Last year I went to Auto Assembly with an Agenda: Trailbreaker, Hoist and as many other G1 reissues as I could get.
This year.... not so sure. I'm up to date with DOTM so the only thing I'd be wanting there is Guzzle. Some mini Autobots and a rummage through the parts boxes might satisfy me.
Is there anything the rest of you are looking to buy?

I'll pick up last years comic i missed last year - but i've already got #12A for 50p so might not pick up the comic expo cover. I'm looking to get the other issues i'm missing.

I don't really have any pre-planned things I want to buy, though if I see Universe Smokescreen or Classics Ramjet then I might have to buy them on sight (if the price is reasonable enough)

As for myself, I'm not planning on buying anything since I have no room/money. Of course I might get drunk and buy something dumb like Omega Sentinal again  |

Looking to sell rather than buy this year. Of course I had the same plan last year and still ended up with rather a lot.

I'm hoping that this year's SDCC exclusives are available at reasonable prices. Also, the Animated and Mighty Muggs that weren't released here. DOTM Human Alliance, perhaps.
I've got a short list of things to look out for, but they're more "would be nice" than "must have".

There is nothing particular I'm after this year, though if I happen to spy a G1 Wheeljack...

Saying all that, does anyone want to buy a reissue Sky Lynx for £30?  |

I'm not too fussed about buying stuff this year (8 cons in, that itch has well and truly been scratched) and so haven't bothered putting as much aside as usual. My main interest in terms of picking stuff up is the fanzine of translated German stories!
Otherwise, I shall plumb the Furminators box of trades and see if any comic art is available at a decent price. Possibly some sketches but that depends if I can get to the queues on time. If not, I already have some nice ones.
I will no doubt pick up a toy or two but I'm not looking for anything in particular and won't be bothered if I come back with nowt in that regard. If the SDCC Starscream is there that would be nice but depends if it's A: affordable in terms of 'chunk of overall budget' and B: Doesn't vanish within 3 picoseconds.

'Tis true! It's official TF media that until recently has been obscure outside of Germany so I am keen to give it some proper attention.

Oh! Just remembered I'm picking up Steamhammer and Dinopope PCC sets from Bogatan so I will have toys even if I buy no other ones.

I look forward to getting the Club Ramjet and Legends Megatron that my good pals have sorted for me. I must remember to take the Activators Grimlock that I bought to have signed by David Kaye. I know exactly where it is, so I won't be playing hunt the thimble like when I was looking for my Garry Chalk photo last year. |

How much are they going to be Matt? They will be a price of Free! The love must be shared! Of course I will not say no if people wish to make a charitable donation via Toy Fu. |

Hmmm. Now that Matt has announced the price on the German TF fanzine my list looks something like this:-
German TF Fanzine (not technically bought due to cover price)
Cybertronian Times (already paid for)
Polaris Special: Jhiaxus
Some Pints
I think that is the list of what I am specifically planning to acquire. I might pick up some other things depending if anything takes my fancy, but I don't feel a burning urge to be buying toys and unless I seem any of the UK trades I am missing then there isn't really anything in that vein I am in need of.

Mainly aiming to get any fanzines and beer and that's about it. If I see really cheap TF videogames I don't have maybe then.

This is the first time that I'm going without too much in mind toywise - DOTM doesn't interest me too much, so I suspect it's going to be a case of seeing whatever takes my fancy. Quite looking forward to that actually, makes a change from having A List, and trying to follow it...
