What a weird combination then. Be interesting to see what this year's "theme" will be then.

If these are Botcon, at least one will be part of the add on sets. They do look nice though.

That's cool. This set is winning me over more and more. Oviously these are not in the box set. I'm betting 1 is a souvenir and the other is the freebie figure. BotCon is supposed to reveal another figure today too, aren't they?

My biggest annoyance with repaints is if they don't make a new head. I hope this is just an "unfinished preview" and they have new head sculpts. I was going to be looking for a G1 repaint of this mold at BotCon this year so if these two are in the set, Ill be leaving with 3. So far this botcon has given me a bunch of doubles, triples, and quadruples of figs I have =(

I hope the big one of the set is a less used mold

Aren't the characters already announced?

"Wings of Honor Convention Set: A five-figure boxed set which includes
Kup, Thunderclash, Landshark, Flak, and Scourge, all presented in an
illustrated display box." -09 botcon brochure

or you guys thinking these might be bonus figs? If this is part of the set, Id say it's Thunderclash and Flak.

no you don't have to go. If they aren't sold out yet you can order a set from botcon's site. Go there and fill out the registration form to place your order, then fax it in.

Like them. Skyquake is pretty cool. Its interesting to note that the Original Skyquake got repainted into Machine Was Starscream, so its quite appropriate that a Starscream would then get repainted into Skyquake.


I love the dark copper and bluish green combination. I wonder why Hasbro discontinued the idea of packing energon Weapons with the toys, they were really cool and had lots of play value.

These are going to be some of the bonus souvenir sets that are purchasable at Botcon, or one of them will be the free souvenir figure.

Can't do that for the souvenir sets or the free attendee figures. BBTS or ebay will be the only alternatives I'm afraid.

Well I feel better about these if these are the bonus figs.

Jet versions of Roadbuster and Kup =P


if none of these are the free bonus figs, how much do they usually sell the souvenir sets for? This is my first time going so I see now that there is the main convention set, a free bonus fig, and this is the first time knowing that there are other figs exclusive to this event, and these are usually referred to as souvenir sets? Is there usually only 1 souvenir set?

or is the "bonus figure" considered the same as a "souvenir"?

Nope. Not alone. Still underwhelmed with this year's offerings. I'm sure they'll be must-buys for someone, though.

By getting the Primus package, you get a bonus figure for going. One of these figures might be for that.

That's for the boxed set, which is can be purchased in the Iacon package if your not able to attend. To get the bonus figure I'm seeing in the brochure, you kinda need ta go. This bonus figure is part of of the Primus package, and you need to be there to pick it up.

My vote for the HOF goes to my favorite Transformer, Kup, to the Headmasters (who still need new figures that aren't just the characters without their master components) and to seibertron.com for for being the ultimate TF resource.

There should be around 10 figures in total, the 5 piece boxed set, the bonus attendee figure for Primus package attendees and 2 souvenir sets. These are usually 2 figure sets supplied bagged with instructions and profile cards but no boxes and are only available at the convention. Aside from leaks like this the souvenir figures arn't announced ahead of the con. If you're planning to take both sets home with you put aside around $200 on top of your other spends.
