Just completed a collecting quest that started in 1999. At a tiny convention, I picked up Swoop, the 5th and final G1 Dinobot I needed.

Ray Tracer
Contrary to the profile above, the Web Riders never appear in Mainframe; Ray arrives alone. Ray tracing is a rendering technique for simulating realistic light effects. "Surfr" is a reference to Motorola's Surfr series of modems (although, of course, the written spelling does not come up in the show itself, nor is it in the closed captions, and seems to be more of a non-canon running joke). The man has no ears, and we've never actually seen him without his goggles. Discuss.

@TSindelar I don't know about me, but my therapist would be in a bigger house.
Leaving the con today, I was next to a Jack Sparrow cosplayer doing "The Run" down the stairs and I did the only reasonable thing; blasted "He's a Pirate" from my phone as I went down the escalator next to him.
My three year old was just pretending to have the Rescue Bots fight Spidey's villains and I'm over here going "Aww, his first crossover!"
