TerrifiCon 2019 Cosplay Music Video!

I think this is my sixth year going to TerrifiCon? And it's definitely one of my favorite conventions to go to. It's not the hectic madhouse that San Diego & New York Comic Con can be. It's more of an organized chaos atmosphere! Anyway, here are some of the awesome cosplays I saw!



Many thanks to the following cosplayers!

30th Anniversary Of Everything Nerdy Part II


2015 is almost over, and lately all the talk has been about the 30th Anniversary of Back to the Future. Well, that's not the only thing that celebrated its 30th birthday this year. Here's a look at some of the nerdy things that I was totally into 30 years ago that maybe didn't get the fanfare that Back to the Future is getting.

Robotech

Premiered Mar 4, 1985

Much like Voltron the previous year, Robotech was pulled from already existing Japanese animation. Except in this case, it was three completely separate series woven into one 85-episode season. Contrasting the kiddie nature of Transformers, Robotech was a sci-fi space opera that dealt with adult issues like love, war, and death. But who are we kidding. Robotech is popular because of the robots, and one in particular, the Veritech fighter, is still ridiculously popular today. Toys at the time, were unfortunately very scarce. The only thing you could even remotely get was a Transformers Jetfire figure and even that was pretty limited. Thankfully, collectibles are readily available now even on Amazon. And right now, there are these 30th Anniversary 1/100 (6 inches) scale transformable figures available.

Transformers Devastation Is All About Nostalgia


Transformers: Devastation looks to be the badass offspring of the G1 cartoon series and Devil May Cry. Add to that the original voice actors, and you've got a healthy dose of nostalgia mixed in with a lot of hack and slash combo action. Just check out the latest gameplay trailer and you'll see these Autobots know kung fu!

Connecticut ComiCONN


This past weekend, I went to Connecticut ComiCONN with the idea that I was going to cover the event as if I was press. I kind of saw it as a dry run for when I go to New York ComicCon later this year. And in the beginning, I was doing just that. I was taking pictures and thinking about what to write. And then I realized while I was thinking about what I wanted to cover and write about, I was missing exactly what I wanted to experience. So I chucked my original idea because let's face it, I'm not the press. I decided to just experience the day as a fan of all things nerdy and just have fun. So here's a little of what I saw.

I got a chance to meet some of the Connecticut Ghostbusters and check out all their awesome gear.
