Posted: Mon Jun 06, 2011 10:46 am
Did they announce the location of the next Botcon at the end of the conference, like they did last year in Orlando?

Either that, or somewhere centrally located like St. Louis or Kansas City.

Better to inconvenience everyone equally (except Hawaiians of course, but they're a minority.)

kinky
I could probably house a few of you during Botcon if it came to Phoenix. It needs to be announced here first though.

They already did Beast Wars in 2006.

But not ANIMATED Beast Wars.

IMHO,I don't think Hasbro would allow fun pub & the botcon crew to celebrate the Diaclone/microchange theme at botcon's convention. because hasbro never sold these diaclone characters/color schemes around the world.
IMHO,I don't think hasbro would want fun pub/botcon crew to celebrate brave nor the 1980's gobot characters/colors. as hasbro never sold this stuff in america during the 1980's & 1990's.

Diakron and Kronoform were direct US releases of Diaclone toys, sold by Takara. The releases included a black Ironhide and a red Sunstreaker.IMHO,I don't think Hasbro would allow fun pub & the botcon crew to celebrate the Diaclone/microchange theme at botcon's convention. because hasbro never sold these diaclone characters/color schemes around the world.
See my above answer. True, they were US-only, but Hasbro has close ties with TakaraTomy.IMHO,I don't think hasbro would want fun pub/botcon crew to celebrate brave nor the 1980's gobot characters/colors. as hasbro never sold this stuff in america during the 1980's & 1990's.
Then explain BotCon Bug Bite, Movie Fracture, and RotF Deadlift to me. It's perfectly legal, since Hasbro acquired Tonka and with it, the Gobot franchise, but not the molds.
Also, Hasbro can use Takara characters for their releases. Case in point: Sunstorm.
