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!

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.

Really now?
How about you back that up a little?
How exactly does this toy and incarnation of Alpha Trion a 'shame to his name'?

He dosn't look bad, but hes more of a A3 than Trion. Still for an exclusive, this isn't bad(unlike the Seekers)
