TRANSMISSIONS from Cybertron Con - Vote for your favourite model kit!

[TRANSMISSIONS FROM CYBERTRON CON 2012]

Dear Cybertronian Ally,

We have intercepted a plea for support from the Autobots, namely Optimus Primes and Bumblebees. We were surprised too when we transposed the transmission, but after analysis, we have realized that the plea(s) came from the 50 customised Optimus Prime(s) and Bumblebee(s) that are currently on display at the ‘Transformers Re-Imagined’ showcase at the Cybertron Con 2012.

For the un-indoctrinated, this year’s Cybertron Con displays a never before competition where local Singaporean designers and hobbyists have submitted a model kit of either Optimus Prime or Bumblebee that is entirely designed, coloured and even decorated according to their personal interpretation.

According to reliable sources, there is also a voting mechanism where ‘Con’ attendees can pledge their allegiance to their favourite customised model kits by voting for it via the Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/transformerssingapore) where the Liveshare app can be found.

In addition, voting can also be done via the ‘Liveshare’ mobile app(iPhone or Android) that is available for download. Voters need only search for the ‘Transformers Re-imagined’ stream to cast their votes.

There is also a reward for those who have pledged their allegiance to the winning submissions. 3 lucky voters will receive Transformers Product hampers worth up to $100 should their vote be selected.

Winners of the inaugural ‘Transformers Re-Imagined’ showcase will be announced on Wednesday, 14 March (the final day of the Con) at 5pm.

Love them? Adore them? You decide – Pledge your allegiance today.
