Looks like I was wrong.... it is the end.

According to Pete's Facebook page, BotCon 2016 is basically going to be a farewell party to FunPub's Transformers elements.

Looks like I might have to make sure I go to BotCon next year... just in case there isn't another one for a while, or at all.

I really hope that Hasbro are planning ahead like they did during the collapse of 3H in 2004 (in which they approached Brian the week before the 2004 Official Convention, with the offer of taking on the license).

(I think I've said enough about FunPub in the past, and people here know what I think of them, so I won't be kicking them while they are down... I am more focussed on what next for us in terms of an officially sanctioned Convention and Hasbro fan-targetted toys, as FunPub was the only source of Hasbro exclusives that weren't released by Hasbro (like SDCC exclusives) - TakaraTomy still has Ehobby, Million Publishing and TakaraTomyMall for collector exclusives.)
