Transformers Convention News

TFNation have announced the huge news that Su Blue will be their headline guest for TFNation  2023, the 3-day Transfomers convention that takes place in Birmingham England each August! You can read the full press release below.

SHORT ANNOUNCEMENT

 
- G1 Arcee Actor and Transformers Voice Director, Susan Blu, is coming to TFNation 2023!
- Autograph opportunity included within your regular ticket price, though demand may exceed available time.
- Optional Legend Pass available, to guarantee a signing slot, photograph and more.
- All ticket sales starting 3rd December 2022.
- Bedroom announcement to follow, with bedroom sales from early 2023.

FULL ANNOUNCEMENT

We're delighted to announce renowned voice actor and director Susan Blu will be joining us at TFNation 2023 for her first ever UK convention appearance!

Susan first became known to Transformers fans when she was cast as the forceful female Autobot, Arcee, in 1986's The Transformers: The Movie. She would continue to portray the character in seasons three and four of the original cartoon, as well as voicing numerous other characters, most notably Earth Defence Command Officer Marissa Faireborn. Susan would return to the role of Arcee after 21 years for the fan-favourite series, Transformers: Animated.

Though TFNationals will remember her most fondly as Arcee, Susan is an accomplished actor with many memorable roles under her belt, including Stormer and Lindsay Pierce from Jem, Galadria from Visionaries, Buttons from My Little Pony and Granny Smurf from The Smurfs! In the world of the Cybertronians her additional roles include Transmutate from Beast Wars and Flareup from Transformers: Animated. If you're made of sterner stuff, you can see her on screen in Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood!

Acting, however, was only the start of Susan's incredibly successful career. Away from the microphone (but not too far away!) she progressed to numerous roles including Voice Director, Dialogue Director and Casting Director on well-known shows such as Extreme Ghostbusters and the 1987 and 2003 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series.

Following her time on the Sunbow produced Transformers cartoon, Susan went on to work as Voice Director on Beast Wars, Beast Machines and season one of Transformers: Prime. She also worked as Casting Director on Transformers: Animated. If you're a Transformers fan, you've almost certainly enjoyed Susan's incredible contributions over several decades. 

Susan is excited to meet all of you and we know you'll give her an incredibly warm TFNation welcome!

 (Please note: Susan Blu, like all guests, appears at TFNation strictly subject to professional commitments, and all advertised guest lists are subject to change without notice. All panel rooms are subject to capacity limits. Terms and Conditions of sale apply on this small world and all others, Cybertron being no exception) 

“ONLY HUMAN”

We know meeting Susan Blu at TFNation is a real bucket-list item for many of our attendees, so we're thrilled to be able to bring this opportunity to you.

Susan is incredibly friendly and is excited to attend TFNation and meet as many of you as possible; however, it's important for us to manage the situation correctly as we expect Susan to be one of our most popular guests to date.

With our guest’s comfort, the attendee experience, and event logistics in mind, we've decided the best way to proceed is to provide an additional, optional offering for this special event, which we're calling The Legend Pass. You don't need to buy this for a chance of meeting Susan, but The Legend Pass will enable you to secure a guaranteed slot and some extra goodies to mark the occasion. 

The Legend Pass is a new offering for TFNation, so below you'll find a full explanation; we've also written a Legend Pass FAQ and a General TFNation 2023 FAQ which will hopefully answer any questions you may have.  Please read them both carefully to ensure, as Arcee might say… you understand the situation.  

TFNATION 2023: THE LEGEND PASS
(Limited Edition)
Price: £75.00 

This package includes; 

  • In-person autograph signing in a private function room. 
  • One autograph, on any one item you wish to bring. 
  • A limited-edition piece of TFNation artwork, signed by Susan Blu. (Artwork TBC) 
  • A professional digital photograph with Susan Blu (To be emailed after the event). 
  • Commemorative souvenir ticket and artwork. 

(The Legend Pass must be purchased with the corresponding convention day ticket)

Transformers Convention News

TFNation have announced their initial schedule for the 3-day August convention in 2023. You can read the full press release below.

SHORT ANNOUNCEMENT

 
- TFNation 2023 tickets will be available for purchase at 12:00 Midday (GMT) on Saturday 3rd December 2022.
- TFNation has secured discount rate rooms at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole Hotel.
- Discount rate bedroom will be available for purchase at 12:00 Midday (GMT) on Saturday 4th March 2023.

FULL ANNOUNCEMENT

Whether you're a returning TFNational, or a first-time convention-goer, we know hotel accommodation is an important part of your TFN planning. This year will be a little different to previous years, so please take a moment to read this post, which we hope will be helpful for you.

 

1. HOW MUCH DO THE ROOMS COST?

The bedroom rates offered to us slightly increase in price each year, to account for things like inflation and hotel running costs. This year the price change will be larger, partly because of price rises we are all facing, and partly to reflect the fact that TFNation's previous hotel rates were all negotiated as far back as 2018/2019. 

With that in mind, the Hilton Birmingham Metropole has offered the following discounted rates to TFNation 2023 ticket holders;

£100.00 per night - Single bedroom (for single occupancy), including breakfast.

£120.00 per night - Double bedroom (for single occupancy), including breakfast.

£150.00 per night - Double or Twin bedroom (for double occupancy), including breakfast.

£170.00 per night - Family bedroom (for two adults and two children), including breakfast.

These rates are higher than those you've paid in the past - there's no sugar coating that, but we hope they will still work for many of you.

In truth, part of the reason why we delayed announcing TFNation 2023 for so long is because we've been working together with the Hilton to put together a package which we think will still work for our attendees in this new post-pandemic era for the hospitality industry. For example, most hotels and events are now moving into a world where breakfasts are paid on top of the room price; for now at least, we're pleased to confirm we've saved your bacon (and, suitably-cherished, meat-free alternatives). We appreciate costs have risen, but compared to public prices, we feel these rates still represent a good deal for TFNationals who want to stay on site.

 (All prices are correct at the time of writing. All prices are quoted inclusive of VAT)

2. WHEN CAN I BOOK MY ROOM?

To give you a little time to plan, and to enjoy your robot-filled holidays, TFNation's discount rate bedrooms will be available for purchase at 12:00 Midday (GMT) on Saturday 4th March 2023. We will make another post closer to the time to let ticket holders know how to book their rooms.

For Traders and Forge Stall Holders (who have paid their invoices) we will email you separately with instructions for booking your bedrooms in due course, as the process is a little different for you.

3. DEPOSIT

You will need to pay a deposit at the time of booking, equivalent to the price of one night in your room (this will then be counted towards the full price you will need to pay, at the hotel). 

The deposit will be non-refundable and non-transferable, so it's important that you only book a room if you are confident you will make the event. 

You will not need to pay for the rest of your stay until you are at the hotel; if you have a credit card, you will not need to pay until check out. If you do not have a credit card, you will need to pay at check in.

4. HOW DOES THE BOOKING SYSTEM WORK?

On Saturday 4th March 2023 we will add a button to your TFNation.com account page, will which allow you to access the new booking portal. We'll also make another post before then, just to remind you.

It's really important that you please check your password first as you will need to log in with the same account you used to buy your TFNation 2023 tickets - if you create a new account instead, the system won't know you've bought tickets, so it won't give you access to the booking portal.

5. A REMINDER ABOUT THURSDAY AND MONDAY ROOMS

Over the years, we know many of you have decided to extend your stay at the hotel, be that to assist with your travel plans or just so you can soak up a little more of the TFN spirit. Naturally, we love this, but it is important to remember that TFNation is a three day event; this means it is fully down to the hotel's discretion as to whether or not the discount rate can be extended to other nights - in turn, that usually comes down to which events are running either side of TFNation.

6. IF I BUY MY TFNATION 2023 TICKET, WILL I BE GUARANTEED A BEDROOM?

Sadly not. You must first buy a ticket to qualify to use the bedroom portal, but once you're in, bedrooms are sold subject to availability.

Each year we remind our attendees that even though the Metropole is the UK's largest events hotel outside of London, there are more than twice as many TFNationals as there are bedrooms. That means even before we factor in other events and members of the public, it is sadly not possible to guarantee everybody a room.

This year in particular, with a first ever UK convention appearance for Susan Blu, we anticipate bedrooms will sell out very quickly, so we encourage you to have your plans ready as early as you can.

7. HOW DOES THE HOTEL BOOKING PORTAL WORK?

The Hilton computer is smart, but it's no Teletraan-1. Think of it like a game of connect four (or, more likely three, for most people). If you want a room for three nights, and ALL three nights are available, then the computer will be happy and you'll get your room. But if ANY one of those three nights is not available, you'll get an error message. 

The trick is to start small. Try one day at a time. By process of elimination, you'll see which day is the culprit! Book the nights you can - remember, you've got until August to fill any gaps and rooms do free up as people change their plans.

8. WILL TFNATION GET ANY MORE ROOMS LATER?

This is unlikely - it has happened, but it's not really something we can bank on as it's dependant on how other events sell. 

What does often happen, however, is people tend to cancel their bookings in the first few weeks (probably when they realise their friend has also booked a room and they can share). So keep checking back, because if somebody drops out, you might get lucky and grab that room! You can keep checking right up until the weekend of the convention.

9. PARKING

Residents parking at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole is £12.00 per night, with an increased day rate for non-residents. Additional parking is also available at the nearby NEC and Resorts World, though we would encourage you to check the rates before you travel.

10. ALTERNATIVES

If you're not lucky enough to grab your preferred room at the Hilton, don't panic! You can still have a fantastic time visiting TFNation! The NEC area has lots of hotels within a short distance of the convention, including the new Hilton Garden Inn on the doorstep of the airport. We'll also have some alternative hotel information on our website. https://tfnation.com/location#alternatives

Pro-tip! Hotels usually reserve some rooms for public sale. So join Hilton Honors as a backup (it's free!).  Just remember to check the terms of any rooms you book, as they may be different to the TFNation deal.

Transformers Convention News

TFNation have announed that their trader tables for TFNation 2023 are now open. You can read the full press release below.

With tickets for TFNation 2023 scheduled to go on sale at 12:00 midday (GMT) on Saturday 3rd December 2022,  the time has now come for us to address some of the most incredible people in our community - the TFNation Forge artists and Traders!

Forge and Trader stall applications will also open at 12:00 midday (GMT) on Saturday 3rd December 2022 - as has been the case in the past, this will be an application process, so you won't have to pay for your tables tomorrow; we will contact you later, if your application is approved, to arrange payment.

As a small business ourselves, we know all too well how difficult recent times have been for our Traders and Forge artists. We've therefore taken the decision to extend our price freeze for another year; we won't be able to do this forever, but we wanted to make an effort to show our support for you.

Trader Pricing

Trader spaces are sold in blocks. One block measures approximately 3.05m x 1.83m (10ft x 6ft) and contains three tables each typically measuring 1.8m x 0.76m (6ft x 2½ ft).

(The final hall layout will be confirmed at a later date).

Additional blocks come at a reduced rate and include three additional tables (per block).

Please note – unfortunately we are unable to guarantee power will be supplied to all of the tables.

  • 6ft by 10 ft (includes 3 tables, 2 Trader tickets*) - £200
  • 12ft by 10ft (includes 6 tables, 2 Trader tickets) - £350

A Forge table may be shared by up to three Forge artists (who must be pre-registered with us), however the additional artists will need to purchase the appropriate convention ticket(s) for the day(s) they wish to share your table.**

**A Forge ticket includes;

- Access to the Saturday Programme.

Transformers Convention News

The TFNation team have issued a new release regarding booking a hotel for their inaugral show which has been in hide demand since registration opened on the 15th Jan

Transmission Initiated
Transmission ID: 000019
TFNation_2016
Operation: Hotel Update #2

As announced last week, our allocation of rooms at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole Hotel have almost sold out. With many more Transformers fans still looking to purchase tickets, here are some hints and tips to help you to find accommodation:

1. RESERVING A TFNATION ROOM AT THE HILTON

At the time of writing, we still have the following room types available on the core convention days;

Friday – Single, Queen Executive and Family.
Saturday – Single
Sunday – Twin Deluxe, Twin Executive, Queen Executive and Family.

We also have rooms left on the days surrounding the convention (Wednesday, Thursday, Monday and Tuesday) which might be particularly helpful for international attendees.

2. FIND A ROOMMATE

We have opened a
thread on our Facebook page for people looking for roommates. If there is a spare bed in your room, please consider assisting a fellow fan.

3. RESERVING A PUBLIC ROOM AT THE HILTON

Like most hotels, the Hilton keeps a certain amount of rooms for public sale. This means you can still get a room at the Hilton, but the price and terms of sale will be different to the special deal negotiated by TFNation.

PLEASE NOTE - The Hilton cannot assign convention rates to public reservations.

There are two main ways to reserve a publically available room:

3.A. HILTON WINTER SALE

Presently the Hilton is holding a WINTER SALE on its
website

These rooms represent a good saving over standard hotel prices, though you may have to pay upfront. Unlike TFNation rooms, breakfast is typically not included. Additional options are available for Hilton Honors members – it is members – full details can be found here http://hhonors3.hilton.com/en/index.html for more information

3.B. RESERVING HILTON ROOMS THROUGH THIRD PARTY WEBSITES
Hilton rooms are available through many public websites. Please read the terms and conditions for booking as some may require upfront payment, and/or may not include breakfast. Examples of booking sites include;

www.Hotels.com
www.Trivago.com
www.Laterooms.com

If you have booked different nights through different sources, then please let the hotel know either before the event, or at check in, as they may be able to combine your bookings into a single stay to save you having to change rooms. This only applies where all your rooms are of the same type (eg: single)

4. OTHER HOTELS NEAR TO THE HILTON

There are many alternative hotels near to the Hilton. We have listed some below, and have separated them into ‘walking distance’ and ‘driving distance’;

Firstly, within walking distance you have -

Budget Price Hotels:
Etap Hotel Birmingham Airport
IBIS Styles Birmingham Airport
The Holiday Inn Express, NEC
The Premier Inn Birmingham NEC
Novotel Birmingham airport

Luxury Price Hotels:
Genting Hotel (Resorts World)
Crown Plaza Birmingham NEC
Arden Birmingham NEC

Secondly, if you have a car, these options may work out well for you -

Travelodge Birmingham International
Holiday Inn: International Airport

5. OTHER HOTELS – FURTHER AFIELD

Closer to the event, we will post a list of hotels which are nearer to Birmingham City Centre.

We hope this update has been useful. Remember, the best part of the convention will be the parts where you are awake with friends – so please don’t get stressed if you cannot stay at the Hilton itself, as we are sure you will still have a fabulous time.

Further transmissions to follow.

Transformers Convention News

TFCon, the worlds largest fan run Transformers convention, based in Canada, have annouced that not only will the event in Toronto happen in July but they will be crossing the board to the USA to have their first US convention in August located in Chicago.

Save the dates! TFcon – The world’s largest fan-run Transformers convention is travelling to America the weekend of October 24th to 26th, 2014. TFcon USA will take place at the Hyatt Regency O’Hare in Chicago to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the Transformers. Discounted hotel block information will be available shortly. Dealer bookings and registration information will also be available in the near future. We hope you can join us for this historic event.

This is a very interesting development, not only is it a potential challenger to BotCon's US domination of the Transformers calendar but what will the knock-on effect be for the Canadian event, which often has Hasbro Canada's involvement.  Will Big Brother Hasbro USA clamp down on this un-licensed show?

Transformers Convention News

The Auto Assembly team have announced that attendees to the convention will be able to receive a 20% discount at the bar during the event with a food discount currently being negotiated.  Below you will find a copy of the announcement

Good News! Food And Drinks At Auto Assembly 2013

Let’s face it, hotel bar prices are always that little bit more expensive than what you’d pay at your local pub. Although be honest, if your local pub was hosting several hundred friends and tens of thousands of pounds worth of robot goodness one weekend, you’d probably expect them to charge a little extra too! As fantastic as the Hilton is being, we will never hide from the fact that prices are very important to our attendees. Which is why we think you will LOVE this news!

Working in conjunction with the Hilton, we have secured a generous discount for our attendees, which will cover all drinks bought in the main Lounge Bar during the convention days of Friday until Sunday. Auto Assembly 2013 attendees will receive not 10, not 15, but a whopping 20% discount on all drinks purchased from the Lounge Bar during these times! That should be a huge help to your Transformers laden pockets! :)

But wait… There’s more…

Remember our Showcase Event on the Saturday evening? You know, that awesome event where we hold the Script Reading, Cosplay Competition and surprise announcements… The one where we have our own PRIVATE bar (which we are christening Swerve’s, for a giggle – musical blasters not supplied). Well guess what, we listened to your concerns and you’re getting 20% drinks discount there too!  No more having to run back to the main bar!

How can we make this happen?

Easy. We listened to your comments from last year and came up with a crazy-complex system. Just show the bar staff your Auto Assembly 2013 pass (which you must be wearing). The bar manager will be provided with a mockup AA pass so the bar staff expect you. That’s it! :)

Wait… Is That… More…?

Just a teaser for now but… You know how quite a few of you were worried about food prices? And you know how we want you all to be able to afford to buy your meals without having to sell your spare energon…? Well watch this space… Exciting plans are being finalised!

So in summary;

  • 20% drinks discount in the Lounge Bar for the duration of the programme days
  • 20% drinks discount in Swerve’s on the Saturday night
  • New food plans… Watch this space…

The Auto Assembly Team

Botcon have revealed their 2nd 2012 exclusive figure as the evil Tracks.  We predicted the figure uses the Transformers Universe Tracks mold but is recoloured red like Road Rage, the E-Hobby exclusive figure. Tracks is from the Shattered Glass universe which is why he is an evil Autobot

Do not be surprised if you find a black version is also released as an additional toy at some stage. You can view the images below.

Transformers Convention News

Fub Publications have sent out the following email notifications to all Botcon attendees as well as Club Members

­To all BotCon attendees who are holding current reservations:  There was a glitch in the hotel's reservation system as it was supposed to be taking one night's deposit when your made your reservation.  

Per our contract with the hotel, they need to take this deposit by charging everyone's credit card for the first night's room and tax.

In order not to impact anyone's Christmas shopping, I have asked them to hold off making the charge until January 3, 2012.  

In addition, this deposit will be refundable until April 9, 2012. If you cancel after April 9, 2012 your deposit will NOT be refunded.  

If you are holding any rooms "in case someone needs them" we ask you to either turn the reservation over to another party, or to release them by January 2, 2012, as we still have other attendees who need to make room reservations.  Again, all rooms being held will have a one night's deposit charged on January 3, 2012.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you.

Thanks for your support,

Brian
