Won’t be going to this one ether or probably the next, or the next after that, so please can some body put a video on youtube when you go there, so that I can watch at the local library with the high speed internet.
By the way my mom is the best of the best of the best at making costumes you should’ve seen my praying mantis one, it was awesome, and probably she could make a transforming costume with working head lights and a small engine that powers the wheels.

Not sure about the prizes, but I do remember that they were presented by Derrick J Wyatt last year.
Many people vlog from TFcon, so if you keep an eye on Youtube, you'll probably see any number of events! Evantainment puts together a DVD every year as well. And hopefully you'll make it to TFcon one of these years - especially if you can create great costumes! Sounds like your mom has some talent!

Looks cool, I'll have to check some feedback from it. I'm allready going to Botcon this year and I probably can't afford another convention. Besides Pasadena is in my state. Ontario is not even in my country.

If I could rewind my purchases, I'd certainly pick up i-Gears. I have nothing against their original products, it's some of the KOs that are a bit tricky for me to appreciate. To each their own I suppose. But yeah, I'm not surprised IT hasn't made anything since. They've just straight up took their purchases and ran. The HeadRobots is a bit of a step down from the D.I.A. Commander back in '09, but hey, not too many things will top that.
And this is why I'm in your life, right?

I think you guys will like the set this year. I'll be going again this year, it's always been well done in the past and like others I've made many friends there over the years.
There's one tinsy thing they are leaving out of their announcement just yet from what I hear, but if it's true then it's sure to get everyone on board this year!

I really want the exclusive but am in the Southern USA. If anyone is going and might be able to pick up or part with a head robot, shoot me a PM. They're selling a non-attending package, but it's $110... but the figure is around $40 if you attend.

Fort Max? Is that who Stronghold is (the head certainly suggested this, but I have to imagine it's going to take a bunch of Reprolabels and still won't look right) ?
Still, I'd rather HeadRobots just put out their Voyager Bludgeon head first.

I'm just glad that the 3rd party product this year is a Headrobots figure. I hated last year's figure with a passion. I'm looking forward to having this on my US Onslaught, and I liked the head when it was done for Hardhead and I think this will be pretty bad ass for "Stronghold".
And my TFCon figure is now secured!!

Just yesterday TFCon unveiled "Stronghold", an exclusive deco of HeadRobots Hothead. Today, TFCon upped the ante by revealing some of Stronghold's backstory:
Seibertron.com is your ultimate Transformer's news source!
TFcon 2011 registration goes is now online. You can pre-register online for TFcon 2011 via this link. Preregistration will run until July 16th at 12pm.

This exclusive will come with a bonus set of Reprolabels that will transform your old action figure into an all new character for your collection.
In command of a lost band of Transformers from before the Great War, Stronghold must now deal with the likes of an escapee war criminal in the form of Zarak. Armed with his Master Cannon and double blasters, this leader of the fabled Head Robots is a force to be reckoned with now that he holds the plans to the mysterious project Maximus...

I would so love to go after all the work I put into this and the pass they offered me but it would cost me $750 just for travel and lodging. 
I've already got 2 other major conventions to attend as well as Anime Blues Con here in Memphis which will be our first anime convention. I will be moderator as well as a guest on the voice actors' panels and the 80s cartoon panel which I'll be showing off some of my videos.

Love the trailer! I love how the animations were done, as well! And to have both Gary Chalk and David Kaye for the trailer? Priceless!

This looks awsome! I just booked my room. This is going to be my first TFcon, I've been to BotCon a few times before, is it much different? Canada was actually cheaper and closer than Pasadena, so why not? Anyway hope to see some of you there!

Awesome! A panel devoted simply to 3rd parties. Can't wait to read what they announce. Either that or this is a ploy to lure them out for Hasbro to take a shot at them, legally speaking of course.

Now this greatly intrigues me. Shame I won't be able to attend. Hopefully they will allow for photography.
