    That early sketch really goes to show how great the bot design for MP Lio Convoy is! What a super cool event, fantastic that BW2/Neo still gets a lot of love in Japan!

    I am listening to it right now (the first link, there are two), and the only part with no-sound so far it's from 00:48 to 01:15 where they play some of the US themes from the TF movies.

    It's kind of a vehicle, mecha that appeared in the Beast Wars II cartoon. It can open to reveal a motorclycle that can transform into a kind of an hovercraft. It came with an exclusive Ikard figure (Scuba/Claw Jaw repaint).

    Man that Lucky Draw Black Lio Convoy looks gorgeous!

    The more I look at it, the more I think - could it have inspired the color scheme for the super rare Black Super Fire Convoy?

    I was ----- this close to actually snagging that aforementioned Black Lucky Draw CR Fire Convoy many moons ago. Sigh* but that's another story for some other day. :lol 
    Anyway this is a BW 2 Lio centric event.

    What's neat is that color scheme was actually made by a child. Normally a lucky draw is just a standard random drawing, but occasionally Takara decides to do a coloring contest. The 1st place winner gets the toy done up in the winning colors. I believe the second place winners also get a copy of the toy. From what I can tell, the last time they had one was in 2005, when they did one for Robot Masters, and one for Galaxy Force.
