    can you for once try and not be a total
    Jackass and just see that anything during these times is a nice gesture?

    This is adorable. Love all the obscure stuff you wouldn't find in retail books too.

    This is super wholesome, I love it.

    ... Honestly I may take a whack at this.

    Does anyone know the artist that did the Armada Cyclonus in the book? I kinda like their style.

    Feeling less optimistic that this will go ahead. Even if lockdown measures are eased soon, there will still be social distancing in place for some time, and starting to see other large events in August are being cancelled. What's the latest on this?

    Sad but not surprising, things are mot going well in the UK without going into details so it would have been potentially dangerous to host an event this summer with outdoor festivals like Leeds and Reading around that time cancelling

    Sad, but sensible to err on the side of caution. As you say, the UK won't be in any shape to do this safely this year.

    You do know TFNation is a UK convention, right?
    That, and now is not a good time for overseas travel.

    And it'll most likely get cancelled too.

    Very sad, it was going to be my first TF Nation but I completely understand. Hope everyone involved is safe and that it there will be a TF Nation when this is all over.

    The biggest thing that sucks about this is having to wait a year to see if Mr Cullen will attend the next convention.

    Not surprised this has happened though (in fact, surprised it wasn't announced sooner), and it's definitely for the best.

    It’s disappointing but I think it was the most sensible thing to. Better safe than sorry. The big shame is of course Cullen but no right choice.
