So who here is attending BotCon this week? I'll be there and would love to meet you guys! I am still 50-50 on this one. I am only looking at a one-day admission though (Sat or Sun). I believe RJ member garu is going too. Hey REX, you've been to the Comic-Con too, right? How big is the BotCon dealer room vs SDCC dealer room (approx)?

Ah man, well I hope you can make it! I'll be at the show through Saturday, and am leaving Sunday morning. It'd be nice to meetcha!
Regarding dealer rooms, well... SDCC is huge!!! If you've never been before, let me just say that it is unimaginably gigantic. BotCon is a rather small operation in comparison to SDCC, so the dealer room when I went in 2007 was in a large ball room. Big, but not SDCC big.
I'm not sure what the arrangement will be like in Pasadena, so it's really hard to guess, but I'd imagine it's going to be a decent size given the event.

Yes, I'll be there and would love to meet you guys. I have an idea, one RJ member here "madeinjapan" made an Optimus Prime from scratch, he's going to present that Sunday afternoon, we could all meet there. I'm excited to see his masterpiece... robotjapan.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=fancustom&action=display&thread=14111&page=4 I'm also gonna be there Saturday, I can PM my cellphone number to anyone who's going and just text or call me once you're there.

It's my first time attending but is it just all transformers or any robots? Like Japanese robots, new and vintage. I'm a Transformers fan but not a collector... YET.

I'm a vet when it comes to SDCC ;D I love the Comic-Con! The Pasadena Convention Center was recently renovated so that's a good sign. Hopefully there will be a big dealer room. How about dealer/manufacturer exhibits? Hey REX, are you gonna be in a booth or just spectating this time around?
