So... I take it the G1uppers Menasor is dust in the wind? All that hype for nothing...

I want to know more about that Batformer, and I want to know what the deal was with Croctimus Prime. Do want.

Smart move by the organisers to share up the slides, makes the inevitably oddly-angled photography of washed out screens redundant, so kudos to them for a bit of thought. Hasbro & Takara should take note.

The Crocodile Optimus is a reference to the episode City of Steel, where the Constructicons stole Optimus Prime's body and made it into a robot alligator. I think I heard the sktech was more a joke, Fansproject will release it in Skullcruncher colors, but I think fans WANT the Optimus recolor.

this looks like an all out assault on Hasbro's IP. I like the Warbug the most

Yeah, but how many of those toys are things Hasbro is actually making as toys this year? About nothing.

You know as happy as I was when they announced Novalord(Overlord), 21 inches is just too big, like someone else said, why not go for Metroplex or Trypticon if you want to produce a transformer that big. I'm just hoping that the height was misreported for Nova.

So Nova Lord isn't a Duocon? Or even a Triple Changer? BTS, you fail. What is the point?

I insist... there must have been a typo and they meant 12 instead of 21. I refuse to believe they are planning a Fort Max sized Overlord. No way
