Awesum Possum

Rally Rhino

Burning Monkey

Battle Bat

Oh. My. God. *FIVE* Figures?

Dairycon Staffers confirmed that, yes, there will be FIVE figures available to PreRegistrants who sign up for Dairycon.

No further information was given when we asked about how these would come (in a boxset, packaged individually, etc), however, they did say this: "Originally, the 'Battle Bat' figure was given (to another show) as our foreign market exclusive, and was not intended to be available at Dairycon. However, since there is Fan Demand for it, we will do our best to make sure that this figure is also available here as well."

With the previous reveals of Barn, CosMoo, and NeoKnight, seeing FIVE MORE figures at Dairycon is just... it's just....

Wow.

There's only one week to go! Register Today!

An announcement from Dairyon Regarding the current controversy involving 3rd party and other non-official TF products:


"We would like all of our dealers, fans and friends of Dairycon to know they can participate in our Show without having their items confiscated or removed. You can proceed with confidence knowing your official, 3rd party, customs, and other toys and materials are always welcome.

The Dairycon staff would also like to extend our warmest thanks to the great fans that make the convention what it is. You all help make Dairycon an incredible fan-friendly experience and we are eternally grateful.

We value all our fine dealers and friends who have attended and supported Dairycon throughout the years.

We are looking forward to seeing everyone at Dairycon 2012!"

You wanna win friends, Dairycon, you should have said something more perofessional, "Yes, as an unnoffical convention not affiliated with Hasbro or TT, we do allow other items into the Vendor Hall and will continue to do so."

There are much more diplomatic ways to have said that, instead of mocking TFCC. I mean, come on. Hasbro's got the right to protect their property, and yes, I buy the 3rd Party stuff too but the Transfomers are all their propewrty, just as Potter is still Rowling's even though she's done with them. TFCC is a child company, they HAVE to respect Hasbro's wishes, there's no other option.

I agree, it could have been stated better. You can't have your club name printed on official products and support 3rd parties. Fun Pub has no other choice.

I'm sure there is a bit of animosity still, with Botcon throwing out an early con and overlapping Dairycon due to Joecon and the anniversary, and those things associated. Competition is ugly. But did Botcon state no 3rd parties before pre-reg? In my opinion, it's common sense that these items wouldn't be in any ways promoted or encouraged, but to have them confiscated on any level should have been addressed before registration opened.

All 3rd party items will be taken and made the property of Hasbro and or given to authorities. Sellers will be escorted out and possibly perm banned from ever attending again. Not That I give much of a crap about personally, cause I only go as a fan I get my stuff direct from my own suppliers, but its still messed up.

You started a conversation about details I never wanted to discuss, and that goes for the rest of you. If you dont have something pos to say. Dont you dare comment back on anything Ive said. Your all acting like a bunch of wanna be lawyers who act as if your getting ready to take your bar exam. For Christs sake. move on.. You don't like 3rd party toys, wonderful, more for me!!! If you do, congrats, we agree. But to set here and argue is a real arsewipe thing to do, and Im done with you all. Minus the real fans.. And ohhhh yes.. I meant the real fans. The ones that are here just wanting to be heard and not pretend their freaking Perry mason. lol. Night..

In other words, you're acting illegally, you know it, you have no retort and so you're now trash talking people- then again, considering you resorted to eugenic slurs in another thread by calling anyone who disagreed with you "handicapped", it's hardly anything new for you.

As for the discussion let's recap. You came in, defending your secondary bread and butter, got called out on it and resorted to insults when you saw your position was untenable, putting the final nail in the coffin by going to "real fan" territory.

You then posted a link to this thread in the other thread where this was happening, not only making those who might not be aware of it aware of it, but in doing so, making them aware of this discussion.

What you fail to grasp is that you don't have to be a lawyer here to see what's going on- just have a clear understanding of the underlying ethics.

Now I get why that would be devastating for you and your business - as from what I can tell of the vast majority of your posts (both in terms of you defending bootlegs and plugging your site where you sell them) your plan in joining here was to try and drum up business for your site (which is fair enough on your part).

However what you clearly weren't counting on and what you need to accept is that when you trade in dodgy merchandise, which KOs are, that while some people wont care, others will have ethical concerns and will call you out on it- that's entirely their right.

This may be an alien concept to you, but society expects adults to be accountable- that's all the new Botcon dealer T&C forces dealers to be.
