Sad news for Australian fans. There will be no Sabretron 2006 convention. This announcement was made by GoktimusPrime of Sabretron. Here is what GoktimusPrime posted:

"It is with extremely heavy heart that I must say that Sabretron looks very unlikely for 2006.

I didn't have anyone step forward to volunteer for doing the artwork on the next exclusive comic book, but more importantly, I've been plagued with various crap in my personal life this year - I've been having a very difficult year at work (and it's only half way through) and having been robbed three times this year has also hit me hard - I'm currently looking for a new place to move to, and of course, moving costs money and time. The current increase in interest rates has driven a slump in the property market making finding a new home exceedingly difficult. I've been looking and applying for a new place for over two months and no luck so far... on top of all the usual trials and tribulations that life tends to throw at ya, I just haven't been able to work on the con. Terribly sorry everyone - as you all know, I would have this con running every year if I could...

My current plan is to restabilise my life and then start focusing my efforts on Sabretron 2007 - hopefully we can ride on the publicity of the movie... I might arrange to hold it in July if no other cons are on (and of course, if I can start organising soon enough).

Once again, my apologies to the fandom for making you all wait yet another year."
