From the desk of Viper6:
“Myself and Neuspeaq hit this con hard, arriving early 9 Aug for the preregistration and hotel check in. It was the first TF con I had attended and it was Jose’s first con of any sort.
The crown plaza was great and the pre registration packet was pretty cool, with a convention book, access badge, sharkticon pin, numerous pieces of artwork, a paper build-a-bot of sharkticon, a convention poster and a door prize ticket for the sunday auction, which we sadly did not win but some lucky fuckers took home a fortris maximus, a metroplex, an ironhide and ratchet set, and a limited edition “land shark” figure.
We hung out with some great con goers at the hotel’s birch bar (thoroughly rep’n OG13 and Mayhem Customs), invented a highly poularized con themed shot “the energon explosion” equal parts cranberry, chopin vodka, and hypnotic in a beer glass, drop in shot of redbull and viola!!!….its energon colored and tastes great too. then the fuckers ran out of hypnotic 
I think we were up til about 0430 or so, polished off two bottles of apothic red in an attempt to be sophisticated and headed outside to kick it with the creator of the con exclusive landshark figure, which i managed to score the next day despite the fact we overslept and didnt get in line in time to buy it then. I paid more for it after jose found a guy willing to let it go, but its well worth it, quite a nice lil figure (basically bulk head painted up as a sharkticon with new head and accessories).
Alot of the other stuff i wanted sold out fast, no t shirt, no glass, and a lot of the third party stuff at the dealer tables didnt last long either (guess im ordering my other stunticons on line). I did snag the third party jumpstarters, and this is where it gets cool, i got brian shearer and john wycough aka “waki” to autograph the charticon jumpstarters ambushed by sharkticon poster that they drew for the con. that was the start of a great conversation where in both checked out my custom work via my smart phone and waki asked if i could make him some 40k 1/18th figures. i suggested he illustrate some of my fan fics as compensation and he agreed! this could be the start of something fan-fucking-tastic.”
