Posted on the Transformers Club site is a commercial for BotCon, done in the same style as last year's online Ad, copying the script of the Gen2 cartoon's opening credits.

Now who doesn't think that one of the BotCon toys this year won't be a G2 Ramjet? The mould is there, and is one of only 2 Gen2 toys that was ever animated (in the cartoon opening) - it NEEDS a toy.
Should have been in the boxset though. If it's the attendee toy, it will sell for hundreds.

(The commercial pronounces 'redux' as 'redoo' - if that's how its pronounced, I never realised it)

I really hope that Ramjet isn't one of the convention only toys.
It would make him REALLY expensive. The Classics mold is already up there on price in the secondary market.

As cool as a G2 Ramjet would be, I assume they're just redoo(:p)ing the G2 opening and not necessarily releasing Ramjet, since I thought they had a rule of not using the same mould at more than one BotCon.

They haven't used Ramjet at Botcon (Dirge and Thrust were remolds)

Um... Dirge isn't a remould, Zippo, it's the Ramjet mould painted blue and called 'Dirge'.
