I doubt it. This seems like it's going to be one of the desirable sets thanks to Scorponok, Devcon, and Ginrai(who's a lot more popular than I expected). Probably Games of Deception popular($700 or so on eBay) more than Shattered Glass popular($1000+), though.

Scorponok alone will probably sell for half the cost of the set.

Yeah, buying Cannonball will be cheap. Ferak will be semi-cheap but don't forget the minicon/micron factor. The other three will destroy your wallet if you wait for secondary.

Hello Everyone!
We are still shooting for registration to go live this week. It won't be today so rest those refresh keys!
Please make sure you read the FAQs before we start registration!
See you in Pasadena!

Yeah, gotta jump on it right away to get into the tours and such as well. And with only 250 bagged sets this year, going to have to jump in quick to get any of those as well. I'm hoping it goes smoothly.
I've also gotta say, while it still isn't as good as "It will go live this day at this time", the fact that they're communicating this at all this time around is a huge improvement. Used to just come out of the blue.

Also, there's fewer non-attendee sets, so I'm stalking to absolutely makes sure the Rod and I get ours. There's a lot of people looking to grab the non-attendee package from what it looks like.

^ No numbers released for it, but I don't imagine it'll be super tough to get. Lots of folks gambling that the price will be less on ebay later on (I do not think that's a good idea).

Pretty sure those who are waiting are just shy from what happened last year.
I'll tell you what though since I'm not going to botcon I'll probably wait till the hype dies down to get the souvenir sets.

Yes, please do. I am really looking forward to that Ginrai, it's looking more and more bad ass every time I look at it. Ferak and Tornado are cool, too. Also, I wonder how hard it will be to get a hold of that Tidal Wave, if indeed that's who will be in the troop-building 3-pack.

And that she won't be too expensive on the secondary market.

I'd like it even more if they would have just marketed this set as a classics set. Get rid of the silly theme and made up faction symbols. I'm very thankful Scorponok & Devcon were made that way.

I'm not interested in their fiction either. I've tried, just can't get into it.
Yes, I do.
Yeah, i see your point. Cannonball works for sure. I'd be more ok with Ginrai if the symbol on the wind-vane wasn't so big. I get they were going for the shield look but man is it huge. I'd been more accepting of the knight symbols on his shoulder & a regular bot logo on the "shield." Then it could be more of like a cop's badge or a Rodimus star instead of him screaming, "hey!!! I'm a knight, see!" Haha.

Now that is a great looking box! I'm still not a fan of Ferak and Ginrai and I'm on the fence about Cannonball, but my buddy Robby's artwork here looks absolutely amazing. He is truly one of the all-time great Transformers artists. This box is a HUGE improvement over the 2009, 2011 and 2013 sets.

More BotCon 2014 news comes in, and we're still on the artistic streak. After the exclusive set box art reveal earlier, the Botcon Twitter account has shown a picture of the official 2014 convention t-shirt, featuring Scorponok! Check it out below.

I've been F5'ing as hard as my fingers and keyboard will allow and I have tabs open for Botcon's Facebook and twitter to check any updates.
Today has been less than productive.

Fire Guts Ginrai
What a great name. I mean, forget Optimus Prime. Why would you want a subpar name like that when you could have Fire Guts. I wonder if its a nickname, like Tommy "Fingers" Magee or Johnny "Shades" Waters?

Ginrai makes me wonder though, is he:
1) a Transtector (originally meant for Optimus Prime) given life by a human
2) a born Transformer, but a sufferer of Primus apotheosis
