TFcon was a bit of a hassle on my end. First of all, the USPS lost one of the boxes that was part of a friend of mine's artist alley table. So, we did not have everything that we needed for her setup. The box finally showed up the day that we leave the hotel. Luckily, the hotel is sending it back to us. While this was going on, one of my credit cards got hacked not once but twice in one night. Luckily, my bank reissued a new card a couple days later. Due to the hassle, I was pretty limited on how much I could spend…I managed to get a MP Ramjet and a Lil'Formers commission. In all, I had a good time in Chicago.
Ragnar
Had a WI beer. Hit the spot, thanks!
Bed Bugs
Yep! That was mine. LOL Did I give ya a beer or soda? Tried to offer to anyone that came in the room.
Ragnar
I think we may've met as I remember checking out somebody's Encore Devastator giftset in the Dairycon room on Friday night. Would've been cool if our online names were on our TFCon nametags.

Anybody snag video of the script read? Saw a few filming, but nothing's ended up on youtube so far, and it gets harder to find people who filmed the more time passes.
Bed Bugs
Didn't get a chance to meet Grimlockimus or Ragnar, but I did buy an Encore Devastator giftset from OptimistPrime.
Dairycon also increased it's Jumpstarter hoard for the races this spring too.

I stayed at the conference hotel, and for me parking was $10 per day. I could come and go from the hotel parking garage as needed and still have a spot. Not sure if the $10 daily rate held true if you didn't stay at the conference hotel.

Just want to thank everyone that stop by our room sale and our booth this year. Thank you for making it a great show for us.

There is somewhere down there with free parking??? The hotel parking was $27. I ended up across the street at the convention center and paid $15. Wasn't too bad of a walk. I managed to park on the same level as the skyway that led over to the hotel.

I am in the artist alley along BDixonarts who is a member and did the colors for the convention comic. On her table, we have Rainmaker customs to look at.

So where are all the TFW members? So far I've seen only a couple of members I know and I don't know what anyone else looks like

Mexican Prowl?
Cascadia
I have a few figures with me to sell due to flying across the country. I have a set of my Rainmakers customs (classics mold) along with my Mexican Prowl. If either of these interest anyone, let me know.
