Here's my favorite video of me and Chris Ayres. I'm cosplaying Frieza, and he's standing behind me to do the talking. :)

That's awesome. Great lip-synching there!

(I also didn't realize you were MissDBZBabe- loved your Saiyan Blood lyric video!)

Oh my goodness, I WISH I were her! She's super talented. Buuuut, she's the one taking the video! I'm just the Frieza IN the video.

Oh. :oops: Well, I like that video anyways.

You know, it's funny, before I moved to College Station, TX (Aggie master race reporting in :P just kidding), I lived in Mineral Wells, which is about 45 minutes' drive west from Fort Worth, and I have never had the pleasure of meeting any of my favorite Funimation VAs (although I have a friend who goes to A-Kon every year, and has Vic Mignogna's autograph). I would love to meet Colleen Clinkenbeard, Kyle Hebert, Chris Sabat, and several others.

Oh sweet! I actually hope to move to Texas for school and to be closer to my boyfriend. The only Texas con I've been to was Oni-con though.

And I love her videos too. :)

I really hope this year's Armageddon Expo will provide us NZ and Aussies some DBZ voice actors.

I've only met Colleen Clinkenbeard who was at the Christchurch Armageddon Expo last year. I didn't get any photos but I got my One Piece Collection 1 and Straw Hat Pirates flag signed as well as a shoutout video to a couple of my friends as Luffy.

I'm still envious of you for meeting her, you lucky bastard! I wanted to go visit the Christchurch Armageddon but didn't have enough funds to do so.

I met a lot of the actors at cons back when the show was still on Toonami. Living in Texas was easy to meet a lot of the FUNi people because it was recorded here. I have a poster with most of the main characters on it all signed by:

Sean Schemmel
Chris Sabat
Eric Johnson (now Eric Vale)
Dameon Clarke
Meredith McCoy
Josh Martin
Cynthia Cranz
Stephanie Nadolny
Laura Bailey
Kyle Hebert
and Mike McFarland

Also have a FMA poster signed by most of that cast as well. Actually got drunk with Colleen Clinkenbeard, Laura Bailey and Vic Micnogna and Greg Ayres at a con about five years back.

My brain was like WOOOOOOOOAAAAAAH! That was cool.

I need to go to more cons, I've met a few VA's but none from Dragonball. :cry:
...Wait what are you doing? Are you still reading this? I finished what I had to say, why don't you move on to the next post?

Dawwww thanks. It was a little odd because I actually started the cosplay long before we were dating, so I almost thought of not going through with it. But people were super nice about it, and we got that hilarious video! I love that he's so tiny you can't see him crouching behind me. :lol:
