BC12 panel - Collector Club
(pics to be added later - check the global fansites until then)
Showed their usual creation process for this year's convention exclusives and packaging.
Junkions were originally planned to be Sharkticon colours, but story later prompted them to go with an Insecticon theme.
Figure Subscription Service
A new system to replace the 2-per-year exclusives that sell out within hours at odd hours...
This one guarantees the figures, as they will produce toys to meet demand.
Probably need to be a member though.
No price-points known yet, but will start up within a month or two, as soon as they sort out their online store issues. (and roll it out with the GIJoe club first).
People can either pay in full or in installments - toys would be shipped in blocks to save on shipping costs. So, one may be released each month, but would only be shipped out every 3- 6 months (if selected).
No boxes, just bagged, to save cost & shipping.
The first six were shown, but the order of release will be a surprise.
(first five on the list are Deluxe size, last one is Ultra size)
(Gen1) Breakdown - using Classics Sideswipe mould
(Actionmaster) Jackpot - using Animated Jazz mould
(RiD) Scourge - using Classics Gen2 Optimus mould
(Animated) Slipstream - using TFPrime FE Starscream mould & new head
(Actionmaster) Circuit - using Movie Lockdown mould
(Beast Wars) Ultra Mammoth - using JP BW Big Convoy mould
Also shown was the 2013 Membership figure.
Depth Charge - using the Dlx Movie Terrordive mould
Date & Location of BC13 has not been decided yet, so can't say.
