But the Cannonball who will be a Star Seeker captain in this BotCon story will be a G1 Cannonball.
A non-Wings version I presume? The Wings one was killed and his crew was called the Maraudicons.
This Cannonball will not be the same person who died before, but is said to still be a Wings Uiverse version of the guy, suggesting a similar "Dread Pirate Roberts" concept like his Cybertron namesake.
They were fine with IDW G1 Ultra Magnus being basically the same thing.JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:Sabrblade wrote:A Cannonball was killed.

Pete@BotCon wrote:Yes, all the toys are Pirates and Knights. There are 5 Knights, 5 Pirates (there MAY be some more Pirates in the story though), some Pirate troop builders and one Decepticon rogue who may or may not end up on the side of the Pirates.
The story is very fun, and I can't wait to announce who was behind it this year

I see what you did there.Bumblevivisector wrote:Oh well, maybe next year's theme will go even more mashup-crazy and crossover with other Hasbro properties, with Mach Kick repainted into various Ponies, other random animal-alt TFs going Littlest Pet Shop, etc. If it spills over into other non-Hasbro HUB toons, maybe Bakudora as SheZow? If Ser-Ket ends up having to be a FunPub toy, it could happen.

Didn't he already get a toy?
So the troop builders are ALSO pirates? Well, crap. There goes my last vestige of interest.
Gonna wait until pics, but the theme hasn't drawn my interest.

Rated X wrote:I could care less about the silly them e. If the figures homage G1 characters, ill get them. Im not fond of the whole "theme" concept. I wish they would do more gap filler sets like games of deception. I never considered that a theme, just a set of repaints people wanted including the convention exclusives.
