    The T-Shirt is now available for order:
    CybCon 2012 T-Shirt from Zazzle.com

    Please order one straight away so you can wear it to the convention! :) 

    Also, anyone in the world can get one, so feel free to snag one, even though you're not coming (Allen ;-). 10% of each sale goes to CybCon (me)... I could not make it less. :( 

    There may or may not be a hint on the Exclusive toys therein.

    Are the shirts sold out? I can't find them on the website, nor do they show up on the main CybCon site?

    No, the artist wanted to make a slight change, and that required a new shirt. I don't know why the new one isn't showing up in the CybCon web shop, but the direct link in my sig works just fine.

    When I look at the web shop, it comes up.
    http://www.zazzle.com/cybcon*

    I'll update the link on the CybCon page too, which I forgot about. Sorry. :( 

    Thanks!
    -Greg

    That link works, thanks Greg!

    Also, do I spy Beast Wars tapes?

    Registered and paid for my me, my wife, and daughter. Will be our first time coming and looking forward to it. Hell of a drive from Southern Oregon :)

    I don't envy that drive. I've done it for a long weekend a couple times.
    I hope you're coming up the night before or leaving the day after. That would be a helluva day trip. Worth it? Probably... especially if you can switch out drivers so it's not so exhausting... and if your kid can sleep in the car. ;-)


    Beast Wars tapes? Now there's an idea....

    We are heading up to Portland a couple days prior and staying with a friend so the actual trek to Washington will be from there. But still, it is a heck of a drive.

    That t-shirt looks to have several Ariel Lemon designs on it. Hmmmm :)

    Sweet.

    Side-note: This is the first time I've ever ordered something through Zazzle, and man were they fast. Good printing on the logo too.

    Bummer I just missed out on this registration. My son and I just moved to Washington a month ago and must have read the site wrong, I thought could pay at the door and we were planning to come down next week, as this would be our first TF convention... If you have any openings let me know [email protected] - thanks.. if not I guess we'll have to make other plans.

    The part you read wrong was that even if you pay at the door, you MUST register in advance. I can regale you with why this is, but I'm already tired of doing that.
    I don't turn anyone away, though. PM me your names and I'll put you on the list. You can come and pay at the door as planned.

    Next year, please read the entire page thoroughly. I stated multiple times that registration is required regardless of when you pay.

    I haven't got my badges yet. Should I be concerned since we are leaving Thursday? Also I think its Airazor, Tigatron, Rattrap, and Dinobot. Im pretty sure thats a Predacon logo on the Dinobot one.

    The last batch of paid confirmations went out yesterday, so about a dozen people will get theirs in the next day or two.

    If you don't get your cards, don't worry, I'll still have a list to look you up on. It just means a few extra seconds during the entry phase for you.

    Guesses on the characters are pretty good, but no one has nailed all four just yet. I guess there's still a surprise left for Saturday. :)

    The blue and Red ones look like the same mold but one is a predacon and the other is maximal. Punch/Counterpunch?

    Awesome time again this year. Placed first this year at the toy transforming contest (came in at 21 seconds to turn Prime RID Vehicon from vehicle to robot mode), and picked up some great swag:

    This year's toy exclusive. Another great toy from grimlockprime and Psychoshi using Ariel Lemon's Shapeways design:

    Tech Specs on the back of the card:

    Had three other figures which were Rattrap, Tigatron, and Airazor up for silent auction, but I got beat out on those, lol. :p
