Same, I wanted to read up what was discussed there.

Shouldn't they Also have revealed tfss 5.0?

That will likely be today. Yesterday's one was the Magazine/Comic panel. Today's is the Roundtable.

Ah okay, thanks

Ya know what really frustrates me about this, is that for years and years, one of my life long ambitions was to go to a Botcon. Every year, i either was effected by financial crisis, or health issues, or the con was too far away for me to travel. Now, i'll never have that opportunity. I'm really kinda destroyed by this news, and i hope that some sort of "Transformers" con comes back in it's place. I really want to go to one of these at least one time in my life.

I know its not a big deal to everyone else who has either had the privilege to go, or generally doesn't care, but the convention means alot to me.

At the Aaron Archer panel. Turns out he's the man behind Armada, a line of brightly colored Batman figures, and most of Hasbro's Jar Jar product. Very interesting.

That was an already known fact.

Ask about Orson's World and see what his opinion on the situation with that was.

Apparently the SD74 thing on Armada Hoist is due to him taking a key to (and having some fun with) a crane in San Diego after getting wasted with Judd Nelson at an "adult establishment"

Anyone going to Botcon is pretty lucky but lat night, there were a few special 100 who were extra lucky. At the Stan Bush adn Vince Dicola concert, 100 limited edition Transformers The Movie CDs were available. Our own xRotorstormx got herself a copy and took some images to show us.

That's not a CD, that's a vinyl LP set. It's pretty clear from the labels in the photos.

Is it a CD or record?

Huh...it's not a CD, it's Vinyl...

I never really understood the side stuff, can anyone explain it to me?

Wish I could have one (not on Vinyl though), but most of it is free on Youtube.

The sides are which side of each disc on which the music is recorded. It's pretty straightforward.

In addition to the few Hasbro new announcements from the Transformers brand panel today at BotCon 2016 in Louisville, KY, we also have the official stock images of the products in the lines discussed, inlcluding Titans Return, Robots in Disguise, Platinum Edition Autobot Heroes, Alt-Modes and Computron (with Scrounge!). You can find the galleries by clicking on the images below!

As a bonus round, you can also check these out in motion, with the dulcet tired tones of yours, Britalian, truly, in the embedded Seibertron.com video, too.

Dont worry, these events wont end. Botcon, that specific con, will end but there are still a bunch of TF shows all over the states. Plus Hasbro is rpesent at both NYCC and SDCC, you can go to those.
AND word on the street is Hasbro will be running these shows from now on and make them more filled with activities, kinda like Star Wars celebration. So dont worry, you can a) still assist product reveals at other shows and b) still participate in whatever Hasbro plans next.

Thanks for the heads up! Wish I could snag this version along with my previous versions. Note to the author of this article: Please update to read "Limited Edition vinyl LP." If you look at some of the pix,the cover sticker reveals that it's pressed on 180 gram vinyl. This refers to the (vinyl thickness in particular and) extra weight of the record itself.

I changed it in the news article, thanks!

What are these new deformed Transformers.

I.Want.Now.

You mean the "Alt Modes" toys with the big heads? IIRC they're gonna be either blind bagged or blind boxed.

You're not alone. I've been to a couple and regret not going to this one, it was even close to me. I hope Hasbro picks up the ball with this and runs with it, or at the very least expands into other Comic Cons, or SOMETHING, but there's nothing like a convention full of like minded fans.

I want the convention to keep going so that way some day I can go to one

Same boat, brother. We're in the same boat.

The wait is on for someone to perform a quality rip :3

What, no robot modes for the individual Titan Masters?

Not yet at least.

After packing up our hauls to head home, carytheone and I put some combined brain power on Reflector to figure out how he "works".



Then we got weird on it.

Surveillance Crab Mode


Microchange Crab Mode


Fun times!

Hey, I remember that, good times!
