who is the most overrated of the original g1 1984 cast, you think? not including dinobots/insecticons/devastator/any 1985 toys
The absolute king of “being loved despite having no discernible personality and literally never doing anything of note ever” from the 1984 cast is absolutely Sideswipe. He is popular because he is a sexy car.

I’m selling mine...
Is IDW legally allowed to do reprints of the 3H and Fun Publications comics or are they some sort of separate sub-license? I'd love to have some physical collected editions of all that content some day, but I don't know whether or not to hold my breath.
M’not sure how it works exactly. I think if Fun Pub wound up going out of business or closing down they could maybe acquire the rights to reprint, as happened with Dreamwave. With Fun Pub owns the right to reprouce their own stuff right now so far as I understand it, which is why they printed their own direct market editions of BotCon comics. But the first two years of the fan club mag comic (05-06) were co-produced with IDW, so IDW were able to put a trade of that out. With the 3H stuff, I’m not clear if 3H actually went out of business, or if they just lost the BotCon license.

 Exclusively available at TFNation 2017, this comic provides a much-needed narrative conclusion to Transformers Animated!
Tumblr media
Under Sentinel Magnus’s faltering leadership, Cybertron is a powder keg… and the trial of Megatron might just be what causes it to blow!  While Optimus Prime does what he can on the surface, Sari heads underground on a quest for her origins!  What she finds might hold the key to saving Cybertron… if she, Bulkhead, and Bumblebee can survive what lurks in the depths!

TFN17 wrap up post.
Apologies for not doing this sooner. Batteries were still too low!
While my bro and I arrived at the Hilton on Thursday and were met by so many of the friends and faces we only normally get to see at TFN already settled in and having a grand old time, for me the convention-associated shenanigans didn't start until the next day.You see, on Thursday something just as important was yet to happen: Godzilla.
Shin Godzilla was getting a one-night-only screening at select cinemas throughout the UK. If you know me well enough you know that Godzilla *probably* pips just about everything else as the thing I'm the biggest fan of. And the Japanese films have never had a UK cinematic release in my lifetime, until now. I was going, even if I went alone.Luckily I didn't have to. A small group of about seven of us all ended up going, which made it a happier experience for me. Thanks to all of you guys who came, hope you don't just bin the little figs I handed out in appreciation. ;)
For those who may not know, I'm a staff member for TFN. So a great deal of my weekend was spent flitting about doing different jobs here and there, whilst also trying to do a decent showing at the Forge table I was sharing with my bro and our Transmasters UK buds and cohorts Gav and Andy. AND trying to make sure I got to see some of the panels I was most interested in. So it was a very tiring but very satisfying weekend altogether.
Thank you, by the way, to everyone who visited the Forge and supported our arts and crafters (not just our table). I get the impression that it was a much more successful performance than it was last year, and I look forward to reading feedback from those who had stalls and getting a better sense of it all. But honestly I can only see it getting bigger and better in the future, for as long as it is desired.
Speaking of things getting bigger and better: the side panel room. I have to confess that we simply did not expect some of the events going on in there to pull in the numbers of audience that they ended up doing. Again you overwhelm us with your support and enthusiasm, and while we ended up having to repeat some items and relocate the panel room entirely to the next available room of greater size I hope we did so and informed you all promptly enough for it to have not had too negative an impact on your weekend.
Similarly, thank you all for making the Trial And Error comic a resounding success. Thanks in particular to Jim, Chris, and Andy for bringing me aboard to work on this project, and also to Gav and Herz for being wonderful collaborators who ensured the book remained of the highest visual quality throughout and bringing their own visual flair to proceedings. I was honoured, humbled, and very proud to have worked on this project and equally so with this team. I hope you everyone enjoys/ed the comic, and that those who attended the panel on it didn't find my mumbling too incoherent.
The guests I found to all be delightful as well.While I didn't get to speak to her as often as I would have liked in my free time, and didn't get to see her panel at all due to duty, Venus Terzo seemed very much to be a person where to meet her is to love her. She was very enthusiastic and seemed to be riding the wave of general good vibes on quite the high throughout the whole show. And much like Richard Newman last year, just hearing her speak in-character was enough to give me chills.
Mark Ryan was equally as enthusiastic and welcoming, and probably played the audience the most of all the guests. I think he'd be back in a heartbeat if he were asked.
Hal and Maggie were like a whirlwind of voices and energy. There was never a dull moment if you were even in earshot of them. I think it's safe to say that Hal stole the show in the script reading (which I was lucky enough to sit in on rehersals for). Given that he was often holding entire conversations with himself with three very different and distinct OTT characters, he was genuinely a sight to behold.
Maggie also got to create a Transformer for the script reading, giving a voice and personality to the convention's exclusive figure Rune (which I bought one of for her). I think she got a kick out of that, as she signed some things for people on the Sunday with Rune as a credit.Happily I did manage to make sure they all got copies of the prints I did, as well as the original art, very early on. Also managed to get my own copies signed too.
Other first-timers:
It was an honour and so very satisfying to FINALLY get Bob Budiansky to one of these things. He has probably got the dryest wit I ever met.
Jack Lawrence has proven himself to be a great bloke and very much OUR kind of guest. Fully expect him to become a regular.
Sara Pitre Durocher, sadly, I didn't get to spend much time with at all. I introduced myself, gave her a Starscream drawing, and got a couple of autographs, but otherwise I don't think I made her feel very comfortable in my presence. Sorry about that.
And Josh Perez. Oh, my god, Josh Perez.You ever meet someone for the first time and just hit it off? Within half an hour you feel like you've been besties forever? THAT'S Josh Perez. For every-fucking-one. If he doesn't become a regular I will rage-quit my life and go live in his drains or something.
As ever, it's great to see Nick, James, Simon, Geoff, Jim, and Stephen in any capacity. Although I didn't see anywhere near as much as I would have liked of Alex, Kei, and JP. But that goes for in life in general, not just the show.
I don't know where to begin with my friends, though. I was so SO happy to see and be around each and every one of you, no matter how fleetingly. Some of you are my anchors, some of you I knew before but started to get to know better, some of you i'm only really starting to learn about now. But you are all my heart and my family. I can only apologise for the little time most of you got, or that I didn't get the chance to give many goodbyes. Sadly my intorvercy and low self-esteem got the better of me as I watched all these people I loved laughing and joking with each other, and I began to feel somewhat surplus to events and had to make an unnoticed exit. Nothing upsets me more than being that guy, so next year I might handcuff myself into a group and not let it happen.
Because there WILL be next year. Wheels are turning, rooms are booked, invites are written.
Don't forget your shades.
Peace and Respect. Ed Pirrie

Tumblr media
From the reactions we’ve seen online we can see many of our attendees are keen to get their hands on this comic. As a result, we wanted to be clear on the ways in which the comic will be available, to give all attendees a fair chance of purchasing a copy.
1. The book will be available for purchase on the Saturday and Sunday of the convention only. This is to ensure fairness to day ticket holders.
2. Copies will initially be limited to 1 per attendee. This is to ensure as many people as possible at the event can get their copy.
3. The book will be available for purchase at the official TFNation Merchandise desk, which will be located within the main hall.
5. Each copy will be priced at £6.00.
Transformers fans are no strangers to supporting a good cause, and neither are we at TFNation. Therefore, after printing costs are covered, all proceeds of the book will be donated to Mary’s Meals - the great charity which is championed by the Toy-Fu stall.
Don’t miss out on your chance to buy a copy of the book - come to TFNation this August!
