Without a doubt, the least creative idea for a Botcon convention set ever, but at least a boxed five-pack of Stunticons will be an impressive display piece.
I very much want one of these sets
it would be interesting if they can combine....
Makes me wonder what the attendee-exclusive and other sets will be. Aerialbots maybe? Starscream into Silverbolt? Ah, the joys of speculation.
Woah, I really wasn't expecting anything like this at all! Imagine if they announced TFA Series 4 at Botcon and Menasor saw the introduction of Gestalts to the show. *keeps dreaming* :p
Really hope the boxset displays some kickarse artwork showing a fully combined Menasor battling it out with Omega (or Lugnut Supreme, lol)...Damn life is good. :D
Dammit!!! I was happy that Animated was this years theme cause i was just going to pass the lot and save my money and now they do this to me Animated Stunticons now i have to get them
I'm glad that the five Stunticons will be in the same box, rather than one or two being in the bagged toys. I wasn't too sure if I'd get the box set this year but this is a set I am keen on.
hehe, I was waiting to see your reactionQuote:

The Animated Stunticons would be awesome but as all Botcon products, severely expensive...:(:(:(
I dunno, the Club's already giving us one yellow Blurr (Cheetor), I don't know if they would make another one. I do like Wreck-Gar as Motormaster though.Quote:

I'm a bt dissapointed at no Hasbro colours Blackout, Hydrojet Bumblebee or Wing Blade optimus, but at least the convention comic will be neat!

eh should be new molds:p
car mode looks like it has eye lashes lol very girlie
Might have to get me some Botcon toys. I love Animated. I think this will make a good first set to getQuote:

Prime in Motormaster colours is in the Allspark Almanac, but none of the other Stunticons are. They could use a new deco for a different toy but a Prime repaint is probably more likely than a leader toy).
Well this is my first and possibly only Botcon, and as much as I'm not a huge Animated fan, I have a few of the figures and I really like the engineering.
I think a Stunticons box is a great idea and like everyone else here is my prediction set:
MotorMaster: Prime or Ultra Magnus repaint. (Preferably magnus)
Drag Strip: Rodimus
Dead end: we know is Jazz
WildRider: Blurr
BreakDown: Samurai Prowl or possibly Arcee
As much as I'd love to see this motley crew combine, the scales are all out of kilter. though a combine mechanism set would make an awesome third party mod.. hint hint fans project;)
Hanging to see what else they come up with.
Hey, anyone here at all going to Botcon this yr???? I'll be there from the 1st of June to the 5th. If anyone wants to link up there, u noe, represent Australia, let me know. And quickly, what is everyone's thoughts on the exclusive this year, the Animated Stunticons??? Dead End looks sweet but I wonder what the rest will look like? Also, does that mean the other collectables will be combiner teams as well? I wonder the they will make a Leader class Megatron into Whirl??? Hell, they turned Ultra Magnus into Roadbuster didn't they??
Next...

Not who I thought
Makes sense to me, the hood shape is closest...Quote:

Interesting, I wonder who Wikdrider will be based on?Quote:

Is there any reason why he has that odd background for his Decepticon symbol?
Dead End has it too. It's the Animated Stunticon insignia.Quote:

What i hopefully think they could use:
Lockdown mould for Wild Rider????
Blurr mould for Drad Strip??
Voyager Optimus for Motormaster? - appears more likely
There's an idea...Quote:

Nice looking figure too. ;):)
Or Bulkhead as Motormaster? That's one people wouldn't see coming.Quote:

Blurr would make a better Drag Strip than Wildrider (but Blurr is already being turned yellow for Cheetor). Looking forward to the further reveals!
With the way things seem to be going, that is an entirely plausible suggestion IMO - Motormaster is really the only character I care to see out of this set, Nemesis Prime has nothing on this Original Badass! :DQuote:

I reckon Oil Slick, Lockdown and Bulkhead or Prime for remaining molds.
it's a personal wish, but I don't think people would see Ultra Magnus as motormaster... really would be better as Onslaught though.Quote:

As much as I don't like Animated, this new figure does look cool, and does evoke Breakdown pretty well.
I want them to use Arcee and give her a new head. I want a girl Stunticon.
I await the lewd innuendos from the community if they name a female Transformer 'Wildrider' or 'Drag Strip'.Quote:
