And what about the dinner? Is that free or not?

General Admission gets you into the convention center on Saturday and Sunday. This gives you access to the Sales Room, autograph lines, and (i think) the Panels. As for which events are taking place at which times on those days, you will have to check the schedule at the convention for that.
General Admission is not allowed to attend the Saturday Night Dinner. Only Primus Package holders and their Minicons. No Protoforms or General Admissions.

I attended the dinner in 2008 as an Iacon attendee. I'm sure it has to be either of those to attend.

There was no Energon Sky-byte. You must mean Sharkticon. Skybyte was from RID, in which it was a repaint of Cybershark from BW. Since that mold is from 10+ years ago, I doubt they're going to use it. It'll for sure have to be Energon Sharkticon.
I wasn't expecting Skybyte at all, but hey I guess I'll take it.cannonfodder4000 wrote:EDIT:ooh AND a posable repaint for clench too?!
What's wrong with that? Clench is badass.

I guess I can see the logic of lumping in some European G1 stuff, but what the heck is the point of doing G2 versions of Breakdown or Streetwise? "Hey, this is what it might look like if we'd repainted these guys in garish colors too"? At least if they'd remade actual G2 concepts there would be some nostalgia attached to the ugliness.
I'm a little disappointed, I guess. I came of age in the G2 era, so I was excited to see those toys get some love.
Bumblevivisector wrote:Yeah, if Clench-lossus isn't Onslaught, I can't think of any recent mold that would make sense, since they certainly won't do another 'con repaint of Classics Optimus.
Though if Animated molds were allowed to bleed in, Bulkhead would fit the bill, or Ultra Magnus, whose vehicle mode seems likely inspired by the original Pyro.
Animated molds in blinding G2 colors: why let KOs hog that market?
I'm a tad disappointed that R.I.D. Skybite is being somewhat nonsensically included instead the Cybertronian army finally getting some overdue toys. Maybe we'll get a Jhiaxus, Rook, or Mindset, but not in the box. I'm just not following the R.I.D. connection here: because like G2, it sported Combaticons in strange colors, Spychangers/Gobots, and the Laser Optimus Prime mold? Not that the toys will disappoint, but I'm just not getting the angle of this Botcon's stab at a storyline. Am I missing somthing?
