    RIP Animated - You Shall be Missed.

    No Animated Red Alert, Strika or Cyclonus either...But at least we'll finally have a good car Arcee.

    Let us hope that future toys are made from the possible IDW continuation of the Animated series in comic form.

    (Not confirmed, by IDW is apparently trying to nut out a deal)
    Looking For: Wreckers Saga TPB Collection (with Requiem)

    im really hoping that the next 'animated cartoon style' are kinda one-off episodes of the minibots not explored in the animated cartoon (were in the crowd), if the new series does use the animated cartoon style it could blowup in their faces kinda like beast machines
    Wanted items:
    eHobby Orion Pax and Dion

    The toys were shown in the powerpoint display (no photos allowed) but the toys were not present in the booth so no photos.

    One of the many reasons in attending botcon is you have first glimpse of upcoming toy releases. Need to save for it next time.

    can't wait for the full botcon write-up, little details from the presentation help form a mental image of the final toy in my head
