    That's some pretty cool artwork; almost makes me wish I were getting the box set.

    Who all is that on the box that's NOT in the set?

    I see Thrust and Tracks, but that's all... wondering if there's any hints at attendee toys there.

    Cool, though it's odd that the Heroic Decepticons are on the side of the evil ones, same with the Autobots.

    I see what looks like Botcon 07 Weirdwolf's leg and Dreadwind's arm.

    My guess is that the Shattered Glass 'Bots and 'Cons will be on their heroic/evil counterparts at the start, and then probably switch sides halfway through the exclusive comic.

    One thing I have to say though - Overlord looks pretty good artwise, anyway.

    Nice boxart, too bad the same can't be said for most of the figures in the set.

    Do you really want to trust them with your credit card doubts are in many peoples mind plus this set isn't really worth over the limit fees.

    Very nice. For those wondering, Botcon's twitter said the art and colors were done by Casey Coller and Josh Perez respectively.

    if you look closely, at the top right coner you can see the hook from sg galvatrons arm, and looks like goldbugs arm and maybe sg grimlock on the roof

    I'll try and get the trade comic of this for sure, bit strange having the heroic bots fighting the heroic cons though.

    you sure do love to kiss funpub's ass for no reason don't you

    so glad this continues to look bad in my eyes, makes selling it SO EASY

    the box is beautifully done, but the toys inside look horrible

    I was wondering. Thanks! I'm not a fan of the toys or the theme, but the art is nice.

    I love the box art, hopefully it'll help me sell my boxed set and attendee figure
