We have in fact tried to organise a Finnish meeting in Oulu in late July, but the problem has been that pretty much no one living outside Oulu has the time to go there. But I think the Ouluans should be there to meet you at least. Ask Protek, Vmv-81, Nightbreaker and Crawatt (if he is still around any more).

Fantastic! I still have the Sunday and Monday free from work, so at the moment I'm free to hook up. I'm going to the cinema to watch the ''Dark Knight'' on Sunday at 17.45 PM (Finnish time), so anytime before that works fine to me, and why not also after that (runtime for the film is 2h 35min). On Monday I have no special plans.

OK! Just Inform me exactly when and where do you want to meet up (perhaps by PM or email), and let's get together! Other Ouluans should have seen this thread already, so they'll probably inform for themselves if they'll make it or not.

I'd love to meet ya but I'm still at work at 15:00 and the evening looks pretty packed too. I've just finished having my vacation and my sister is coming to town later this week, so I will be pretty busy cleaning up our home and getting groceries.

Well, we did meet up, eventually...;) , it was really nice to meet Landale and her sister. Too bad that nobody else from us Ouluans couldn't make it, but then again, I got to enjoy the company of the ''sisters'' all by myself biggrin.gif ! We had a cup of coffee (or actually glasses...) and then just walked around and looked at Oulu's marketplace and pedestrian street ''Rotuaari''. Girls were anctious to see some Animated stuff, since apparently Sweden still hasn't got any that stuff on sale. We figured out that this is simply due to the fact that TF: Animated is going to be aired in Finland on MTV3, and Hasbro Nordic want's to get the line on sale ASAP. TV advertisement campaign will probably start just before christmas. It also seemed, that all of the Animated toys that are being sold here, are sold by the domestic K-group (K-ryhmä) and specially on the Citymarket -department stores. But this will eventually change, of course.

All in all, it was a nice day at the city, and hopefully I and the other Ouluans get to see Landale and her sister many more times to come in the future. I really would like to... Oh, and by the way, they are staying at Oulu untill the end of this week (week 31), so they said to say that they are still up to seeing the others as well. And why not me too, again.

Well, well...We met again with Landale and her sister at Oulu today (Friday 1st of August) at 13.00 in Subway/Oulu/Torikatu and had subs (obviously...). We talked some general things about how their holiday trip has been going on and of course about Transformers. After that we went to look at some shops (clothes, bags and bling bling - makes sense when you're out with women tongue.gif ) and also some CDs as well as some drawing stuff. I actually bought a pencil set and a sketch book to start to do some drawing with them. I have been thinking about to start practising some pencil drawing and it was a perfect thing that I had a professional who helped me to select the right stuff, as Landale pointed out herself.

We also hooked up with vmv-81 with whom I had secured a TF deal. I sold my Commemorative Series: Autobot Tracks to him. We met at Hemingway's/Oulu/Rotuaari and talked about anime and manga and also about Transformers (big surprise...). After that it was time to say goodbye to each other and to end this ''unofficial TF-meet''.

Again, it was a nice but a bit cold day at town, but the company of with whom it was spended made it seem much warmer.

Was great meeting you guys, and I belive Nightbreaker covered most of the parts 8D~
I did end up buying 2 Tfs, An Animated Starscream at City Market, and a Armada Starscream at some 2nd hand hall place store thing.
Too bad the weather in Oulu was so strange, really cold at the end of our trip.

And it was funny how we randomly ran into eachother Protek =) Since it was just us thinking "Hay if we're going towards Rakksila we might aswell take this road instead of the crowded ones"!

Was very nice meeting you all =)! And thankfully we didn't have to use our finnish, haha.
