Botcon 2011 Toys and then Rumours/News

[LordCyrusOmega]

So all up the Botcon Animated toys consist of:
Toxitron & Sideswipe
Fisitron
Autotrooper (x3?)
Minerva (as Custom)
Were there any others? Might be easier if someone directs me where to find out for myself.

After seeing those pics I really want them. Like really, really, I'd sell my organs and live out my days on life support for them. Don't know why I'm so obsessed. Geez LCO getta grip

Botcon tweet: Club store will not open for those without wrist bands from last night until 2 pm

Registration went well into the night, still going at 1130pm. Looks like they closed the store before midnight and gave the late people wristbands to come back this morning. Means it will be an extra few hours before any of us can even attempt to get any spares.

If you see a good ebay deal "buy it now".

Thats all of the Animated ones. And the Stunticons of course. And Club Cheetor leftovers are on sale here. There is one Autotrooper toy sold in a combo pack of three, but there is no difference between all three, unlike the different tech specs the Sweeps and Sharkticons had in previous years.

I had best start saving my monies then

They were precious years indeed.

Just finished listening to the latest WTF@TFW Podcast and Vangelus was one of those affected; saying he was apparently only 5mins away from picking up his stuff when some organiser came out and said "We're calling it a day".
From the sounds of things, he and many others were not happy about waiting 6 hours in line to be told they'll have to do it all again tomorrow.

Damn autocorrect!

Sneak peak of the Hasbro toy display - doesn't appear to have anything that hasn't already been released or known. (it's a TFW link, so images may not be visible by non-members)

The at-show toys on display (I'll take more myself and post up pics later).

A couple of costumes already - Devastator and Grimlock.
Plus, someone has been driving around a box van painted white with red roof lights and red crosses on the side... Gen1 Ratchet of course.

Dream toys acquired after throwing lots of money at them. (And I 'accidentally' won Toxitron and Sideswipe too with what I thought was a low bid... guess they're the black sheep of the 2011 items). Now back to sleep...

Ha ha. I accidentally won a second set of Autotroopers with a seemingly low bid too.

Guzzle anyone? http://twitpic.com/56ifwf
