Events

With its increasing popularity, there are more and more events centered around promoting Transformers. This section focuses on those events such as Botcon and Toy Fair. Some events are more geared towards scifi and comic books instead of Transformers. Recurring events are listed alphabetically.  BWTF has attended many events over the years.  Any missing reports will be restored over time following BWTF's 2020 site relaunch.
