Would explain why I never saw it. I'm not a club member and this was never forwarded to us, mainly because it was NYCC weekend.

I never seem to get their emails but I saw a tweet about it. Grabbed the tigatron set. Friend grabbed one too, and skywarp.

Ended up about $70 cad for each figure which is much better than the 90-100 it was.

Welp. Got Predacus. Turned right around and sold Predacus.

Part of it is looking at 12-15 Transformersm between that and sub 4.0m and being appalled at how much money was represented by those deluxe repaints.

The other part: Predacus' head looked like a blob of melted solder refuse, badly painted. Ew.

Does anyone remember how we got this set of Magnaboss and Predacus stickers with the 7 special cards (including 2 exclusive BotCon 2016 cards that I think were only available in this set)? Some of the cards are from previous BotCons but this is how this set of stickers and cards came.

Any info would be greatly appreciated so that I can accurately list this in the Seibertron Store. It's been 8 years and many Energon drinks later so I'm a bit fuzzy on how I got these but I seem to remember grabbing these extra sets in-person at the BotCon 2016 store if I recall correctly.

Thanks in advance!

They were originally sold at the Club Store at BotCon 2016, before being put online at the TCC website after the convention. They came as they are on their own as an individual purchase separate from all other Club Store exclusives. No toy or other merch packed in with them.

Also included in those sticker sets are eyes for BotCon 2016 Megatron's dragon heads, as those eyes ended up not being painted by the factory.

I got the stickers only by themselves, mine had no cards, but ebay, so hardly surprising
