Transform and Roll Out!...west; out west to Pasadena California for BotCon 2011.

This week's episode of the Twincast has your host Counterpunch and his pals Tigertracks24, Razorclaw0000, and Robofreak covering the past week's breaking toy news as well as discussions on BotCon 2011.

We also manage to cram in a bunch of bragging rights and shout-outs...if you're into that kind of thing.

Couple of things for everyone to know:

1. Skype was not giving anyone great call reception the night we recorded. So...sorry about that. (It's not bad or anything, just a little more break up than normal)

2. We had not gotten the correct updates about the show exclusive numbers when we were recording.

3. Alternity Backstop requires his own page on the TF Wiki. If only someone would make this happen and defend it with their LIFE...

"And I usually like big bricks of plastic" - LOL

Buying Kingbolt now.

Kthnxbai.

Good, solid, opinionated episode.

Stop falling sleep robofreak.

All this talk about customization on the Arcee mold made me start my work on my Animated Chromia, Moonracer and Nightbird

Do shattered glass fans really have a choice with this Galvatron? It's the only figure he's ever going to get.

Poor Mike, only guy who buys figmas and get's ridiculed.

"Stop falling sleep robofreak.

Hey, I have a reason for that. (A couple actually)

1. I'm easily distracted by shiny objects.

2. I had sound problems on my end so I was on mute a lot. CP helped me out by giving a call out so I could unmute and speak up. It was either that or ruin the recording with the sound of an AC unit blowing the entire time.

Sorry about my audio problems, too.

Also, buying King Bolt right out from under Paul was the high point of my week. Sorry man!

That puts me at 7 of 15. Mike's ahead of me on DVD Microns by a few (4?).

So there's 15 of the things? I have none of them.

It wasn't too much of a loss for me though as I haven't really begun my Minicon collection apart from the US stuff. There are some other figures that I need to get first.

However yes, it was awesome cause I was close to buying it.

Yes, the first three figures came out attached to Micron Legend Volume 1. Each subsequent volume (2-13) had a single figure attached.

Sounds right.

I've named them: Heartache, Tumor, Gregory, and JerryCurl.

Heartache has to be the last Sonic Attack Jet (you need Twirl, right?).

Kind of surprised you guys did an episode just when Botcon was starting, it makes the episode seem already out-of-date coming right after the con ended.
