F**k it. I decidede to go Animated or not. I ordered a XXXL shirt. I learned last year that XL is small as hell and who ever picks the sizes has no taste in hip hop fashion. Anyways see you there.

Haha, couldn't take it huh? What had you convinced?

Well I am really excited for the HoF awards, even though I missed Cullen's induction. I would of gone to Botcon 2010 but only for the 1st annual HoF. Glad I didnt go, with the G2 set they had really didnt look that good, plus Orlando was a plane ride compared to a long drive to Pasadena.

Hope you weren't procrastinating if you had planned on purchasing a non-attendee Iacon package for this year's Botcon 2011. They're already sold out! BotCon issued the following tweet about an hour ago:

Iacon packages sold out. Plz do not register as Primus and then ask to switch over to non-attending. Those will be cancelled...

And now I wait for Cheetor.

Who better not be the one of the attendee additions. They teased the hell out of him.

I just registered. What is up with the Seibertron.com party?

Since I am not a gambler, is there anything else to do within walking distance on Saturday night in Pasadena?

Does anyone know who any of the guests are yet?

Here's your latest BotCon 2011 update. Love 'em or hate 'em, the Animated Stunticons sold out at a record setting pace! All toy packages are sold out! The following email was just sent out by BotCon:

BotCon Primus and Iacon and loose packages are now all sold out!

That's right, it took just a little over 5 days for all of the toy packages to be gone!

If you tried to place an order before today and your order went to our incomplete file, no worries as we have pulled enough sets to cover all of the incompletes. If we have any sets left after we work the incompletes, we will put them back into inventory. We will let you know if this happens, and it won't be for a couple of weeks. There will not be anymore Iacon (non-attending sets).

Also, we will not be keeping a waiting list.

Please note that we are in the middle of GIJoeCon in Florida so we won't be working the incomplete files until after April 9.

We know who you are and we will follow back up with you then. Please be patient.

We still have Protoform packages available.

We look forward to seeing you in Pasadena in a couple of months!

Stay tuned for upcoming guest information!

Brian

I got my Primus package. Now lets see what they have to offer this year.

NOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo!!!!!

I knew I should have bought some extra box set to sell.

Sold out? Wow. Hmm...maybe Animated was more popular than people like to admit.

Sorry man, I won't be making it out to Botcon this year. A bunch of circumstances arose and I'll be sitting this year out. But I will be back next year, when I hope it's not an animated set.

Wow. I might just have to eat my words about this. I personally love Animated, but I would've thought this was a poor business decision all around, especially considering that Hasbro seemed to have canceled the line early, the cartoon was canceled (or not renewed -- take your pick), and how the toys themselves seemed to be quite the pegsitters (I'm pretty sure you can still find this at most TRUs still in limited quantities). I've been a big defender of it since day 2 (remember that horrible first pic of Optimus that got leaked ... yeah, I was pretty expressive about disliking that), but I would never have thought doing Animated at BotCon would've been a good choice.

So here we are less than one week after Registration went live, and the sets are all sold out. I think this is the fastest sell out ever. Congrats to BotCon. That's pretty amazing.

I'm absolutely shocked that this sold out like it did.

I still need help in acquiring this set and it looks like it's going to be somewhat harder to do now.

I think the whole Animated hate is more a case of a vocal minority. Most(if not all) TF fans I know that don't frequent forums loved it, but it seems to get a big negative rap from select groups online.

So excited I was able to get my Primus set(ordered as soon as I got my Club e-mail). I'm so hyped, this will be my first Botcon, and I love that it's Animated. I still kick myself for not buying Animated figures when they were out en masse(for some odd reason, I thought that game stuff was more worth spending my money on at that time, because I'm CRAZY).

Botcon toys selling out should be taken as a sign that many of you (I'm not naming names) need to finish watching Animated. At 39 episodes, which go quickly, the show is leagues above anything that came after Beast Machines. This isn't an opinion, it's a fact. By not watching, you are depriving yourself of one the most satisfying story lines in Transformers fiction.

Here, let me help you start at the beginning. The rest is up to you.

Sorry for necroposting, but does anyone remember the time a few board members called Ruined Forever on Botcon exclusives after the Thundercracker thing? Gawd, that was funny.

I didn't go that far. But I will say that as far as BotCon, exclusives, and what we had been told previously; the rules have changed (or where never there to begin with).
