and Landmine. There's also his roles as Naraku on InuYasha and Graham Aker in Gundam 00 my two favourite non-Transformer roles of his.
Ah I see. Yeah I bet he'd get a kick out of that.

Anywhere near the bottom, I know he's not on the page but I really want all remaining beastwars voice actors to sign it. The 2001 bottom cover includes a fuller cast line up but I've only got Davids signature on it. I've found that the voice actors appreciate seeing how many of their former colleagues have signed this single piece.

I think one of the Dobsons would be awesome! Personally want to meet Paul Dobson most of all though (loved Sideways, Obsidian and obviously Tankor XD).

I don't see Rhinox on that poster. where would you have him sign there?
I agree. A lot of the Unicron Trilogy VA's would be awesome guests. I'd suggest any of the Dobson brothers. I know they once attended BotCon in 2005.

So, the round up.
G1 = Optimus Prime, Blurr, Tracks, Cosmos
BW = Rhinox
BM = Tankor
RiD01 = Hot Shot, Ironhide
ARM =
ENER =
CYB = Vector Prime
Animated = Blurr
Prime = Optimus Prime
RiD15 = Optimus Prime
Live action films = Optimus Prime
Now if we can get just ONE MORE guest that was in Armada and Energon, we'd have the entire franchise covered.

It's good he's coming, and his bad times seem to be getting over.
Here's hoping he lends his voice to future shows, especially a TF show.

Me too.
I would loved to get his autograph on my beastwars rhinox but mostly on my beastwars centerfold in my botcon 2000 book.

Sounds like his daughter showed him our advice about joining the con circuit. Good to hear!

Glad to hear he took the advice of quite a few fans and is attending some conventions to help out with the financial issues he's recently been having.
Though this just makes me really wish I could attend this year and meet him. For me I'll just have to cross my fingers and hope he'd be willing to do TFcon Chicago in 2016.

Wish I could have been able to go to TFcon to help him out (and get some cool items signed in the process). I would've have my Generations Rhinox, Tankor and Cybertron Vector Prime autographed.

Well I think my mind just exploded!!!! My favourite TF's voice actor getting a con appearance at a con that I'm going to???!!! I can't believe it!!!! Gonna have to track down some Tankors at the con to get signed as well.
I'm really going to have to rush to get all my artwork done on time now. Thought I had a time crunch before but now I'm definitely going to have to rush to get all my artword done! XD

Aw yeah, Rhinox is awesome! I hope his appearance at the convention is the start of a brighter time for the talented Mr Newman.
(also, finally got my Gen Rhinox this week.. Wouldn't love the character half as much without his great work on Beast Wars.)
Edit: pretty damn stellar lineup, looking at it! Wish I lived in Canada!
