New Images of BotCon 2007 Dirge and Thrust

We reported in March that the exclusive BotCon set would include Dirge and Thrust. Since that time we have seen only a few images of the figures. Now there are more photos of the two figures thanks to ebay seller paranooid, who has posted an auction for both figures. Here are the images from the auction:

























More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

*weeps* They're both so awesome. I would love to have Thrust, but he'll probably always remain out of my price range.

They're great figures, no doubt.

However, they're still not worth the price tag that BotCon's organizers are demanding.

I remember having *THE* quintessential bitchfest about these figures and being robbed of my chance to complete...yada yada yada...

I feel like an idiot now. Why?

1.) I can't change things, so no amount of bitching will fix it.

2.) The movie toys have arrived and I just don't give a damn about the rest of my collection anymore. (I will keep them, I'm not totally whacked in the head here.) I've no plans on selling any of my old ones, because they've all got a spot in my heart, they're just no longer as important as the movie figures.

Besides, some ballsy KO'er will most likely rip these suckers off.

Not to mention, only one being a repaint...that's a rip off, period.

I wish I could get these for $10 apeice like the rest of the Classics line...

I wish they made it to retail, but I understand that they'd have hit at a bad time with the movie toys, though I don't see why Hasbro couldn't have dropped them on their Web site as a collector's toy a-la G1 Astrotrain...

My money isn't good enough for Hasbro it seems.

*bawling* WHY GOD?!?!? Every time I look at pics of them, I get sad. It's Hasbro's fault for doing this. I guess I'll just have to save up & get 'em off ebay......or eventually BBTS.........*bawling*
