped shape many of our childhoods, writer Buzz Dixon! Mr. Dixon wrote episodes of Generation 1 TRANSFORMERS, G.I. Joe, and many more 80’s Toons and beyond. He’ll be hosting a Writer’s Workshop at TFExpo as well, so stay tuned for details on that. TFExpo 2015 will feature a Dealer’s Room with an even wider variety of merchandise to shop from. We’ll also once again be hosting our own Cosplay Contest, and a Toy Customizing Workshop. And TFExpo 2015 will close with our fan-favorite event, the Saturday Night Dinner and Script Reading, featuring Dan Gilvezan and a cast of lucky attendees! Expect even more announcements in the months ahead, including details on this year’s exclusive offerings.

Had a fun time at the tfexpo it was a real treat meeting Dan Gilvezan for the 1st time. Both he and Buzz Dixon had fun panels as well.
Since I had some time before my flight back I visited Sedwick County Zoo near the airport (good timing since the weather was only around 85 degrees instead of the 100+ they've been having) to pay my respects to Optimus Primal

Just got airfare and hotel for TF Expo since I missed Dan Gilvezan's Botcon 2012 appearance. Found a groupon deal for general admission on Saturday August 15th ($12 versus $20). If two more people get the deal through the link everyone saves an additional $4.35!
Met Peter Cullen earlier this year at Sac Anime, Gregg Berger at Sac Toy Expo, Frank Welker at Botcon and Dan Gilvezan will finish off the year quite nicely!
