BotCon 2007 is only months away and until now we have had no clue what the new logo for BotCon 2007 would look like. Now we do! The official BotCon website, BotCon.com, has had a minor update. The update is that the old BotCon 2006 logo was taken down and the new BotCon 2007 logo was put up. Here is the new logo:

[1337W422102]

An instant Classic.
(pun intended)

[NebulanFree]

Aren't the Con Exclusives this year supposed to be retools/repaints of Classics?

Speculation?
Seekers?
Hubcap?

[First-Aid]

What a total lack of creativity...meh.

[The Collector]

OH HEEEEELL YEAH!

[ShockwaveUK]

Stunticons!

[DecepticonRedAlert]

I like it

[Liege Evilmus]

Hey that don't suck so much!

I wonder which Prime that is though

Maybe RID

It's Classics Prime.

Unless Classics Prime is a major player in the con comic (which he might be, if it's set in Marvelverse) the logo seems to be pointing at a Prime repaint. If it's Nemesis Prime, I'm gonna hurt somebody. I wouldn't say no to a Jetfire repaint in there somewhere, though.

The logo itself... is a logo. It's fine. I am mildly amused by the way the C looks like it's trying to eat the second O.

No big deal, but it is nice. A BotCon logo doesn't have to be special, it just has to exist. They put it on everything, and no matter how good it is, many people will be sick of it by the end of the weekend.

I myself don't like it much, but that's just me. I liked the one from a few years back better.........

Then again, wasn't the old logo of G1 Sideswipe? If that be the case, they possibly chose Classics Prime because he is an updated form of the original, but not necessarily going to be repainted for the set.

If he was...I'd say paint him black, gray, & purple, give him a different head, & call him Motormaster.

To be honest, though, the only classics figure I can really forsee almost being a definate of them making is Thundercracker. Why? Because it would be a simple repaint, & they left him out.

.....hmm.... come to think of it, wouldn't it be neat to see an entire seeker fleet...Thundercracker & Sunstorm from Starscream's mold, & Dirge & Thrust from Ramjet's mold.....

.....& then to finish it off.....hmm.....maybe Jetfire repainted as Sixshot with a different head?? The name would fit, even though he wouldn't be a multi-changer....well...because Jetfire has 6 different cannons: 2 on his backpack, one on each forearm, & his double-barreled gun.

If you're gonna do that, redesign the wind-break-thingy on top of the cab, to convert into a big freakin' sword. Motormaster just isn't Motormaster without a big freakin' sword.

And if that's the case... Hmmm. Bumblebee, Mirage, and Rodimus are already available for repainting/remolding as Stunticons...

Mirage obviously Dragstrip, Hot Rod [with a retooled spoiler] Wildrider or Breakdown and Bumblebee as Deadend.

At least we know what one of this year's exlusives will be.

Well, he's in the TFCC newsletter comic right now, so anything's possible.

I wouldn't mind a Classics Nemesis Prime. I love repaints though. Also, thanks for pointing out the C eating the O. I had a good laugh at it.

As for Motormaster being an exclusive figure, you'd be more likely to see Menasor as Hasbro no longer has the name Motomaster. I could see it being the stunticons, but you may get one or two misplaced names.

Hahaha, I can see the fans expressions now if they were to announce the con exclusives as the Stunticons: Menasor, Dead-end, Breakdown, Oil Slick and Decepticharge

OH ya, the logo. It's cool I guess.

You know,despite the fact that these are all supposed to be based on classics figures, I'm still kinda hoping for a Vector Prime retool into Alpha Trion. That would be awsome, IMHO.
