Everyone should make the trip out to Wichita for TF-Expo. The new location is fantastic and right in the heart of the Old Town entertainment district. There is something for everyone within walking distance. Theaters, Bars, Clubs, lots of Restaurants, great shopping, etc. There will be a Farmers Market in the morning and Street Musicians and performers during the day and evening.
I am telling you, there is something going on for everyone.

Just announced is another big guest for TFExpo 2016 happening August 5 and 6 in Wichita, KS is Beast Wars Megatron himself David Kaye.
TFExpo wrote:TFExpo is thrilled to announce that David Kaye will be attending TFExpo 2016! Transformers fans know David very well as the voice of the sinister Beast Wars Megatron in that series, which celebrates its 20th Anniversary this year. But he can also be heard as Transformers Animated Optimus Prime and many other characters throughout the franchise. With impressive voiceover credits including Mobile Suit Gundam Wing, Ratchet and Clank Movie, Dragon Ball Z, and now as the voice behind Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, David is one busy guy. Please help us make him feel welcome on his first trip to Wichita, Kansas! Ultra Packages, including dinner with the stars, a seat at the TFExpo script reading, and your picture taken with David AND Michael Bell ARE still available as of this writing, but we expect these to go VERY quickly with this announcement. Please don't delay, register right now at tf-expo.com

Our friends over at TFExpo sent out the following press release letting us know that the show is happening this weekend August 5 and 6 in Wichita, KS. Also check out below for info on the charity auction benefitting K-9 Karma Animal Advocates.
Transformers fans will gather in Wichita, Kansas this weekend for TFExpo 2016, at the Hotel at Old Town in Wichita, Kansas. Special guests include fan-favorite Transformers voice actors David Kaye and Michael Bell, as well as IDW Comics artist Casey Coller and toy reviewer Optibotimus. Our guests will be meeting fans, holding Q&A panels and signing autographs throughout the day.
To celebrate the 30th Anniversary weekend of Transformers: The Movie, the historic Wichita Orpheum Theatre is holding a theatrical screening of the movie Friday night at 8pm. Movie attendees will be able to shop from vendors for souvenirs and see their favorite childhood memories on the big screen once again! A special appearance by Michael Bell is planned at this event. Tickets are still available at wichitaorpheum.com.
For TFExpo, the convention will be open from 2-5pm on Friday and 10am-5pm Saturday (doors open one hour earlier on Saturday for pre-registrants). For advance tickets or more information please visit tf-expo.com. Captured Prey is giving a free Titan Master to the first 25 people in line Saturday Morning.
See you at TFExpo 2016!
After successful fundraising efforts last year, TFExpo 2016 is proud to announce the return of the TFExpo charity auction! This year's auction will be held prior to the showing of Transformers the Movie on Friday at the Wichita Orpheum. TFExpo Special Guest Michael Bell will be on hand to help emcee, which should be a lot of fun. Various goods are being donated for the auction, but we can announce a VERY big one right now:
Titans Return Fortress Maximus!
That's right, thanks to a very generous donation from our friends at BigBadToyStore, and thanks to TFExpo 2016 sponsor Optibotimus for arranging it, TFExpo will be auctioning off a brand-new Hasbro Fort Max!
This year's auction benefits K-9 Karma Animal Advocates Inc., a pet rescue here in Wichita. 100% of the proceeds from the auction will go directly to this great organization. For more information on them visit ksdogrescue.com, and for more information on TFExpo visit tf-expo.com!
