Am I the only one who is really depressed about not being at MM?

[Spyweb007]

I was hoping to go this year, but things didn't work out. Hopefully next year I can make it.

I could have gone if I really wanted to. I wasn't aware there was going to be so many customizable parts because, honestly, this is kept really, really vague until the aftermath. In some of the photo uploads, it's apparent a lot of stuff has been mass produced that are not available/aware to the general population. Even when you look at the past MM stuff on the official page, it looks more like a swap meet than custom resource.

On one hand, I get it - trademark infringement, cease-n-desist, etc... - but on the other, I dunno.

I want to go, but Len intimated he'd beat me up if I showed because Bill spent a whole day antagonizing him and it was ascribed to me. I've lived in fear ever since.

[HardyGirl]

I'm not really sad, b/c I can't go. But I do wish our West Coasters could all get together someday.

[LonnieFisher]

I'd love to see a West Coast style meet.

[Mikey]

I'm surprise after 10 years of talking about it nobody ever put their foot down and made a West Coast Megomeet happen by now.

[LonnieFisher]

Let's do it! West Coast Mego Meet. I'd love to have one out here. And not in southern California. Too much happens down there already. Same with Seattle. Portland would be perfect. Oregon would be the cheapest to have it in on this coastline. No sales tax. And there's an airport in Portland. Oregon gets NO good conventions for comics or toys or sci-fi or horror. Nothing. So here would be great. Seriously!

[kennermike]

Sure would like to see it happen on the West coast. Plenty of places to have it.

yeah going all the way to West Verginia from our neck of the woods would be kinda crazy.the Pacific Northwest and Northern California members should start their own Meet plus im not an East Coast kinda guy

I agree Lonnie Portland would be good no sales tax!

[SeattleEd]

Yes, I can make it happen with enough interest in Seattle but Portland makes sense because of the not tax deal and I can arrange to have something together since we frequent Portland a lot and my domestic partner's parent live down and her family has connections there for a place.
Again, only can happen if enough interest.
My friend mentioned where he owns a condo they have small hall he can utilize and is willing to rent it out for a couple of days. It's over on the eastside of Seattle. Kirkland.

[HardyGirl]

Sounds like you're a man w/ a plan, Lonnie. I nominate YOU to start the ball rolling for us West Coasters next year!

either you Ed or Lonnie should get the ball rolling on this you especially nominate you Ed since you seem to have the space connections already in Kirkland Wa

[Mikey]

Bare in mind .... This has been started dozens of times and dropped every time.

If you guys are going to do this for real you need to stick with it until it happens.

[BlackKnight]

wow ..., I can Drive to both Kirkland and Portland ..., even Seattle.

[HardyGirl]

Maybe Ed and Lonnie can work together, hmmm?
