Botcon Box sets SOLD OUT!!!

Peaugh · 02-25-2008, 01:08 PM

Just got this email from Angie:

"No, I am sorry we did limit these to 1 per person and we have
officially sold out today. Thank you."

Good for the club, bad for anyone who waited.

I get the feeling a lot of these boxes are going to end up on eBay, because they've yet to say they've run out of space at the con despite all the boxsets being sold out @_@;

Wow, this year's set sold out really fast. Hopefully there will be a plethora of loose figures on eBay shortly after Botcon.

Yeah, thankfully I've already secured myself a loose set from a fellow board member so I can nab the figures I want (Grimlock, Prime) and sell the others, and he's nabbing me the at con figures as well. So I'm good, but still, if I could have upgraded to a boxed set, that would've been nice.

"You snooze, you lose", right?

Oh well, I wasn't planning on getting one of these anyway.

It was a little too much money for me, and it might even be iffy if I can save up enough money to even go to Botcon this year.

I'm inclined to agree. Last year we were on our 4th hotel when the sets sold out. I have a feeling we are seeing multiple set purchases by more and more people.

It'll be sad if it's a pretty empty show with a not a lot of $$$ spent in the dealer room because everybody is broke until their Ebay auctions end...

Wow, good news for the club, not so much for a lot of us.

I got my box set and I will be purchasing multiple attendee only exclusives. Last year the figure I wanted the most was Alpha Trion. I hope Megatron and the other attendee only exclusives are as good as Alpha Trion. If I can find one, I'll purchase an extra loose set.

thats awsome! I mean for the club. I am glad I got mine.

hmm if that is true dealers will drop prices to sell inventory so good for me. I will be hunting a japaneese classics megs, mp megs, encore skylinx, and any other G1 deals/parts I want
