DrLockdown Ruins TFNation 2023 (By Attending)

Welp, TFNation had a good run, but by me being in the same vicinity, I've somehow ruined it by proxy. Sorry about that. Just part of being "The Worst Transformers KZbinr".

Was a pleasure getting to chat with you throughout the weekend and glad you got so much out of our panel! The best part of the convention is definitely meeting people and making new friends

[@DrLockdown]

Truly it was.

[@sebgaming4667]

If TF Nation ever came to America I'd go in a heart beat. Speaking of which, do you have plans on coming to Orlando for TFCon?

[@DrLockdown]

Nope. America is even more expensive to fly to. I can't afford any cons until probably 2025

[@sammakestoys9223]

Cheeky little cameo from my horribly unkempt mop of hair, love to see it

[@jinxedreviews]

It was lovely meeting you mate. One of my con highlights was having dinner with you on Friday. And yeah, London is horrendous. As a Northerner, it’s far cheaper and therefore better here

[@falcondave9755]

It was great seeing you there. I was the person who had the takara legends blurr at the restaurant.

[@DrLockdown]

Ohhhh yeah!

[@Cdr2002]

For Legacy Stalker, I think the smartest thing Hasbro could do is a design a figure that could function as both Stalker and Cybertron Defende Red Alert. Both molds function very similarly and give them a plethora of repaints to do

[@Cdr2002]

7:36 I REALLY like this Cyberverse prime repaint, easily my favorite version of that mold. Great weapons, dope implementation of the G1 color scheme

[@A.MNeverP.M]

Couldn't attend this year due to a conflicting schedule, managed to get a few Bots and Cons inlcuding Legacy Armada Prime (your video hyped me up so much I bought it as soon as i could)! So despite not being able to attend, I could still enjoy the lovely vibes by watching vlogs like this and buying robos whilst on holiday :)

[@mattymcmacca]

Man, fantastic work despite Manflu and food poisoning XD

[@aladdinsane5925]

Sorry to hear you got the con flu. Again was a genuine pleasure to say hi, plus I got to briefly gush how you got me back into collecting proper lol.

[@Cdr2002]

Now that you mention it I would love a new Buzzsaw cassette, though the MP KO I have works fine

[@RodimusMinor1987]

It was nice to meet you, I could tell that you weren't well, but thanks for the chat and the photo with you.

[@JLWorkshops]

It’s funny seeing footage of the TFN attendees - seeing friends, general fans & notable personalities, it’s like everybody gets a cameo 😜 Also, spotted myself at 2:52 - I Got A Cameo In a DrLockdown Video!! (Is this a stupid comment? Oh Ya. Am I going to hold my head high? HELL YA!!)

[@tomhur1]

Glad you had a great time at the Con Dr Lockdown. I hope one day I get to go to a dedicated Transformers Convention.

[@MCS_Mr.Malice]

Seeing kids at tfnation makes my heart sing, I always love seeing how kids still like this stuff.

Metal spoon incident: Standard for Birmingham.

[@Jazzer995]

Core Swoop - Luckily Popcultcha will come through for any fellow Australians who want him. Legacy Stalker - I want him as well, was willing to suffer the Doubledealer to have him. I want Boss as well; but fear he might be another Countach. RID Strongarm - Pity I didn't know you wanted one, because I'll be getting rid of mine when Legacy is released. Legacy Alternators - I would like a Jaguar Ravage, maybe even Mustang Hot Rod (and another Mazda Meister). RID Skorponok - I wanted that Bludgeon but could never find him.

[@DrLockdown]

I don't want a Strongarm. I have mine from way back when RID was airing. Quartz wanted one.

[@Jazzer995]

@@DrLockdown - Fair enough, must have miss heard you.

[@boulder5540]

God, I haven't been to a tf convention since one of the Botcons in the early 2010's, seeing all these TFN vlogs is giving me the itch. And oh London...First time I went to London last year, I remember going to this nice hotel for a course meal only for the food to be way too sweet and for the staff to shill NFTs to us in between the courses. I don't know if it's the worst restaurant experience I've ever had, but it's certainly up there.

[@whateverwhatever8094]

Don’t you dare come to 2024. If you do I’m gonna hit the griddy.

[@Cdr2002]

10:26 I would love legacy takes on the alternators designs, especially as companions to Volvo Prime. I feel like JP12 is the perfect template for an updated Alternators Hound/Swindle/Rollbar

[@mrsamaritan6881]

We haven't "dodged" anything. Hasbro could STILL totally make a Stalker out of a retooled Doubledealer. In fact it's pretty likely because if they keep the cassette chest gimick, he'd make a perfect repaint into Machine Wars Soundwave.

[@DrLockdown]

Please don't scare me like that

[@jjohnson2445]

​@@DrLockdown please collab with foxitron prime

[@DrLockdown]

You've asked me this several times already. Please stop. I don't know them.

[@roonis418]

glad you had fun. looking forward to your next legends review.

[@Nemesis_Slime]

Yo nice Kabaneri reference!

[@ironhorsehistorian9871]

Glad you had a good time Doc in spite of being sick. Any advice for a first time attendee of a transformers convention?

[@DrLockdown]

Put reminders on your phone, and get a covid booster shot beforehand

[@ironhorsehistorian9871]

@@DrLockdown already done so and I have the ticket saved to my email address. Bought airfare and everything’s set up, now I just need to wait.

[@hotrodney964]

Good to finally meet you good sir, hopefully you can get to come again in the future. But avoid london it’s an awful place! 😂 up north is where it’s at!

[@DrLockdown]

Probably will try to fly into Birmingham directly next time :P

[@blud890]

I also want to buy all the things

[@SuperMookles]

Next time you come to London let us know. You literally went to the most touristy and expensive part of the city!

[@DrLockdown]

Yeah didn't have the cash to go any further than that sadly. Ah well

[@SuperMookles]

@@DrLockdown sorry I missed you at TFNation - hope you manage to make it next year!

[@DrLockdown]

Sadly no. Too expensive. Maybe 2025

[@WhiteKnightFlameZero]

I keep saying to myself that I would go to TFnation....and I keep not doing that, next year without a doubt Im going

[@harpybeagle4931]

5:45 Finally got the WFC Sideswipe mold via Gen Select Deep Cover and it’s rlly good…which I hate bc I think the Countach is an ugly as fuck car lol I held off on getting any of the WFC Sideswipe mold cause I didn’t want to keep looking at it but that transformation and robot mode- yea that’s nice. It’s just such a shame that it’s got the ugliest supercar ever made(tied with the Cadillac) with as it’s alt mode cause the decals r cool as shit too

[@Cdr2002]

I always found universe Galvatron overhated to, it’s an interesting figure

[@randomguywholikesstuff6536]

I wish there was at least one tf convention here in Texas.

[@DrLockdown]

Least you guys have them in your country. Australia has nothing

[@happiaxxident]

Awesome adventure! Thanks!

[@Tazer_Silverscar]

Burning Ham X'D Haven't heard that one before XD Yeeeah, London is way overrated. Manchester is better from a cultural standing, although it might have made your con crud a bit worse (because it's further north, and thus typically colder). Wait, TigerTiger still exists? I thought it went under ages ago (there used to be one up here in Leeds - only ever went in for karaoke). See you at TFNation 12,023 XD

[@jenniferhenquinet3247]

You should do another legion marathon

[@DrLockdown]

It will return. Just wasn't last year because I was moving house

[@Silvercubestudios]

Ahhhhh...hope we could have an event like tfnation here in Dominican Repúblic

[@DrLockdown]

Yeah would be nice to have one in Australia too

[@Silvercubestudios]

@@DrLockdown yeah. Like if there was an aussie TF convention, maybe it would be called "TF con Australia" or something more creative.
