in regards to Starscream and possible/inevitable repaints.....I personally am gonna BARF if there's ANOTHER run of seeker repaints. Honestly...how boring is another line of seekers? really.

P.S....i won't actually barf but i'll roll my eyes with disdain.

yay more seekers

I hope someone at Hasbro is putting two and two together. Some radical changes need to happen with both BotCon and the Transformers Collectors' Club.

Probably because admission was the price of a Big Mac Combo. But 15,000 ain't bad. For this to be the first year, they certainly got off on the right foot. To be fair, Botcon has only had... wait...what?...are you sure..... 18 years!!???!! Are you kidding me?

THere is also a significant difference in population between here in the US and there in China...they have nearly 5 times our population, so one can generally expect more people at any type of convention over there.

Y'know I've been thinking... In terms of actual information being revealed on the Transformers brand does Botcon really compare to Toy Fair or SDCC? I mean you've got the dealer rooms, the special guests and the exclusives. But in terms of news does it really compare to non-Transformers events? Maybe I'm just imagining things but I feel that typically I end up anticipating hearing from other events more than Botcon. Botcon just sounds like a place you go to blow your money and heckle Brian Savage and his minions.

Ahh so you HAVE been to Botcon! See what I did there? No, you really can blow some serious cash there. First trip to Botcon: all about toys. Every trip after that: friends and shenanigans. I don't really think the reveals at Botcon are all that ground breaking, Seibertron would be a good guy to answer this one.

There are still people who think Singapore is in China?

Was there today, it's a big letdown. Besides the panels, there's nothing much else. Just an exhibition of the toys, and some customs. A lot of empty space in the huge hall. Badly organized too, we were made to stand in line for 40 minutes for a panel even after being handed number tags. And then people were let in after the panel started.

hey every i think percepter is in the transformers fall of cybertron. i found this gameplay video on youtube and you will hear it at .46 seconds. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1sOtKy1s ... re=related

OKay I'm an idiot. I was thinking of Shanghai. My bad. BUt in my defense I had just gotten off a 9 hour shift at the assisted living facility I work at, and it was also the day after "Spring Forward Daylight Savings Time" so my brain was not working at peak capacity. More like 15%...

That is THE SECOND BEST STARSCREAM FIGURE, seconded only by MP Starscream. And no, it doesn't matter which MP Starscream is the best, they're pretty much the same thing.

Decent screen accuracy in both modes. CHECK

Relatively good proportions. CHECK

Affordability. CHECK

I'ma finally gettin' me a WFC Starscream.

Wow. Galaxy Force/Cybertron was my favorite Starscream sculpt. This may be a new favorite.

Um....he looks better than the WFC Game model! He looked so fat in the game, but this looks amazing!

NEW SEEKERS TO BUY! YAY!
