BotCon 2010 toy speculation

[BigPenney]

I would love to see Hooligan but I don't know what mold could be used, maybe Cybertron Thundercracker or Energon Starscream (although that was used a couple of times last year).

Not exactly G2 but I would love a AM Thundercracker repaint.

[dirge]

Could happen kup - Pyro's not exactly G2 either.

The news of a Glyph redeco of Classics Bumblebee (with G2 Breakdown at BotCon this year) - if they had a theme one year of past BotCon Characters, like a reunion of sorts, I think it could make an interesting story, and probably some nice homage toys. Or could even give us toys of characters that missed out on toys first time around (like Cataclysm, who was a great red herring for BotCon 2000).

Generation 2 - Redux!* Convention Set:

A five-figure boxed set which includes Autobot Spark, Streetwise, Clench, Breakdown, and Skybyte

The brochure is out if anyone wants to review it

[Ode to a Grasshopper]

Any guesses on which mold is going to be used for Sky-Byte? The only one that springs to mind for me is Energon Sharkticon.

[iceburn]

but EN Sharkticon has already been used last year

[griffin]

My guesses...

Streetwise - Universe/Henkei Prowl or Alert (if Streetwise is revealed to be a non-Gen2 colour scheme, it pretty much guarantees a Gen2 Sideswipe figure this year, as both toys were black and red)

Clench - Deluxe Armada Optimus (Clench is a nosed truck, like Movie Optimus, and the last nosed truck I can think of that hasn't been used by FunPub yet is Armada Optimus)

Skybyte - Energon Sharkticon (would be surprised if they use something else)

[optimus1]

I'm really hoping for a G2 Sideswipe - perhaps in an extra 2-pack with something else??

As for Clench, I hope it would interesting if the didn't use Armada Prime as griffen suggest. I wouldnt know what other mold they would use

I'd love to see the G2 Dinobots as repainted Animated - but would not know what colours they would use for Swoop
