The Energon Pub

So I thought about front paging this, but with the divided line we have going on our site her I figured, I would keep it on the down low...

Thanks to reliable TFW2005 source darthconvoy for bringing us word of what appears to be the final BotCon 2008 souvenir toys. They are rumored to be an Armada Blurr repaint with a remolded head, and a green and grey Armada Wheeljack repaint.

As we previously reported the other rumored BotCon 2008 souvenir toys are Megatron (Energon Megatron repaint with a remolded head) and Rodimus (Classics Rodimus repaint including a beard). Discuss and speculate on these revelations by clicking the discuss button below.

The green/grey Armada Wheeljack has me geeked!!!

I guess Classics Todimus is still just a rumor

Hmmm... if there's supposedly a 7-to-7 balance of Bots and Cons, I'm a bit confused.

So far I'm counting 4 evil Autobots (Prime, Grimlock, Goldbug, and Jazz) and 3 virtuous Decepticons (Starscream, Razorclaw, and Ricochet).

Assuming there are two Add-On sets, with two characters each, that's only 4 more characters, how does this equate to a 7-to-7 balance??

Unless there are two Add-On sets, one with 3 more evil Autobots, and the other with 4 more virtuous Decepticons.

You know, if the Add-Ons are good, this set could be worthwhile after all!

tigertracks- Hope you still wanna trade by the time the con rolls around, cause this Set is really starting to impress me. Assuming the Add-Ons live up to my expectations/dreams/hopes.

Why can't they make a clear classics mirage mold as an exclusive figure.

That'd be hot...

I don't see any reason not to trade my second 5 character set.

The Add-ons seem more interesting to me if the rumors are true, anyway.

Decepticons:
Soundwave (cybertron soundwave)
Laserbeak to go with soundwave
Barricade (wheeljack)
Blitzwing (?)

Autobots:
Tracks (Blurr)
Rodimus

Total:7 vs. 7
Autobots total:
Prime
Jazz
Goldbug
Grimlock
Richochet
Tracks
Rodimus

Decepticons total:
Megatron

Razorclaw
Soundwave
