I was there on the first day, and I still missed out on Generations Drift. I was literally trying to eagle eye Drift all day long, but couldn't find any (ended up hitting lots of people with my bag because I was looking that hard D: sorry!). I actually spoke to Vangelus/Chris for a while, and he told me there was a dealer selling Drifts, but when I got there, they were already sold out... Bawwwwlllll D:

I was there right when the show opened, and I did a through first look through of the dealer room, never noticed the Generations stuff

Re: Toys you were hoping to find/buy at TFcon but didn't buy for whatever reason
Was looking for 6" Titanium Grimlock and Prowl to complete the collection. I found them on Saturday morning but thought they were too expensive so went looking for better deals. By the time I cam back for them they were gone. I did find some other deals though so I don't know if I missed out or not.
I did find a loose but complete Brainstorm but by the time I saw him the seller said he was on hold for someone else. The only other headmasters I found anywhere near complete were at Russ's table and while I've dealt with Russ before and don't mind the guy I didn't feel like remortgaging my house.

Re: Toys you were hoping to find/buy at TFcon but didn't buy for whatever reason
I regret of not picking up the G1 yellow Bumble-jumper minicar and the G1 Squawkbox set at first sight.
I was hoping to get a Japanese G1 Galaxy Shuttle... yes, yes, I know it is a long shot. There was none to be found AFAIK (and yes, I was there for the Early Bord Saturday).

Fansproject table, so I could get Warbot Defendor. I found one and it was $90 I should of jumped on him when I had the chance.
Alternity Skywarp. I think I missed out.
Alternator Decepticharge or Overdrive at a sane price. I saw a MIB Decpticharge being ask for at $90. I'll pass and look elsewhere.

4)Was looking for a Classics Universe Dirge junker to harvest for parts (spring and rotator joints)but didn't find any.

Were you there early Saturday? I saw a couple Classics Nemisis Primes, for decent prices too ($60ish) but they went fast. Good thing I saved that Universe Dirge from you, he looked too good to be trashed, lol.

Re: Toys you were hoping to find/buy at TFcon but didn't buy for whatever reason
[QUOTE=Mighty Galvatron;255935]I was hoping to find a complete G1 Chromedome that was both in good condition and at a reasonable price...Alas, no such luck. Same goes with G1 Shockwave...
I passed on a Titanium G1 Ultra Magnus - but now I regret not picking it up. It was loose, but seemed to be in good condition. Actually that figure really blew my mind because I had no idea it even existed. I mean, a metal G1 Magnus that transforms nicely, and you don't attach a trailer to a white Prime and then build it with Lego until it's finally Ultra Magnus! Yeah I regret not getting this...Oh, and I sort-of regret not picking up Titanium Thrust - but no biggie.
You should have got the Titanium Thrust, I got mine boxed for $25 better than the $30, $32 and $40 I saw elsewhere in the con.

You saw a G1 Squawkbox set? How much was it going for? I'll be kicking myself for missing that.

I saw one going for $80.
I'm glad I got my set at the Burlington Toy show in april for $30 - Both cassettes, mint, loose complete with tech specs.
Cheers!
