    Default FunPub/BotCon unused toy concepts & art

    FunPub (the collector club/botcon company) have posted up some unused art and failed exclusive toy pitches, on their deviantart site.
    And it is said that they will be posting up some more soon as well.

    Two interesting ones there so far are a Gen1 First Aid from Cybertron Red Alert (which they used for Kup in 2010), and a Gen1 Fangry from Beast Machines SavageNoble.

    I can see why they were cancelled. Don't care much for that Red Alert idea or Fangry.

    First Aid's boring but Fangry is... actually pretty cool. I wouldn't buy it, but it's cool.

    I agree, I don't mind that Fangry at all.

    But TransTech Depth Charge, *sigh*, what could have been...

    TRANSFORMERS: DEICIDE -- The Beast Wars 20th Anniversary Comic Book series that could have been...
    TRANSFORMERS: UNITY -- the BotCon 2016 Comic Book that should have been...

    Wow, the First Aid concept image is lazy!

    Fangry would have turned out alright, but would there be enough fan interest in that figure?

    Transtech DepthCharge would have been awesomesauce.

    I would be all over a G1 Fangry figure just not that one.

    Were those 2 images taken down? They're not showing up on that link.

    That seems strange. But fortunately Seibertron mirrored them here.

    They posted on twitter why they removed them:
    @BotCon: Not gonna post anymore "awful" concept pitches. Leads to too many "Please make this requests". Apologies. Thought it would be cool but... It just gets too sticky. Ah well. Sorry all...

    Yeeesh, that Fangry is bad! The First Aid though is one they really should look at doing- even if they have already used the mold for Kup.
