Brickvention

So for those in Melbourne 'Brickvention' is on this weekend, "australia's premier fan run convention". I was thinking of heading down tomorrow but it seems to be sold out! Popular stuff... did anyone go today or has anyone been to similar things before?

I have tickets for tomorrow. I have been many times, and it is quite impressive.

I haven't been to Brickvention in years since the last one I went to was underwhelming. Was pleasantly surprised with the quality of displays this time around.

There was a Transformers display which I took horrible photos of. No amount of automatic image stabilisation can compensate for carrying a toddler in the other arm.

We had a chat to that guy. All of them actually transform. He is working on a better Bumblebee as that is the one most people ask about.

He is also working on a Megatron the same size as that tall Optimus.

The Constructicons can form Devastator but he said it is really top heavy.

Was he selling instructions at all? That Megatron looks mighty impressive.

It’s on again - this Saturday and Sunday 18-19/1/20. I’m booked with the family for 1pm entry on Saturday.

Hope my kids are in better moods then than they were today when we took them to the shops otherwise it’s going to be a painful trip to the city.
