    I've been wondering where all of the exclusives were. This is still only the 2nd such announcement (I think the other's from MakeToys via The Chosen Prime, too), and the convention starts tomorrow!

    I feel like they had so much to organize with so many guests that they are just running a little behind. Exclusives are great but the talent is the pull.

    They're also offering a Diaclone-inspired deco of Striker Manus, appropriately called "Delta Manus."

    I suppose that's the end of the guest list, too. Dang, and I was hoping Corey Burton might attend.

    Honestly, while I'm stunned at just how many people will be there (more than any TF convention, ever, unless I'm mistaken), I'm going to be interacting with very few of them (and paying for even fewer autographs, given the pay-for-each policy, which I have no quibble with. Just means I'm going to do very little of that). I need to see things besides the talent. It's really NOT the pull for me.

    Yes, I've known that for a while. I specifically referenced it in my comment. It's the first. Starscream is the second. And that's it. Even by the link you gave us.

    That will be a bummer,Id be happy to see some last minute surprise announcements but Im not holding out for it.

    Im happy for the guests that are going to be there and giving their time for this anniversary but you know were missing some and it just doesnt feel right with out them.

    No you didn't. You said you were wondering where all the exclusives were, implying you didn't know about Delta. I know I didn't read the rest, though it still seems like, from re-reading the post, that you had forgotten.

    And it looks like you didn't read the rest of mine, just as I didn't read the rest of yours.

    My wallet isn't going to be happy tomorrow. But I love that Delta Manus and G2 Starscream.

    My friends have stuff to sell. We'll be checking into the hotel later tonight and may be ready to start selling tonight.

    Who's coming to the customizing class?

    Here's a photo of the map and the class is in Producer A B in case anyone's running late and needs to dash in :)

    Hey all, this will be my first TFCon - excited to get there tomorrow! One thing I’m wondering about is what kind of deals should I expect to get in the main sales area? I assume the regular stores like THe Chosen Prime and Toy Dojo will sell stuff at their website prices? Is there generally much room for haggling?
