Fun Publications have posted a new panel from the Botcon 2011 comic, the Stunti-con Job, on their Deviant Art Account. In this panel Fun Publication’s own Transtech Cheetor is reunited with Transformers Animated Rattletrap, aka Rattrap. But the two Maximal expy’s are hardly getting along as well as they did back in Beast Wars!

I hope rattletrap is going to be a repaint of animated prowl with a new head (that is if he gets a toy) because:
1. Hes based off of Dawn of futures past rattrap who turns into a motorcycle
2. Rattletrap is lanky and so is animated prowl
So to me he just fits perfectly with animated prowl better than any other animated mold out there IMO

Is there anything Matere can't draw? Box art , comics, robot heroes, kids books, movie adaptations, the list goes on and on. That man is one talented mofo.

Every time I hear the world Botcon. I get excited.

I was fearing that would be true. If so, I'd be forced to shell out another few 100 for a botcon fig.
well played XD
@BotCon hinted that it was a derogatory nickname for Rattletrap given by Cheetor. Apparently the word 'rat' has the same connotation on Cybertron as it does here, even if organic life doesn't exist there.

I've gotta say, Marcelo was DEFINITELY the right choice for this comic.

I have a really hard time believing that they would make a rattletrap toy considering Animated rattletrap is based off the Botcon "dawn of futures past" rattrap toy. they wouldn't do that toy again, so it'd have to be a repaint of something else, and there are so many other repaints/remolds that would work better for the club store.
Randy!

if they made a rattrap to sell through tfclub I'd have to join.

Looks great! Can't wait to see the TFA story continue

Why does the DA page say Rattrap? The guy's name is Rattletrap.
Rattletrap looks nothing like Swindle.

Cheetor looks like hes a dom top…poor rattrap
Kaijumaster
Swindle, look at his legs in the picture. my question whos the seeker in the background?
Lumpy
sweet… i also cannot wait to get this and read it.
OhSlag!
I would love it but with Botcon, it would have to be a repaint of an existing figure with a new head. What would they repaint? Maybe Bumblebee?
Kaijumaster
Wouldn't that be 34? *rimshot*
I'm really hoping that this Cheetor figure is the beginning and the end of Animated BW characters, my wallet can't take it if the do Botcon 2006 Animated Redux.

Perhaps Animated Rattrap is a bonus Botcon figure?
An Army of Bees
I can think of 30 good reasons.

Poor Rattletrap always seems to get caught.
Hope I'll be able to get my hands on this comic!
tehKOREANdude
