I disagree that the dealer room was weak as I actually found some of my best deals yet, both in terms of price and rarity, including some stuff I don't think I've really seen much of, if at all during my prior 5 BotCons. As always, everyone is looking for something a little bit different.

I actually liked how they did the Casino Night this year, intermixing it with the Hall of Fame dinner and having it all in the hotel. It just made it more of an open social event from start to finish. Besides, unlike in some prior years, they weren't charging for any of the party stuff and the food was top notch.

For people (like me) who couldn't go to botcon to see Hasbro version of mp-10, we just couldn't tell by the pictures online. If you plan to buy the US version by Hasbro, can you do a comparison with the Takara version for us? I was personally really upset that I spent the extra money instead of waiting and after listening to you, I feel jjjust a little better. Thanks and keep up the good work.

You should feel good about your purchase. I honestly think that if you're looking for a slavishly accurate to the cartoon version, Takara was the way to go.

The blue roller was the first thing I noticed. Thank you for pointing out the other things.

on the subject of the soundwave/soundblaster voyager coming out, for those of us who already have the deluxe version of soundwave it makes more sense to buy the soundblaster of the larger mold as long as you can still get lazerbeak and buzzsaw in some kind of legion packaging.

Nuh uh.

Laserbeak - packaged with Soundwave
Buzzsaw - packaged with Soundblaster
Rumble - Cyberverse legion two-pack (with either Ravage or Ratbat)
Frenzy - Cyberverse legion two-pack (with either Ravage or Ratbat)
Ravage - Cyberverse legion two-pack (with either Rumble or Frenzy)
Ratbat - Cyberverse legion two-pack (with either Rumble or Frenzy)

That's how each figure is going to be released.
