Man.. hope Seibertron gets some news up on this soon. Just saw the Botcon photos on another site.. looks frickin' awesome!

Yeah.... just waiting on the big man to get some photos up.. I'm liking the Arcee Sisters and Sideways set.

Tell him to get the led out...

I also like the goofy colored Desert Brawl set w/Jolt. Looks very "G2" (although I'm not sure that was the intention). Lots of good 'animated' news also to share.

Well most of this stuff have been rumors floating around so it's nice to see. I don't know how you like that Brawl/Jolt set.. that Brawl mode needs to be put into the Vault. Not sure what's the ETA on the photos, hasn't really contacted me, but we'll up it ASAP.

Yep, but like you said, official confirmation.

About Brawl, I don't know. I don't own any of the Deluxe versions of this mold, and something about the retina burning yellow and gaudy "camoflauge" is appealing to me. I will be picking it up for sure.

Hmmm... I have the God Neptune set that I really like already. Yes it doesn't have guns and only comes with 5 bots, but the color scheme is actually nice. This will be a hard call to see if i stick with what I have or snatch up a Reissue when I can.

Wait. Blaster's the SDCC exclusive, and the Seacons have no listing of the retailer...so where ARE they going to be sold at?

I sure hope it's an actual store, and one I can get to. I don't want to pay online prices only to get jerked around. Oh heck no.

C'mon Hasbro, make it accessible to EVERYone.

Well, the news has been pulled down..... Something must be going on behind the scene :grin:

Yeah I saw that too ... briefly.

Didn't get a good long look, but I hope they are not the final colours. Snaptrap's head was pink (instead of black) which didn't looks great, and Overbite was in the same bright pink we'd seen him in recently.

Kinda suspect they will be the final colours though. Oh well, painting Snaptraps head won't be hard, and I'll be happy to get my hands on these moulds for a more reasonable price than the G1 figures.

I guess we'll find out for sure when Hasbro do their panel though

Please more update is needed on the G1 Seacons!

Won't be too much longer. You can bet the other site had to take down all the images by request of Hasbro/organizers as they were premature. Anyway, the packaging alone was awesome. All of them were in the clear acrylic-like packaging combined into Piranacon. Sword was chromed out, too (or a high-polish silver/pewter). Only annoying things is that the stickers were already applied, like SDCC Soundwave.

It said 'limited edition' or something like that on the packaging, so this could end up exclusively sold at a particular store or Hasbro Toy Shop. I don't think SDCC will be the venue for this due to all the other exclusives assigned to it, but I could be wrong (I didn't see any SDCC stickers applied to the packaging).
