The Americans have ComicCon, and we Canadians have FanExpo, our biggest convention for all things comics, sci-fi, and gaming.

But even better than the images presented, was that the convention had an actual full scale model of the new Light Cycle on display. I don't think my photos can fully do justice to this marvel of vehicle design and architecture when seeing it in person. But here it is;
