Greg Gaub stopped by our 2005 Boards to share with us some exciting news – the announcement of this year’s Cybertronian Conferance, aka CybCon 2013! CybCon 2013 will be held on Saturday, August 10th, at the King Oscar Convention Center in Tacoma, WA.
The best news is that this year, only dealers need register! More information is coming – watch this space for further details and updates.

My photos from CybCon are now up on my site, linked from the CybCon 2013 info page. Here's a direct link:

Thanks for all the well wishes, not to mention the generous gift from so many of you.
It was a great time, though bittersweet in many ways.
LONG LIVE CYBFEST!

Another awesome time this year. Spent way too much, but oh well.
Also was able to hit up the Gig Harbor Target on the way home and grab Darksteel (they were fully stocked of Wave 1 of the Predacons Rising on Saturday if anyone is looking).
IMO, the exclusive was one of the best Cybcon has ever had. My blaze sabers looks great on Thundertron and a now dual-wielding Voyager BH Optimus.
It was a fantastic way to finish things up Greg. I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say thanks a million for all the hard work you and everyone else has done over the years. We'll all look forward to seeing you take a break at next year's CybFest.

I had a great time as always yesterday. Thank you, Greg, for all the effort you have put into making this happen over the years.

As I head out the door to the event, I want to give a reminder that Cybcon is today!

Thanks, Fred! It should be a good time!
You didn't keep one of each exclusive for yourself? Silly man. ๐

Luck with the convention. For all those going, enjoy. Still fondly remember my first Botcon. And good luck on the retirement Greg. Much props keeping it going for 14 years.
Also apologies, but quick ask for anyone who's gone past years, 2011 in particular. That or anyone going this year and happens across one on a table… Anyone who has the 2011 Cybcon Actionmaster Ravage exclusive and willing to part with, give me a ring. I have 5 of the 6 figures from this set, with the white one on the way. Just missing this one. Throw myself at mercy of court

You wish. That was the very first CybCon custom toy, by Dave 'Zobovor' Edwards over 10 years ago. The only way you'll see one of those outside of my CybCon exclusives display case (there every year!) will be if someone REALLY crazy wants to try and cash in… but the few I know who have them won't let them go, or don't come to CybCon any more.

Hmm, Beast Machines Scavenger in G1 colors? A surprise for the auction table maybe?

Although Zazzle screwed me with the CybCon 2013 shirt getting denied, and then letting me do one now, which is way too late to get on time… WE CAN MAKE OUR OWN! For the next week, you can download the high res file of Psychoshi's artwork and make your own shirt! Grab it while it's hot!

I picked up a light color shirt and a dark one to try both kinds of iron-ons. I'll wear whichever looks better.
You can buy the Zazzle one, if you want. A light color might ship in time, but dark colors take a week to process. Or order one for future wearing, just 'cus the art is frickin AWESOME!

Quick reminder that CybCon exclusive Blaze Saber pre-orders end tonight! If you don't pre-order, you probably won't get one!

Feel free to contact me at any time. I'll be happy to contribute in any way that I can.
Yeah, a CybFest thread for things when there are things to post about would rock.

You're right Greg, didn't mean to take focus off Cybcon.
Bendimus Prime
I have absolutely 0 artistic talent, but if you need any help getting things together for next year, I'd be glad to pitch in.

Geez, guys, wait until the body's cold, at least! ๐
But seriously, CybCon 2013 is still happening. Let's focus on that until August 11th.
Nothing wrong with a new thread about CybFest, though. ๐
