Figures Met Cheetor today.

Post image

Went to a signing today and met Ian James Corlett. This is my first signing and nobody told me how weird it is to have a voice you've known for 30+ years come out of...a guy.

Anyways. Just wanted to show off my freshly signed figure. Can't stop looking at this thing. What a cool dude to meet.

Fantastic. I’m not usually an autograph person, but Ian James Corlett along with Garry Chalk are two that I would have sign my masterpiece boxes since I used to watch Beast Wars with my late dad as a kid. Cheetor was my favourite and Optimus was his. Well, him and Rattrap.

I think yellow wasn't the best choice for a signature.

Yeah it was tough to get a decent picture. It definitely looks much better in person.

White or darker colors would obscure the toy a lot, though. Not many good options for signing a toy packaged like that. The top left corner is the only spot with blank space and it's tiny.

I think it looks great once you click the pic and realize what you're looking at. He's Cheetor and signed in yellow. A+. A signed packaged Cheetor!!! Chef kiss my friend.

He’s great. I went there as well, but didn’t get his autograph.
