Like i said at Mac Aus Con 09' when gundam was brought into discussion "F*** Gundams!"

nice! 1/10 scale is a good size! And for sure he'll look good with the Beagle Ride Armour, total BONUS.

Good words from the Pete man! Exactly right, there was the option of a cinema around chermside, but not only was it too expensive, but it was also too far out of our way. 09's location was perfect. Just wish we had more time, it went too fast, but that won't happen next year, no cinema!

You need another reason to come to Brisbane other than Mac Aus Con??? Crazy perthy! We need to think about whats goin on before the weekends, when the con will be on, coz no way in hell a Supernova or something similar will take place of a Mac Aus Con, unless they invite us to hold a stand there and that won't happen, it seems they ask quite alot, plus they got nothing on what we can put together, they should invite us for free to draw people in! Weekends should be reserved for Mac Aus Con, and anything on the friday or leading towards the weekend will be a bonus.

Beautiful pic of the 19 m0n5t3r. That's sexy. i was about to go off anti gundam but the 11 has already stabbed him lol

love this pic Doodler7!

x 2. Been wanting this for a while as well. Clear plastic though!

BlAdE!! Now that i know you got MAF on PSP, you'll be playing against me head to head for next years title Mac Aus Con's ACE Tourney! Too bad no one had it for this years con. Such an awesome game!

BlAdE mate, so you DO have MAF PSP, so that means you and I shall go head to head at Mac Aus Con 10'! You'll love the prizes mate. There wasn't the MAF tourney this year coz i was the only one with a PSP and MAF, so now you have to train extra hard.

Thanks for that EXO man.

What is the date set by Yamato for release of this baby?? I might even place the convention around it's release for next year, be a smart move i reckon.

Nice new pics Dana thankyou again!

Great job mate, awesome work!!

Wow a free con, that must be awesome to be able to say that. Good job Kirik!

Thanks Jas' man! It was a good con, but i know we can do better. And totally want to see what MWorld Con 09' has in store for us!

Heyy thanks heaps for pinning us Exo & mods! We really appreciate that!

lol i'm not really worried, just having fun. I don't want it behind ropes, people need to be up close an personal. Appreciate violent works of art. Guys i think to stop the clutterring of a Mac Aus Con discussion threads we'll keep this thread for you guys only, and i'll reply when something i brought up, but for my own thoughts i'll just keep it at my twitter Mac Aus Con page i've noted above 1st post. Easier for you guys. Some people only visit the forum sparotically, and although they should read up all whats been written and discussed they honestly couldn't be stuffed, so i'll help them out by keeping this thread input down, and just keep it for you members kkkkkk?

I got my CF-1A with DYRL? FP's a month back, and really want to post pics soon, i love the 1/100's, great cheap little collectables, and good poseability.

Eventually we would like to alternate cities, this includes Melbourne and Perth, and i'd buy atleast one IKEA or similar and just keep it there and pick it up when i needed it, instead of sending it down by post, which wouldn't happen lol But yeah, would love to have a professional looking glass cabinet for every con. I've got dreams of '2' cons a year < Summer & Winter Mac Aus Cons >, an was set to announce it this year, but i've got something cooler in mind, plus we need to grow the support so two cons will be easy to manage.

ah you'll be ok mate, take a breather and we'll see you back soon mate!

And bouncers! Yeah, behind glass for sure, lockable glass displays should be bought by the displayers themselves, to share around costs and for the future displays each year. I wanted to get a IKEA case, lock an all, not cheap, but beautiful. There was talk of hiring, waste of money imo when we should buy a case each as an investment for our own displays. if you check out the pics of con 09' you will see how it stretched from one end of the corridor to the other. I want double the display.

Hmm sounds promising tho mate! screws should be easy enough to pad.

redtapelol yeah! hm we were thinking about making it an exhibition with public walk in, but that needs some thought, thanks mate something i haven't considered. 09' con was unable to have walk in (even though we had a few guys pop in un-announced lol) because of the overhead and ticket costs reserved for those who supported. But it's been my intention from the start to make sure mac aus con brings in new fans! Should be the sole purpose that.

Sweet as, i'm glad your coming this time round mate! it's going to be a hell of alot better than 09's i can assure everyone of that. What i meant by "art exhibition" is that we need to treat our displays as such, i'm talking a large room, professionally decorated and arranged with entrees dotted all around the floor on what i call "display trunks" (probably a better term for it lol) but they jot up from the floor up to shoulder level or just below and the items dsplayed proudly and easy view for everyone. This is what i want, and i'm gonna get it done for us. The aim of Mac Aus Con is to keep up with our Japan Conventions and quality. I want us to be noticed and placed on the map every year. We don't need to aim low, lets aim for the sky! And Vepariga kick ass, be awesome to see artists of all forms, if you can paint there will be a competition provided and prizes! With HLJ.com and Overdrive powerhouse sponsors all this can be made possible, inclduing our fast growing local sponsors Mecha Studio Australia and many others. Kirin Hobby has been there from the start, Ed contributed enormously, our first Mac Aus Con sponsor!

Thanks BlAdE mate again for your help! It was held at the Regent Theartrette (break off Birch Carrol & Coyle Cinemas) so that was all covered. The problem with attendence was the massive overhead hanging over us, cinema hire isn't cheap, needing to hire the entire full seat count. Max seats was 22, we only got uhh... 10 i think with Steve and his missus turing up later in the day to watch Plus. We shouldn't take this years numbers into account, we had almost around 40 interested in coming, and sadly only several able to afford the first con. In the end i feel it was a huge success, the way we juggled cinema and dispays worked well. So with your response this gives everyone options to discuss and which is important to maximize Mac Aus Con's potential. The favoured idea was a hotel location, where we hire the hotel convention room, and get cheap deals for those interstates including me and numerous others. We will want a 2 day event i believe, one day just goes WAY too fast LOL. I was like... is that it? dammn that went fast! Wasn't enough of a good thing imo, but thats the problem with the cinema side of things.
