The Energon Pub

Word has been coming over the course of the day as the various Botcon 2011 exclusives sold out. If you were hoping for left overs to be sold on the TFCC website, then ebay maybe your only option right now unless you know somebody with extras. The following sets are sold out.

• Animated Sideswipe and Toxitron set
• Shattered Glass Galvatron and AM Thundercracker set
• Autotroopers 3 pack

I want one of those autotroopers but they are already $150 on ebay

Gotta love scalpers who buy those sets only to resell them... isn't that illegal though? It should be.

This makes me a very sad panda BTW, if by some act of Primus their is left overs, how long till they hit the TCC store? Monday morning?

Crap! Now I lost my chances.

I'm glad I'm going to the convention next year cause trying to find people that would help me out was a nightmare and still didn't have any luck.

If anyone finds it in their heart to hook me up with SG Galvatron and Thundercracker, I will put you on my awesome list.

NOOO!! i really wanted sideswipe and an autotrooper

Looks like my prediction last night when we were chatting on facebook came true. Glad I went ahead and bought the attendee only figures I wanted Friday night on eBay. Now that everyone knows they're sold out the prices will probably increase.

Yeah, I'm gonna worry about buying them up later.

The figures are going for stupid amounts right now, but the prices always stabilize a few weeks later.

I have the gift of patience.

Also if anyone wants to trade SG Galvatron and Thundercracker let me know! I've got a sealed Botcon 2009 Razorclaw & Elita-1 set for trade.

It doesn't seem as if the Stunticon set is anywhere near as popular as some of the previous Botcon sets. I managed to pick up a MISB set for just over 250 bucks a few hours ago. I don't have the best memory, but I don't ever remember seeing Botcon sets going for that cheap right after Botcon. From what I can tell, the average price for the Stunticon set is between 350-400 dollars.

I'm looking at the MASS of over-priced Botcon 2011 figures right now, and to be honest, I just can't pump myself up to like any of them, especially at the prices people are asking. I'm just not even feeling any hype over these figures.

I seriously wish everyone selling their stuff good luck in finding buyers, but with 419 lots already currently labelled 'Botcon 2011', I get the feeling that some of the more overpriced items will stink up eBay for quite a long time to come.
