UK Transformers convention
Auto Assembly will not be taking place this year.
That's the sad news from convention organisers Sven Harvey and Simon Plumbe. The event had been doubtful, due to non-convention issues, and yesterday the Auto Assembly team
confirmed that the event would not be
taking place.
With Transforce 2007 also on hold, this leaves the UK without a
Transformers convention for the first time since 1998
(and will be the first time in 5 years that Auto Assembly will not take place).
It's all not bad news though, as the AA team (Infinite Frontiers) have said they are hoping to arrange a general Sci-Fi convention.
Finally, while there won't be an AUTO ASSEMBLY in 2007, there WILL be an event from us here at INFINITE FRONTIERS... we are
currently in the early concept stages of preparing to run a small scale sci-fi and collectors fair here in Birmingham some time in 2007!! It
will be a similar event to those found across the UK with dealers and VERY cheap admission price covering Transformers, comics, sci-fi
merchandise and everything else.. but we'll release more details on this as we have it so watch this space!!

Botcon.com has been updated this evening with the following new regarding hotel rooms which we reported had run out a few days ago.
Response has been tremendous! The Westin has run out of rooms with double beds and the room block is pretty much full. They are still trying to add rooms as they can.
We are now working on an additional block of rooms at an additional hotel.
Hang tight, we are working hard to get a good rate at the additional hotel.
This will be in place next week and we will pass the information along as soon as we have final details. BotCon 2007 is going to be HUGE!

Paul Canon has announced that Neil Kaplan, voice of Optimus Prime in Robots in Disguise, will become the first ever voice actor to attend a
Transforce event. Neil previously attended Auto Assembly 2005 where he proved to be a big hit with the fans, probably more so then many were expecting.
Neil joins
Nick Roche, Simon Furman, Andrew Wildman, Lew Stringer and Liam
Shalloo (Limabean) as Transforces guests.

Feeling creative? Why not submit some work to
Transforce 2007's Kitbash competition or the Fan Cinema? If we had any artistic flair we'd do both, but the only flair we have is a 6" WWE toy. Here's Paul Canon's lowdown :-
OK, so who out there want to make something for the fan cinema or kitbash competition? It's time to start getting organised.
Need a bit of inspiration, then check out the new events section of the Transforce web site http://www.transforce.org.uk/2007events.htm
Paul.
