Something BIG to make debut on Club Forums Tonight @ 8 PM E

Postby Bed Bugs » Wed Jan 23, 2008 2:34 am

Motto: "The Bigger The Buffet, The Better!"
Weapon: Black Magic
Pete@Botcon has posted an interesting tidbit on the Transformers Collectors Club forums. At 8 PM, Eastern Time, Pete will be posting something as quoted to be "HUGE" exclusively on the Club Forums. There have been no other hints given to what this big news is, but Pete has said that, "You DON'T want to miss this".

To view the announcement, log into your account at the club site. Then click on the "Club News and Updates" forum. From there, click the topic labeled "Super big news for you all".

As this most undoubtedly will be an image of some sort, we expect our members to respect the club and NOT copy the image and post it anywhere. Seibertron.com WILL post a description of what the big surprise is so non-members will have a rough idea what they are missing, but no image copies will be allowed.

Seibertron.com strongly encourages fans to join the Collectors Club so everyone can view breaking news items such as this firsthand. To join the Collectors Club, click here.

I'm going to guess and say it will be an image of the box art for the Botcon box set.

Hmm, Botcon set info or Seacons. :-? Either way, I think it is going to be something expensive. :grin:

Maybe news or pics of Classics 2.0 wave 1? They said that it would be mentioned at the end of January.

It will be something completely useless to anyone who doesn't already belong to the club, and doubt it will convince anyone who doesn't already belong to join the club. But hey I will be interested to find out what it is none the less.

Nice to see enthusiasm, but it won't be Fort Max. That's the question asked every year at Botcon, to which Brain says "No".

I'm guessing it will be just the names of the characters who will be the "cast" of this years Botcon story line.

While I understand and respect the decision to not copy the image that is given out at 8pm, it's counter-productive to business. No one is going to join the club just so that they can hear an announcement; however, some may join the club after they see what it is that the club will be selling.

So you're saying that anybody that isn't a member has no reason to see what's going on in the club? :? It seems to me that there are quite a few non-members who are at least interested in Botcon and pictures of the new Classic line.

It's a little "perk" of joining the club. You get to see something before everybody else.

I’m pretty sure it’s the Botcon set, there was actually a rumor yesterday of what figures would be in the set over at TFW2005.

Yes, expensive for sure. Either way it should be cool. I'm with the Seacons or Botcon info--I doubt they would have to go through the Club just to show off pictures of the new Universe figures.

considering the membership fee covers the free yearly figure, shipping of the figure, newsletters and the master collector newsletter, also is equivalent to the discount you receive on Botcon and other Club exclusives.

Not that big of a deal unless you are cheap.

Well those would be neato.

I think it's gonna be something Club related and not Botcon related.
Hopefully they let us order the club exclusives or at least give
us pics of the Nightbeat figure. I'm probably wrong.

1.) Seacons
2.) Botcon Sign Up files
3.) Introduction of Botcon Exclusives

Just guessing it's one or more of these three.

And the hype is so those who don't pay, want to pay. If they want to see it early, they need to pay. Otherwise all you get are our descriptions of it.

That page won't load up for me, so what are the rumored figures?

By the by, I don't think we're allowed to talk about the Club in any positive way, because it will upset non-Club members who could become Club members save for the ever-topical interjections of how the Club is a rip off. So in true American fashion, as a Club member I will not discuss something I enjoy so as not to offend those who don't for whatever reasons, many of which are because people simply don't want to. The free exchange of ideas here on Seibertron thrives on such shut-mouthed freedoms.

Ready for my banning.

My guess is the Seacons.
Or something Animated/Classics/Universe related.
Seems a tad too early for the BotCon set info.

...although BotCon comes in April this year iirc...so, it could be the set info.
