Botcon 2008: Everything you know will be shattered

There is more to Transformers than movies, cartoons, comics and toys. Discuss anything else Transformers here.

I think I'm going with they are still autobots, but act more like decepticons and vice versa.

It better not be a Nova Prime repaint, I don't want to pay $100+ for a silly Optimus Prime repaint. (But I'm stupid and gullible and probably will anyways)

Okay, perhaps a "backworlds" where the Autobots are evil and Decepticons are good? The just and true Mega Prime leads the villiant Decetpabots against the villianous Optitron and the evil hordes of the Autocons!

I'd say the picture looks sorta like Cybertron Hot Shot.

That third figure looks like Cybertron Red Alert/Cannonball to me.

What the hell is this "IDW Dark Universe?" I couldn't find anything on it.

might be noteworthy that in the video, right before the two symbols collide, the autobot symbol turns purple and the con red.

Yep.

For a better look at the "unidentifiable bot", choose "view background image" and pump your brightness.

I still can't tell who it is, though.

Funny stuff!! I particularly liked: Megatron as "The leader of a ragtag, rebel group of freedom fighters determined to overthrow the oppressive, tyrannical Autobots."—and Dead End as "Mr Shunshine".

For anyone having trouble figuring out the Dark Universe reference it was a typo. You should in fact be looking for Dead Universe.

Yeah. Sky Lynx has a transporter malfunction when Optimus and Jazz are beaming down to the planet, and they end up in the Mirror Universe. This looks good. I'm hoping for some Dead Universe TF's.

I don't think they'll be doing any faction switching.
They'll just back the Autobots "Bad" and the decepticons "good".


But I hope the don't repaint Classics Optimus as Nova Prime
Nova Prime deserves better.
