I heard you guys got sweet movie poster stickers designed by Paul Lee. That's pretty cool.

We did! I still need to post pictures of them, they look really cool (almost too cool to use!)

 

You should come to BrickUniverse in Dallas in November!

Knowing now who all's going, I decided to or register. Sounds like it's going to be a fun time!

Sounds like I missed a good one this year!

 

I'm so glad everyone had a great time and I'm sorry I missed it. I think much of this is just part of growing up. This type of cohesion isn't something I think happens without introspection and experience.

 

Can't wait to meet up again next year (hopefully in Vancouver?)

Nice! I'm attending as well.

 

I won't lie - RTX is a bit if a roller coaster - especially if it's your first time. However, RTX really is a lot if fun and most of all, everyone here is really nice. The Guardians are polite and helpful, and I think that trickles down to the community and attendees. If you ever get lost, just find a Guardian and they should be able to help (without making you feel too dumb).

 

 

Maybe we'll run into each at some point. It's always fun to meet more Rooster Teeth fans.

Do you think you'll have a strange attachment after you leave?

Not too attached, but four months later and I still have fond memories of how folks looked over there. 

 

If only it wasn't so cold!

If I can find a store that has them I'll definitely make the attempt!  

Awesome man! I'll be attending RTX as well (bought a weekend pass). Hopefully, there'll be a little more space at the center this time. 

Yeah, Canada did roll deep this year didn't they?

 

I'm awesome that we got to meet, Letagi! I'm glad you had a good time.

It would very much appear so. 

I can't believe it's been a year already. Look forward you seeing you there!

I've been to Brick Fiesta twice, and I plan on going again this year!

 

The first year was the best, IMO, because it was in Austin and I feel that the venue there was the most fun (thanks to the many things to check out and do outside of the convention). Since it's going to be in Austin again this year, I'm hoping that this will be the best and biggest Fiesta yet.

 

The best way I can describe it is that it's like all the pictures you see of Brickfair VA or BrickCon, but the venue's going to be smaller (so I guess more like Cascade or the newer cons). Less MOCs and less vendors (though if this would be your first LEGO con experience I think that's perfect. Brickfair VA was my first and it was kind of overwhelming).  I think the key question to consider is how interested you are in seeing many MOCs in person and interested you are in buying custom pieces and other cool stuff from vendors. Not to mention the free sets (can't forget about those!)

 

For the two times I was able to attend (Austin and Dallas), I loved the MOCs and displays. Kevin Hinkle was also there (both times), hosting a panel for AFOLs to ask all sort of wonderful questions (monorail?). Here's a short wrap-up post with pictures you want an idea of what kind of MOCs to expect.  I talked about it on a BZPowercast episode too, but I'm not gonna dig around to find that -- I basically said what I just wrote here I think. 

 

I'll be honest though: I mostly go to LEGO cons just to hang with people like DeeVee, Nukaya, Black Six, etc. I'm going to Brick Fiesta this year mostly because it's only like 15 minutes away.

 

Overall, it's no Brickfair VA, but Fiesta is a decent con. I'd recommend attending. 

I'm sorry to hear about the challenges you had to face last year (and those you'll have to face in the future), but I'm inspired to see you optimistic about 2015. I could also rant about the very dry proceedings of the dreaded 9 to 5 as well. But, as you implied, a lot of other people would probably kill to have their lot in life be like yours or mine. Anyway, whatever you have planned, I say go for, or at least, go for planning the thing you should go for.

 

Best of luck this year!

And here I thought PDX was it for you. I hope you both end up enjoying your warmer, brighter city. And don't think I won't come stalking after y'all in San Diego sooner or later. I've never been and I've heard great things about it!

Yeah that's what I figured. In which case, it could be either case, depending on what I exactly want "power" to refer to. I'm going sans-"The" because that just sounds better to me, and there are multiple powers in play for this story. 

 

It's good that I won't have to worry about someone nitpicking my title on eventual release date. Thanks, y'all. 

Yeah, I saw messages about that and was just like "nope". I've done my share of waiting outside here in Austin. At least it's not too bad outside today. 

 

That would be pretty awesome if you got called though. Best of luck!

That's awesome man. I suppose y'all are better at keeping things on the DL than I would've guessed. I wish I could have joined you guys, but then again, there's always time later on to get a glimpse of all your new stuff.

 

Basically, this means I HAVE to return to the PNW at some point. 

But they cost soooo much money! and you know you can't just buy one of those guys.

So jealous. It sounds like it's gonna be an awesome time! Have fun!

Well, it wouldn't have been very considerate of me to make a Tomodachi Life reference at first, now would it? (yeah, it was a 50/50 chance. Erred on a the side of caution)

 

Congrats all the same.  

 

 

 Excuse me while I resume my inactive status. 

Nooo come back!

 

Congratulations though! It looks like things are really on track for you!

where are the bodies

In front of their computers. With their eyes reading these words.

 

(including yours!)

Have fun! I had an amazing time last year, and considering you all are getting an extra day this year.... yeah I'm kinda jealous.
