    Mike! Thank you so much for the kind words brother. And thanks a million for your efforts to help me with my MEGO MEET character figures. I cannot adequately express my gratitude to you for lending your awesome talents to my enterprise.

    And i dont want you or any of my other awesome friendsl from the MEGO community to worry: although my absense from this year's meet is a terrible terrible disappointment, I will be back there next year with an even bigger and better display than ever!

    Oh believe me I'm very well aware of that! The display that I am going to bring next year will DWARF even the one I had planned for this weekend. I will ship it on ahead (affordably) several days before the meet so that a repeat of what happened yesterday does not occur!

    Man, sounds like you were having one of MY days, Roberto. My last trip to the airport turned into a huge fiasco, as well. I'm sure the folks attending will post enough photos and videos to allow you to be at the show vicariously if no other way. And remember---there's always MM 2017!

    I just got word. So disappointed for you and everyone here - myself included - who were looking forward to seeing you.

    DITTO!

    Its sentiments like THIS that make my absense from the meet this year so very, very painful to me. You guys have become my family.... Encouraging, supporting, and cheering me on throughout the year as I work to complete my project.

    RA, buddy, thank you so very much for those kind words. Unfortunately, i have already cancelled my flights and hotel reservations. Re-booking now would be beyond my meager finances (especially after what ive already spent developing my display, and failed attemps at transporting it... More than $300 spent yesterday alone transporting myself and my displays in a large van to, around, and from the airport.)

    You know it's ironic: for some reason i developed ALL of the printed materials for my 9Art line (custom action figure boxes, certificates of authenticity, file cards, etc)... ALL of it with copyright info dated 2017.

    I guess 2016 was just not meant to be.

    We're talking about having some kind of Mego gathering in New York at the end of July when Cjefferys and I will be in town, perhaps we can figure out if that's a chance for you to show off all your hard work to a small group of us.

    I would DEFINITELY be up for that!! PLEASE keep me posted!

    Im so damned depressed today, i feel like leapin' off a damned bridge...

    Sorry, it didn't work out. This year will be my last driving anyway, between having a tire blow out and constant lane closures between Ohio and Chicago today's 6 and a half hour leg took 12 hours. So you didn't miss out not getting a ride in that respect and in my case your stuff may have been damaged.

    Now I don't feel so bad that I'm missing it this year. I'm hoping to make it next year. Your day sounds like it really sucked!!

    This Batmobile is going to be fantastic in 15 years when we finally see it! One of these days.

    Sorry to hear of your bad luck. Sounds like it wasn't meant to be.
