Robot Invasion at MegaCon Orlando Florida

At the last minute I decided to attend MegaCon in Orlando Florida and boy am I glad I did. I had a blast!!! I got to connect with some old friends and make some new ones.

Jim and Yvonne actually host the robot gathering called Robot Invasion and they had some fantastic robots in attendance. There were 2 B9 Robots, at least 5 R/C R2D2's and a few R2 and R5's in various stages of completion, A Full scale Robby, Bender, Death Star Droid, C3Po, FedEx Robot Bust from I, Robot, The 1950's Bus Stop Robots that were animated and a Life Size Cylon from new series Battle Star Galactica.




I met and spoke to Tricia and James from the new battlestar Gallactica and both were great people. In fact James came over to our display and posed with me and the Cylon!!


Another friend I reconnected with was Anne Lockhart from the original Battlestar series. As you probably recall she was here in Denver for last years StarFest and when I asked her to pose for a picture with my Robot she readily agreed. Anyways, as she set up her pictures we chatted and she said she would be over to our display to talk some more and of course take some pictures. She didn't disappoint. She remembered the picture I took in Denver of her and my Robot that and she signed it for me. What a great person.



Here's few couple other pictures from MegaCon 2009.
