I'm sure no one inside of this fandom needs to hear again how amazing Botcon 2009 was (especially the people who didn't get to go). Instead, I'll let you see for yourself with some good old fashioned sneaky videos and pictures.

There were lots of cosplayers there. OTP? Bumblebee and Chickwave?
Or Bumblebee and Tinlock?
Sideswipe also wanted to put in. Unfortunately, he left Sunstreaker at home. We all know the fangirls only take two.
This is the most amazing puppet that I've ever wanted to chase children with.
Shinobi Prime has more than just a matrix in there.
Surprise Buttsex is imminent.
Arcee brings all the bots to the yard.
amidoh wasn't the first one to realize that Perceptor is everyone's bitch. Here's something to remember that very first moment all over again.
The cosplayers were fun. But we all know that the guests and panels are where the real fun was at. For anyone who ever thought that the adoration of Peter Cullen was over blown. Just look at this face. He is your grandpa. He is your great uncle. He can hug you and tell you to roll out. Just look at that writin and concentrating face.
Prime seems so much less adorable by comparison.
McConnohie loves his Tracks. And is Tracks. If anyone writes it, I'll hate you for the rest of my life.
I was also a rebel and a brat and had a camera with me inside of the panels, so I managed to snag a few of those golden voice acting moments. Albeit with bad sound. I don't know why they won't let you record these guys. I would pay for a DVD of nothing but voice actor skits. It's amazing.

Adorable Voice Actors do adorable things. I keep thinking I should make some subtitles for this thing. Someone asked them to skit a conversation between Skyfire and Cosmos. Lulz ensued. Too bad my sekeret camera was a little too secret about the sound.

I'll upload more. Later. My arms can only take so much of this, and I have 5 gigs of nothing but Botcon.
Stan Lee wants more, but is afraid to ask for it.
