We also have a special treat for all of our Seibertronians this year. Every year, there is an auction for a complete set of exclusives for the year to help pay for the room. This year the bidding war got a little excessive and our own Methusalen was kind enough to catch it on video for your entertainment. The winner ended up being the owner of JRS Toyworld, but it costed him quite a bit! To watch the video, click here.

I was happy to pick up a loose Dead End minicon while I was there. Now I
Don't have to open my Unicron to get at him.
Have you returned MegaDave to finish out your advent calender?

I myself am oh so close to completing it. I just need the middle part and I'll have a complete Stormsword.
And for those wondering, the logo "Stogie's Pizza" was actually a reference to one of our regulars to Dairycon, a Mr. "Stogie" Stogbauer.

You are right and wrong. The Stormsword was a co-exclusive for all 3 conventions, however, each piece was not exclusive to any of the conventions. It was random on which one each attendee received. I won my second piece at the Jumpstarter races of that year. I just need the middle and I can die happy.
Also, the three conventions were in Wisconsin, Washington, and The Netherlands. Here's the link: http://www.geocities.com/fredsworkshop/2005.html

Someone told me wrong.
and this Red Star Saber is an outrage on the level of 2k7 Seekers!!! Damn your milk-based elitism! I'm drinking Soy Milk in protest!

Here are the weapons packs used by Plothole:
Just some more of the exclusives that could be won at Dairycon.

I was all ready to go, had the mapquest to get there, had a lil cash to get some goodies. Then the wife tells me my mother inlaw is on her way in from Texas. Flippin grand. Thats like teaming up Galvatron and Megatron together. Dairycon has come and gone, she's still here for another two weeks. HELP!!!!!!!!!

Good luck trying to hunt even one of these buggers down. I got in a bidding war when the middle piece showed up on Ebay once. Went for $50 to some Japanese bidder. Consider the scalper price markup on that when the figure was FREE! Even worse than the 2K7 Seekers in that regard.
Crazy, I know, but I wanted to complete my Stormsword!

I'd drop $50 for each one of those Mini-Cons and not bat an eye.
Remember that if you're ever tired of them.

Hmm...that's tempting. But I like my Minicon collection, so I plan on keeping them.

Poor poor dear! You have my condolences!

Always next year!

It must be worth more than a MISB Fort Max...I WANT IT!

He was made from a little $3 light-up duck keychain that quacks when you press the button to light up the LED... I love him!
I wasn't lucky enough to get myself a Plothole or Spot, but I did get Domino. I took him out of his box and noticed that he had "Wash Me" written on his back window, just like I'd do to my own car after a while... His glow-in-the-dark eyes are a nice touch, and the greasy-looking boxart is a wonderful touch as well! Heck, he even comes with a coupon included to "Stogie's Pizza", which expired the day of the convention...
