Probably because Dinobots are not Beast Wars.
Also the fact that we just had exclusives of redecos of toys into g1 dinobots

Not like Tarantulus, right? We'd never get a single character redeco'ed twice in a little more than a year, and certainly not from the same Club, right? Nah, no way. Redecos are ALWAYS well spaced out so we don't get two versions of the same character forced on us in a short time frame.

I was complimenting you!
I entirely agree with what you said. As with many aspects of the franchise, bar comics so far, the different branches don't seem to really talk to each other or keep each other on the radar in terms of releases, output and the such.
The Club is particularly guilty of that, but I have a feeling it may be down to Hasbro ultimately.
For how long? I might need to wait another week for my next paycheck before I can register.TF_JW wrote:Registration is live!!

1.Predacus is a Botcon exclusive,
2.Who would the 6th member be?.
D-Maximus_Prime wrote:Fellow Seibertronians! From the Botcon 2016 Twitter page We now have new art for the 5 members of Predacus! We have seen images before of both Predacus and General Ramhorn, but we now have art for the remaining 4 members: Tarantulas, Ravage, General SeaClamp and General Cicadacon! Check out these images below, and sound off in the comments section regarding the new art works!
To clarify on the Golden Ticket figure. It's more than just a minor paint change. The GT Legends figure is cast in different color plastic.
Also, the figure does not tie in to the Convention set theme directly, but it does tie in to the continuity the set takes place in.
Note, the set doesn't take place in the Beast Wars Uprising Universe. Where it DOES take place is quite exciting! Announcement on that soon!
No, the GT toy is NOT a Beast Wars character. It uses the troop builder mold & is tied to a familiar G1 character.
The class kit figure is ALSO not a Beast Wars character. It is a Generation 1 character.
No. But it IS a 1984/1985 Generation 1 character. You definitely should add the class/class kit to ur registration.

Sabrblade wrote:These Tweets confirm that the troop builder set uses a Legends mold, so now we have:
5 CW molds in the boxed set
1 CW mold as the attendee freebie with a brand new headsculpt
1 CW mold as the custom class figure with an "an alternative head sculpt that is not available at retail", and which is not a BW character but a 1984/1985 G1 character
1 CW Legends class mold as the troop builder souvenir set, which will have an alternate version of itself included with the Golden Ticket package, and the GT version is also not a BW character but is related to a familiar G1 character
1 non-CW "centerpiece" souvenir figure
1 CW mold souvenir figure
1 non-CW mold souvenir figure
Plus, one of the souvenir figures will feature a headsculpt that has not been released in the U.S. before.

Sabrblade wrote:BotCon Twitter made some more Tweets. Of the 9 CW molds used, 7 are Deluxes, 1 is a Voyager, and 1 is a Legends.
So the new rundown is as follows:
5 CW molds in the boxed set, four Deluxes and the 1 Voyager
1 CW Deluxe attendee figure with a new headsculpt
1 CW Deluxe custom class figure with an "alternative" headsculpt, and who is a 1984-1985 G1 character rather than a BW character
1 CW Legends as the troop builder set, and as the GT figure who is a non-BW character related to a familiar G1 character
1 CW Deluxe souvenir figure
1 non-CW mold "centerpiece" souvenir figure
1 non-CW mold other souvenir figure
And one of the souvenirs (not the centerpiece?) has a non-U.S. headsculpt.

Both the attendee figure and custom figure are Deluxes. CW Groove is a Legends mold.beloth wrote:what about the CW grove motorcycle tf ....as blackarchnia for the attende tf and possibly elita one (she is a G1 character) as the custom figure.
