    If you're Paul Hitchens, you worked a nice trade with teenage me back at Botcon 1998 at your sales table!

    Very cool. I also recall a young kid with his mom asking about a loose G1 Hot Rod and you just gave it to him for free and made his day :)

    Ha ha, yes that was me.
    I've been giving away toys to kids at shows for 25 odd years now.

    I remember that one especially as another guy at the table was outraged I would give away a toy but not haggle with him!

    Another memory just came to me from that day - while I was standing in line to talk with Paul, I heard a very convincing "well that's just prime!" behind me and turned around to compliment the impressionist, but it was Garry Chalk! He signed my clamshell Beast Wars VHS tape case and seemed very happy to be there.

    I guess this would be cheaper than owning my catalog. But I have the real one. lol. It's like taking a picture of a Mona Lisa. Lol..Anyways... My idea is to make high quality copies. Take it to a publishing company and sell them. Maybe next year..
