Ok when I heard the box set would be themed with animated molds I groaned a bit. I was never an animated collector though I liked the show I didn't like the cartoony figures (Lugnut) this will be my first botcon and I wanted to go into it with a box of classic molds. However the paint and the mustache alone just changed my whole opinion on this box. Looking forward to the other molds now!!!!!

"Hound (Swindle mold)"
Uh-oh, if they did that I'd have to get it.
I'm totally a cherry picker. I'm not much or sets, but I do like how dead end looks, though I doubt I'll like the whole set.

I'm not into Animated, as I never saw the cartoon (hadn't quite gotten back into Transformers back then) and I didn't like the design style, so I won't be getting the set this year.
Still, I think it's a really cool idea to do a full team as the box set like this.

T-Macksimus wrote:"Give Me Fuel, Give Me Fire, Give Me That Which I Desire" Hell YEAH!!! Any set that uses Metallica song lyrics for a motto, I'm all for it! When it was just that first pic I was looking at I was thinking "Meh...might not suck" but to scroll down and see the whole thing and read that motto...they most certainly have my attention. The concept excites me and the drawings look great so I'm really hoping they can pull off the final execution of this and have the actual figures combine well and not look horribly out of proportion. I'm more excited about this set than any of the DotM toys even though I won't have a chance of ever laying my hands on this thing.
Isn't that just fan-made artwork???

Oh, now THIS I can get behind. And, if I somehow can't scare up the dough to just buy the Iacon package, hopefully the number of people who just hate this idea will translate into affordable e-bay prices down the road...
At least, I'll keep telling myself that.

OMG....now to be completely honest this all depends on who they use as Motormaster(not getting it if they use wreckgar probably) but if it's prime or (fingers crossed) Magnus, then I will find a way to own this set even though Im not going to botcon.

Yup, I totally called that today at work.
I'm thinking Wreck-Gar or E-Ironhide for Motormaster
E-Prowl for Dragstrip
E-Downshift for Wildrider
C-Override for Deadend
A-Sideswipe for Breakdown
Other exclusives mayhaps:
C-Hardtop for Beachcomber
C-Shortround for Seaspray
TFA Swindle for Brawn
C-Unicron for Bludgeon
E-Inferno for Hotspot
TFA Prowl for Groove
TFA BB for Streetwise
U-Ironhide for First Aid
and just throwing this out there...

I'm pretty sure the Stunticons are all going to be animated molds.

Im thinking about going now. Although I collect very few animated figures, this is going to be a homage worth getting if they all look cool.
