Overwhelmingly the one thing that people want more than anything else at TF conventions is toy dealers. And we already have them at regular collectable fairs throughout the country... so another challenge is to organise a convention that is more than just another collectable toy fair - like at Sabretron we had games & trivia with prizes, exclusive stuff etc., OzToyCon had trivia, griffin's big TF toy history tour, BotCon presentation etc. -- but still not enough to really draw in sufficient numbers. It's nice for some people to say that they want conventions, but when they were organised, the numbers were just lacking.

The best way to support TF conventions is to have attended them... and I am most grateful to everyone who attended previous TF cons, but as you would have witnessed, there just weren't enough people.

Perhaps the next best thing might be to go back to running an Australian TF fan booth at SupaNova? But again, without Hasbro's support it might prove difficult... e.g. unless you're a dealer (which attracts higher registration costs), you're not supposed to sell anything that isn't your intellectual property.
