    So it is Arcee from the Blur mold with Titan Master Ultra Magnus. And a Optimus Prime transformable battery pack?

    If you're talking Arcee, the io9 article just said Hascon attendees get early access.

    Is this all the exclusives or might there be more? I was expecting a crossover set (with figures, not cards) involving Transformers and/or GI Joe.

    Headmaster Arcee as a Hascon exclusive is like the ultimate Botcon troll. Well done Hasbro. Thankfully, I bet this goes on HTS.

    Also, I think I will be building a new EDH deck. Oh yes.

    The "MLP" Dragon Dice is funny. They're literally "normal" colored dice (at least, back when I played in the 80s) in a MLP box with an exclusive price.

    I'm pretty sure by "early access" they just mean that it will be tossed up onto HasbroToyShop. I thought Hasbro already announced that the exclusives would end up there.

    Well played Hasbro...

    Hopefully Arcee & Deadpool show up on Hasbrotoyshop so I have a chance at getting them, but they'll sell out before I have a chance.

    I get the feeling getting arcee is going to end up setting me back way more than $30 plus shipping.

    Arcee looks nice. I already have the Generations one, but I really like the look of this one

    Ebay:
    Not a ton of offerings for a fist time convention (so much for a Combiner Wars G2 Defensor), but at least the prices are somewhat reasonable.
    Hopefully will snag an Arcee on HTS...Even if Arcee sells out, buying one on eBay etc. will still cost me less than attending the convention.
