TFcon 2012 Exclusive Shafter Reviews

Posted on 07-09-2012 at 02:55 PM by Sol Fury under Conventions
TFcon 2012, Canada's Transformers convention, is just a few short weeks away. This year's exclusive is Shafter, a hardy little robot who never fails to rise to any challenge. A redeco of iGear's Rager, he's the subject of two special sneak-peek advance reviews by Peaugh and Vangelus. Like their reviews? They are hosting a fan-made media panel at the convention where you can learn a few tricks of the trade!

TFcon 2012 takes place over the weekend of July 27th to 29th, 2012 at the Delta Meadowvale Resort and Conference Centre in Mississauga, Ontario. Be sure to let them know you're from TFW and share plenty of pictures with us!

Check out the videos below!

Awesome stuff all around. From the box art, to the little pistols. Really looking forward to this little dude.

Shafter and Panty would make a great team.

This is why Hasbro cancelled their panel at TFcon. They told you guys to cool it with the Erector business and then you go and throw this 3rd party boner reference in their face.

You've hit the nail on the head. The head of the penis. They have CLEARLY cancelled it because of a penis joke, because Hasbro HATES DICK JOKES.

Also, looking forward to holding my Shafter in my hands.

TFcon should stand firm when it comes to 3rd-party convention exclusives!

Did Hasbro really pull out TFCon due to the Shafter business? They should've come anyway, Shafter or not.

BTW... Vangelus... did you by chance count how many dick jokes are in your video?ROFLMAO

Thank God Panty is not in her Pantybot Commander form. Shafter would never be able to keep it up with her Skills.

Too bad it costs so much, I'd have bought on at Rager prices.

Great Homage. I still think it needs a trailer.

Well no wonder Hasbro pulled from TFcon, they totally got shafted.

That boxart is a hard act to follow!

We as a community must erect a flag in the 3rd party's honour and stand attention.

A number of these posts have gotten a rise out of me, I must admit.

I for saw the heavy load of Dick jokes in Vangelus' video, I knew he would either go that way or reference Shaft.
Superquad7
Both of these videos are great, but wow @ that the mini story with voices and stuff from Vangelus' video. VERY cool stuff
Kantus Prime
Amazing that Hasbro is ok with genital references........

Raging Shafter?

What? There were penis jokes? I didn't hear any.

I heard references to throbbing and pumping. But in no way did I hear any thing about a penis.

Today I earned how many dick inuendos can be made in 5 minutes. Great reviews guys, thanx for the laughs.

Good review, I added it to the Shafter wiki page.

There is a store on eBay selling them for $40 and free shipping, so I had to order one. Looking to getting a Shaffer in hand.
