I like it.

After all, it's just a buncha toys.

Overuse of icons! Woohoo.

But FunPub is notorious for making "promises" and then backpedaling... I wouldn't be bothered if this happened once in a blue moon, but it's very consistant. And for a company that has been putting on TWO conventions for over a decade, this is ridiculous... if you said you're going to do a weekly reveal, do a weekly reveal. If you can't commit to that then do surprise reveals. We're already 2 days "late" because of an Easter egg gimmick that takes 7 minutes to film, a few minutes to add text and music to, and a few more to upload. If you can't make a simple video, then just upload the stock photos...
My problem with them is not that I don't get to see a figure right away (I couldn't care less about that), but more of their awful business practices. Somebody really needs to kick Pete out of the social media chair... he's always saying "this will happen then" and then provides some excuse as to why they couldn't deliver on time. It's exhausting. They're almost as bad as Glenn... at least he tried

Someone on the news crew wrote this article?

Yes, and believe it or not, it was FunPub that was (almost a week) late with putting up Battletrap's page. Trust me, I checked.

Still, better late than never

Can't control how and when FunPub releases things. But there's *supposedly* a new reveal video slated for today.

I just hope they don't release it during Prime Time, I'm not staying up till 3 am CET.

Via their official Twitter account, the team at BotCon have announced their third character in the exclusive event box set 'Cybertron's Most Wanted'. Joining Packrat and Battletrap, we take a look at the toy in the orange egg - The Loose Cannon! To find out who the latest addition is, check out the embedded video below.

Huh. I don't follow Botcon fiction, but how does a SG character fit in with those guys?

If you watched the whole video, you'd hear his bio and how he came in Axiom Nexus, where the story takes place.

And slight correction on my call: it's the same inspiration I was right on, but of course, FunPub had to decide to throw a curve-ball and make them separate characters.
So that would mean that the flashback from the BotCon 2012 comic was this guy, and not the other...

It's a bit of a surprise, but I have to say... any use of the Jazz mold (and any addition to the SG cast) ... I'm quite pleased with. I'm liking all three so far.

SG Stepper - whatever. As good as that mold is, and it is really good, it's time to calm down with the uses of it. What is this, number 9?

Just to be a total hypocrite, repaint number 10 of Nightstick is pretty cool. But again, more blue. Blue everywhere.
