Was wondering the same. Wanted to see some of the newer ones that we could expect.

I wish Hasbro would use the official conventions to actually do some big announcements. I mean, Generation Voyagers sound great, and I will have Soundwave. MP-10 being released in the states is another surprise, but everything else, just scraps from Toyfair.

I'm not sure why Seibertron didn't cover them, but they were there. Pictures from The Allspark.

Not many people get excited over botshots. Though seeing these pictures has made me really anxious, there's many more I want to get. I need them now! I'm just like....not able to fulfill my need. Hasbro knows what's up, they're giving us blue brawls.

I know a lot of people excited for Bot Shots. They don't stay on my Walmart's shelves very long either.

How can I be the only one who's noticed the gorgeous Insecticon? He's my favourite of the FOC toys so far. But besides that I'm looking forward to everything except the FOC Prime. He just looks too blocky and his gun looks awkward displayed the way it is pictured. Minor Nitpicks of mine are that Jazz's gun looks a bit tiny for him and that Dreadwing has yet another MechTech block when all he needed was the yellow part that it's attached to.

If they had to leave out a mode for Airachnid, it should've been the chopper. It doesn't even look good in the show. Spider mode >>>>>>>>>> chopper.

Interesting that Dead End appears to actually have a faction symbol, unlike most of the line's deluxe figs. But wow, looks like he fell in a vat of toxic neon.

I'd hardly call it a Spider mode. she folds her legs up, and walks on her rotors. I wouldn't pay for a transformer that's only steps to transformation are unpeg the legs.

It would appear Seibertron has decieved us...the alt mode shown for Kickback thus far seems to be some sort of in-between, possibly vehicle mode. On a convention Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set ... 631&type=3) it shows the insect mode as well as whatever configuration shown here.
That being said, Kickback is looking really good to me. Something about insects, man.
Soundwave looks great too, but I'll wait to see Soundblaster, I think. And does anyone know what that chair-looking thing on his alt mode is? At first I thought it might be some sort of launching mechanism for the disks in his chest, but then I figured no.

I had assumed it was a seat for Frenzy/Rumble, they look about the right size for it. That said, I have NO idea why it was included to begin with. xD I suspect it'll be e a gimmick of some sort at least.

Not many people get excited over botshots.

Actually I'm one of those people as well. I couldn't care less about Bot Shots. But Seibertron's been giving them roughly equal coverage with everything else, which is why I thought it was odd.
