If you happen to see a neon coloured armored vehicle on the road, you might want to pinch yourself, you're likely dreaming. If you happen to see a neon coloured armored vehicle at this year's Botcon convention, get your wallet ready because you're about lay down some serious cash. The latest Botcon reveal happens to be a neon coloured armored vehicle and a repaint/remold of Universe 2008 Deluxe Onslaught! This figure is a homage to Generation Two character Clench, and subsequently has the same name. Clench follows Spark, Breakdown, and Streetwise as the first four Botcon reveals, and the four out of five pieces to the Botcon Boxed Set. The fifth is Skybyte. Check out the retro look below!

He's cool for what he is, but this really disappoints me. I was hoping he'd be bigger :(

Obvious Photoshop is Obvious.

Interesting. I wouldn't have thought that. is it just me or does the vehicle image look heavily photoshopped?

Not Just the vehicle mode.

Edit: That's not even a new head mold.

Um, yeah, did we get this from an official source? It looks like a badly-done digibash to me. Someone could've easily taken the Botcon logo from the last reveal. That, or Funpub doesn't have the toy on hand yet, and they REALLY bad at digibashing. :lol:

I can't believe my impression of this set just went from "good" to "not good" in one day.

Tankor's okay for ten bucks, but not as a convention mold.

so Heroic Autobot leader Pyro (whatever) is going to fight Evil Decepticon leader Clench, who's half the size of him? Very heroic that, beating up the little guy.

I think I'm the only person on Earth who loves the Tankor mold.

He looks great.

Although three deluxes and one voyager makes Sharkticon the Ultra? Huh?

I don't mind it per se...but I find this and Streetwise...disappointing.

Still maybe a group shot of them will make it look better. Maybe.

agreed, I will keep my fingers crossed this is a fan made digibash.

I dont even use the original classics tankor in my collection due to his dinky arms and ridiculous weapon

So we might be getting Onslaught used instead for Clench, With a new head.
