The Energon Pub

So, I just got done reading the Botcon Dawn of Future Past comic. It was a decent little read I guess, but it left me with a question.

On the last page it shows Razorclaw and the true Predacons.

Did they get released as exclusives too?

or were they just in the comic. I don't remember reading or seeing anything about them.

Anyway, if they weren't released as exclusives, then what molds did the artists base them off of for the comic?

I'm pretty sure there weren't any plans to make any Predicons after the comic. I had no idea they would eveen be in it until I read the thing. I don't know if anybody else was expecting it but as far as i know it was a suprise.

As far as Cyb. moulds... they appear to be not based on anything specific. Razorclaw looks like he could be based on the Leo-Breaker/Nemisis Breaker mould. That would've been so rad to get a a new razorclaw! I'd spend the ridiculous amount of cash to get that!

I haven't even read the Dawn of Future's Past yet. I guess I had better. All the references to G1 makes me all happy & warm inside.........*sigh*

I don't think they will be released, but they were on display at Botcon.

I think they were thought about, but only those hand painted prototypes were made. All were repaints of existing toys.

Razorclaw - Cybertron Leobreaker
Headstrong - Cybertron Backstop
Divebomb - Cybertron Brimstone
Rampage - Energon Command Ravage
Tantrum - Beast Machines Longhorn

I heard that Razorclaw is getting released as a Club exclusive after Airazor and Astrotrain.

I so badly need to read DOFP because its just so cool, if anyone can upload the comic that would be cool until it gets released in local comic stores

With the scale like that, Razorclaw doesn't need to combine with the others.

I heard that because the artist took to many liberties with Divebomb in the comics he didn't look like the toy they made any more, so they didn't bother displaying it.

That would be correct.

They were commissioned to be made (one set), by a kitbasher named Sean, I believe, to go with the comic. Never meant for any release at that time.

Then how come I heard that Razorclaw is getting released as a club exclusive after Astrotrain and Airazor?
