I was thinking it would be a while from now, but wasn't sure how much longer it would be. Hopefully we get some good sneak peaks from the Toronto convention, though that's still a month a way. Any answers out there for my questions about Wreck-Garr?

The Wreck-Garr toy that was shown, did it have open hands? or closed fists? Also, from what you could see, did he appear to have his backpack? Wold be cool to put some different randome things in there for him, lol. Thanks in advance  . | Beastbot X: Quote:

Anyways, can't remember on the fists, sorry. He does have his backpack, though. Honestly, he looks pretty much exactly like he does on the show. I couldn't find any difference whatsoever.

Thats cool. I was hoping he would retain his backpack. I have one last question (that I can think of anyways) about Wreck-Garr. Was his prototype just shown in bot-mode, or was there one in alt-mode too? I was looking at his bot-mode the other day, and from what I've heard of his toy, it sounds as if his alt-mode will be neglected a bit to make the bot-mode more show-accurate. I'll still most likely get him though.

I was hoping that both of his modes would look great, instead of one being sacrificed for the other. Can't wait to finally see pictures of him.
Fort Max:
Wreck Gar sounds slick, I look forward to seeing it.
khangster222:
did anyone who went to Botcon sneak a few photos of blurr or shockwave?
Silent_Magnus:
It's only a couple of weeks till comic-con. The pictures will probably be available to the public,
so just wait until then.
