Hey guys,

My apologies for not posting the pics up sooner. I’ve just had to do some of the admin and on top of being exhausted, I had work, but I’m glad everything had come together despite experiencing some “hiccups” along the way.

The draw date is this Saturday, July 4th! I’ll be shooting video to announce the winners sometime in the afternoon. I’ll send out a tweet and Facebook fan page update to notify everyone of the video of the winners posted!

A quick update on what’s been going on as of June 7, 2009. Also a little bonus with a sketch that Udon Studios comic artist and formerly of Dreamwave Productions, who worked on the “Tranformers Energon” comic, Joe Ng!  A bit of a sidenote, Joe Ng graciously donated his talents back in 2008, in designing the Transforming for SickKids “Empowered” logo that you see on the top left corner of each page

Check out Joe sketching a headsketch of a Generation 1 Megatron. Enjoy

I had a lot of fun shooting the video, opening the boxes and showing all of you Transformers fans out there, as well as what the possibilities are for the Hasbro Prize Packages that my team is assembling! It was so much fun even my mum dropped in on the fun!

What I found was a mix of everything, from Generation 1 (for you ‘purists’ out there), Animated Series, and of course toys from the Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Movie. Read the rest of this entry »

Although I’m literally drooling over some of the prizes we have lined up for the Raffle, these prizes will find their way to their rightful owners once the Raffle event at Scotiabank Theatre wraps up…

Team still has a lot of work ahead, but we’ve got plenty more in store!  Stay tuned!

Hey all,

A few people have been wondering and asking what is this “#TFSK09″?

Some questions I’ve had were:

“Is it a new strain of the H1N1 virus?”
” Does it stand for “The Foolish Seek Knowledge?”
“WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU EXCITED FOR WITH THESE UPDATES AND STUFF ON FACEBOOK/TWITTER? WHAT IS IT?!? GIMME MORE INFO DAMMIT!”

Quite simply this is a Transformers Fans’ Dream and a fundraising extravaganza like none other!  TFSK09 stands for (if you hadn’t guessed already , Transforming for SickKids Initiative 2009.  We’ve got some disgustingly awesome prize packages lined up for Transformers and non-Transformers fans, so there’s a little bit of something for everyone with details to be revealed SOON!
