There's been an update on the customizing class.

Apparently you'll get 2 Scrapmetal toys and 2 different heads to repaint.

Kinda wish I signed up for it now.

Aw those punks. one of entries is gonna be a rumble made out of that guy. Not the Coby head but still.

I wonder how many people in the class are actually going to make both figures? While it'd be nice to have extra customizing class con exclusives, I've noticed a few people on the official boards are more interested in keeping their parts sprued. Shawn is even telling people they don't have to make both figures if they choose to keep half the sprue unused. This could end up making a completed Rumble and Inferno set the rarest Botcon exclusives ever!

I'm sure they'll be popping up on eBay after the Con.

I bet they won't! Brian wrote this over at the club boards back on May 16th:

We don't want to drive people crazy that figures like this exist or we might not ever be able to do the class again. If a ruckus gets raised, Hasbro might not provide us these special items in the future.

So just put them in your personal collection case. This is not designed to fund your trip.

If any do get sold online and Hasbro discontinues this aspect of the convention, I'd bet that ebay seller would become the most hated person in the fandom.

yeah they will.you usually have very unscrupulous sellers on ebay.they don't care about the fandom;they just want a nice tidy profit

That's pretty messed up. I'd still guess that if anything gets auctioned it'll probably be the sprues instead of the completed figures. The untouched parts on sprues are way more sexy exciting to most people. And if that happens I guarentee Hasbro will shut the customizing class down.

the almighty dollar is what makes the world go round

Hasbro had already stated they would if the sprues showed up. To easy for the knock off companies to copy there stuff or something like that. I forgot to renew my membership so i can't check where on the boards that statement is.

i am not disputing hasbro.i just understand human greed as much as the next person.mark my words there will be someone who doesn't give a flying flip what hasbro thinks and sell the sprues
