Yay! I've been waiting for this.

I hope they annouce some thing about some Autobot triple-changers.

Ok so does anyone want to take the time to keep updates in this thread consistent not able to view sol's feed stupid work cpu

11:03 Here we are again, this time with the Botcon 2009 Hasbro Designers Panel

11:07 Okay, we're starting

11:07 Eric, Bill Rawley and Joe Kyde are presenting

11:09 Human Alliance Skids with Mikaela

11:09 Also comes with Arcee

11:09 Skids looks great

11:10 Very articulated

11:10 Arcee is not perfect, she's quite small to fit Mikaela

11:10 [Comment From Lucid Dreamer]
did they show skid's packagin or a pic of the real toy?

11:10 Real toy, looks nice

11:11 Reissue Perceptor does come with the missile launcher, it's just not functional

11:11 Insecticons are shown too

11:11 And onto Animated

11:11 Arcee shown first, we've seen the pics
Some prototype photos, about as tall head to foot as 2007 Movie Bumblebee
11:14 And here's Rodimus

11:14 Same height as Animated Jazz, broad shoulders

11:14 Cybertron mode Ratchet now
Can fit EMP from Lockdown on his arm, he comes with defibulator panels
11:14 Hydrodive Bumblebee, pretty neat

11:14 More of Blackout
11:15 Very close to a cross between his animation model and his Movie form

11:15 Wingblade Optimus
11:16 Parts will fit on the Voyager Optimus as well as the Deluxe one he comes with
11:16 On to the 2010 Movie line

So what panel's are there after this ?

I can't wait for someone to put the pictures up from this

No-one's allowed to take pics or vids

yeah but they leaked last year

Wingblade Prime's armor can fit on Voyager Prime, too? That is so awesome.

..

Mega-siked about leader Starscream and HA Barricade!!

Leader Starscream sounds AMAZING!!!!! I'm so excited to see him! He sounds like Leader Prime quality.

So excited for Movie Lockdown. Going to have to get Deluxe Ratchet now for sure. And dern it, Bludgeon is growing on me. Hip-mounted swords FTW!

Leader Starscream...I will have to see pictures. Not feeling like paying the leader price tag if I dont have to.

When Sol said "Aaron Archer is bringing in a special surprise" I was hoping for some kind of cool toy announcement, not the guy who plays a minor character in the movie.

I'm really excited for Lockdown and Bludgeon, though. Bludgeon sounds like he's going to be incredible.

So Deluxe Movie Ratchet has an EMP Blaster like his Animated counterpart? And Lockdown can use it? Cool.

is starscream sleek?? or troubled with kibble?

Y'know, it's cool that Tyrese is there and taking questions and hanging out, but, um... Hasbro Designers panel, an' all that...

Wish we could see pic's.

No offense to the man, but why is Tyrese there?
He better secretly be either:

A: a hasbro designer

B: A pretender

so movie deluxe ratchet will include the emp weapon from animated and will be compatible with movie lockdown?

OKay, as cool as Tyrese might be, this is the Hasbro Designers Panel. Does Tyrese secretly work at Hasbro or something? Because this is not exactly what I am expecting to hear about.

hmm....50 minutes panel,Tyrese used....at least 10 now.....

My reaction too. Great for those that are there, not so much for us.

Yay! Guess I'll return Voyager Starscream and wait for the Leader.

I donno. I sent Sol a comment asking him and he hasn't responded.

LULZ, Tyreese brought the rain to the designers panel.

So long as Movie Lockdown has the same basic transformation scheme as the Animated one I don't think they can go far wrong.

A Pretender that hides inside an actual moving and speaking human. Now that is a toy worth $100.

I'm guessing the EMP blaster will be in the movie style.
Likely incompatible with the Animated characters.

........... 15 minutes past,nothing about toy design.

I wanna know about Classics 3.0 instead of Mr. Gibson praising RoTF.

This is kind of bullshit, Tyrese hijacking the panel like this.

Wow hasbro way to eat time

Maybe he's stalling?

I thought the movie panel was yesterday!
(he said in a slightly sarcastic tone)

I'm bit annoyed/confused, but mostly it's ok since they already revealed some cool stuff, and Tyrese seems like a cool guy.

Hey Tyrese, what is it like to design for Hasbro? What is your process? Huh? What? But I thought this was...oh...oh, I see.

Yeeeeeah, while I'm sure this is enjoyable enough for everyone sitting there, they DID go into the panel expecting toy discussion... I mean, Tyrese has always struck me as being a pretty cool bloke, but...

(8000 copes of a comic to one store? My arse.)

damn....I dont care what Tyrese is doing now.

Go home Tyrese!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shit thats it? Praying for some leaked photos

amazing tyrese we don't care about your projects right now this is about transformers!

end of the panel!

And now we're not even talking about Transformers anymore.

11:42
And that's the end of the panel


what??!?!?!

Tyrese, you're a cool guy and all, but I do not care if you are Luke Cage or not. I would like to hear about TRANSFORMERS.

edit: END OF THE PANEL?! They hardly told us anything!

Totally seems like he's stalling for something now.

EDIT: Guess not.

o_O

wow, other than the actual transformers stuff, that was a complete waste of my Time!
