I'm still just happy I got the Iacon Package for being a non-attendee!

Looks nice, but I can live without it.

I'm pretty sure I can't...

So, all you folks looking to kill me, just snatch up my reserved Alpha Trion. Like a silver bullet or wooden stake to my heart...

(yes, I'm a vampire werewolf.)

Wicked good idea there CP! But who can be trusted with such a quest?

It will probably cost even more after the convention, so it is pretty wise to land the prototype for as much as he did.

I wonder who the mini-con will be named after? Dion? Devcon? :-?

Let the speculation begin!

It looks great reminds me of target masters

That thing is cool. Wish i was going to botcon

by **Swerve** » Tue May 08, 2007 3:39 pm

These things sure have jumped in price in a week. They were at a buy it now of like $49.99 plus $20-$30 shipping.

Intresting, but nothing I can't live without.

That head sculpt owns.

:clears some shelf-space::

He's got the key to Vector Sigma!!!!!!!!!!

Well, the Decepticon Team for BotCon is the best set I've ever seen, but this thing is just a shame for Alpha Trion's name.

You were expecting something better than this for a random non-toy character last seen as a ghost telling Optimus Prime not to get shot in Headmasters? With the new head sculpt I think this is about as well done a homage as a 'toon fan could possibly have hoped for.

My only hope is that the Botcon folk will soon run out of Sunbow incidental characters and maybe start on the Marvel ones, and I can finally get my Goddamn Straxus/Scrounge/Impactor/Xaaron/Jhiaxus/ANYONE toy.

I liked it without the big key in the middle of his chest better. I was initially really bummed out I wasn't going to be able to get this guy...now, not so much.
