Has anyone heard anything yet about the BotCon 2012 exclusives that haven't sold out (if any) being offered for purchase through the club store? The revamped store still seems very empty. Over the past few years, there were usually a few bagged sets and souvenier sets to scoop up if you were quick, but if the store is still only partially implemented, I get the feeling that FunPublications might not even bother this year.

For the sovinear packs, i think there would be few left...
I actually want Metalhawk, Gigatron, SG prime and SG junkions... Chances of me aquiring any: 0%.

I just can't justify $60 for a deluxe.

All I'm interested in this year are Metalhawk, Gigatron, Kick-Off, and Spinister. The Shattered Glass characters don't interest me, so I'll most likely sell them off.

Fun Pub said they will restocking the online store soon. They usually set back a number of all their figures to exchange for defects which they usually sell when they have taken care of problems. This year should be no different.
The souvenir sets that sold out at the show are the junkions and sg Prime/Kick-Off. To my knowledge Octopunch/Spinister did not sell out.

Thanks for the heads up. Too bad about the SG Prime/Kick-Off sets being sold out. Looks like it's eBay time for Kick-Off.

For the others, I'll just wait until the store is restocked.

Yes according to twitter the Spinister/Octopunch set is the only thing that didn't sell.
That said last year everything sold out at Botcon, and then a while later they put up the figures that they were keeping in reserve in case anyone needed replacements for sale.

Brian said during the club panel that the new store will be fully operational ( i believe) in a few weeks. I imagine some of the octopunch and spinister sets should show up. As for the other 2 sets, sometimes it pays to actually be at botcon

It hurts that botcon is 24 hours away from me by flight.

Oh well, I plan to go someday when it's Neo-G1 themed again. Hoping for a targetmaster boxset.
