    Oof… I really need to watch RID2k1… but I can’t ever find the dang thing anywhere because Hasbro apparently disowned it and refuses to sell it.

    RID 2001 is tied up with Saban which is tied up with Disney when it comes to this particular show if I recall. You can find the episodes (most of which are complete or re-edits removing some of the more absurd stuff) on YouTube. Or do like I did and purchased the complete series off FleaBay. Ended up coming from Singapore at a little over $20.

    It doesn't carry as much weight but yeah it counts.

    Other G1 Transformers with Multiple VA's
    Skids (Dan Gilvezan and Michael Chain)
    Outback (Dan Gilvezan and Gregg Berger)
    Breakdown (Alan Oppenheimer and Jack Angel)
    Ultra Magnus (Robert Stack and Jack Angel)
    Galvatron( Lenard Nemoy and Frank Welker)
    Hotrod(Judd Nelson and Dick Gautier)
    Kup( Lionel Standar and John Stephenson)
    Wreckgar( Eric Idle and Tony Pope)
    Unicron(Orson Welles and Roger C Carmel)
    Cyclonus(Roger C Carmel and Jack Angel)
    Onslaught( S. Marc Jordan, Terry Mcgovern, and Steve Bulen)
    Superion(Frank Welker and Ed Gilbert)
    Thundercracker( John Stephenson and Wally Burr)

    I have a few dual signed pieces, however I don't know if I can bring myself to have my John Stephenson autographed Windcharger dual signed by Terry. I could definitely go for an autographed print of Windcharger from Masquerade.

    I just bought tickets to this, it will be my 2nd Tfcon after the one that just took place in Chicago. It was a lot of fun and I got to meet the gracious Paul Eiding. Buying 3rd party transformers and vintage G1 in person was cool, but the best part of the convention was meeting Paul and going to the panels. I was told to do the LA one if I wanted to meet voice actors and the list of actors announced so far does not disappoint. I'll be spending all my money at this one on autographs.

    An aside, the guy in front of me in line to meet Paul Eiding had an original 86 movie poster that he had been bring to conventions for years. He had nearly the entire cast's autographs, including the guest actors like Judd Nelson and Leonard Nimoy. That thing is probably worth quite a bit of money.

    There was one in October 2021 in Baltimore. Maybe they'll visit there again in the future. The LA one is more a slam dunk for guests because it's basically in their backyard. It's easy money for the local guests to attend.

    Baltimore to Orlando is a shorter drive than the one I did in September from Denver to Chicago.

    Man I wish tfcon would come to the south. Alabama is not the best place to be a diehard tf fan.

    Is this Bob's first appearance? If it's not, he's not been to a convention in a very long time. I couldn't find any documented appearances for him.

    All they need now is Wayne "Wankus" Lewis to complete the RID 2001 Car Brothers.

    I wish Michael Chain would go to one of these. He doesn't seem to be working as an actor anymore but Powerglide and Red Alert are two of my favorite Autobots. I'd love to get their G1 packages autographed by the man who brought them to life.

    I really liked his Hot Rod. Especially him stepping up as a reluctant leader rather than a destined one.

    I agree his Hotrod was really good.
    I met him in New York last year, he's a really nice guy.
