BotCon Panel news
The Hasbro panel is likely to get its own news topic, but the rest can probably just be in the one if nothing to exciting gets revealed.
(I'll have my photos and report done when I get home next week though - this is just some quick info)
Club Magazine - 12-1pm Friday
The Beast Wars story will continue into 2014, but in a different setting to this year.
The BotCon comic this year will continue somewhere (maybe the 2014 magazine BW story).
The 2014 comic story will end the "Wings of Honour" Universe, started in 2009.
More Prose stories will return to the Club website, which is expected to relaunch in September 2013.
They are limited to 4 remoulds (or heads) per year for BotCon toys.
Hasbro Publishing - 1-2pm Friday
A digital exclusive TFPrime encyclopedia will launch on Ipad, and hopefully Android soon.
An ultimate pop-up book in October, which has some pop-up characters being able to transform by sliding a tab on the page (they demonstrated it, and it is an amazing feat of engineering - for paper).
30th Anniversary Comic collection will be out in September.
3rd TFPrime book (Retribution) will be out in February. It brings in the Quintessons as the main foe to both sides.
Covenant of Primus - a prototype of the case was shown.
It includes information from the fabled "Binder of Revelation" which is stored in the Hasbro vault.
There will NOT be a cheaper version any time soon, as they haven't got one in the works. So if you are really wanting this book in the next 12 months, you will need to buy the expensive fancy version.
Papercraft Transformers.
A book that has tear-out paper parts, to build 10 3D TFPrime characters. The book also comes with 2 wind-up wheel units to sit them on, to make them move around.
