    Actually, if this is true, it could be Nemesis Prime. In the Alternity continunity he was an Autobot, but 'a former disciple of evil' so it's possible it's Scourge had some sort of life changing event ( I.E. Drift) that turns him into an Autobot Prime always thought he could become, but a bit more ruthless in the process. Something that was hinted at in the Alternity Bio for NP.

    Maybe it's just G2 Prime? It would be a little odd for them to include one of the exclusives on the poster this early...

    If that does end up representing Scourge, then that'll suck, but I'll get over it as I already have the mold.

    Gotta say, though, I'm liking the Ultra Magnus idea. This'll be a great way to release that deco on the toy, and it'd look amazing!

    Not necessarily. They would've had to have locked down the molds to use for next year's exclusive by now, so a production schedule can be set.

    C'mon man... Hasbro isn't stupid enough to allow Fun Pub to use the RTS G2 Prime mold to make Scourge.

    That's Primals head. This set is going to have something to do with reformated Beasts.


    That or it will be RTS moulds. Maybe this will be the way we see Rumble and Frenzy.

    If Scrourge becomes a Botcon exclusive, I'm going to run outside and start flipping cars over.

    If this really does end up being Scourge, the explanation is right there, because of what him and several other posters have been doing the past few months. ;)

    I hope that's not the case. I want the characters I grew up with in stores again, not slaggin botcon items. Getting tired of seeing stuff I would give anything for and not have anyway to have it.

    I do hope for this site its not RID Scourge. I think this place would make Joker look sane if that happened.

    Big Nick, what's the cut-off text at the bottom of the ad say? Is there anything about a BotCon 2012 date or location?
