It should have never even escalated to the name calling to begin with.
Simply "I don't like that dude" would have been enough. And in which case, fine. So be it.
We have 3 people to ask legitimate questions to, which has been covered up by the hate- posting.
How are they to even sift through ANY of this for us to get actual pressing answers?
That said. I commend staff for doing as much clean up as they can.

 

No, I don't. BotCon 2004 was unofficial.

 

Thanks, Tony. Glad you're keeping things civil. I hope it stays that way.

 

Gotcha. My brain thought you were speaking chronologically, saw G2 Breakdown, and then thought you mistyped. My bad.

 

If I reserved my patronage to only people who conformed to my points of view of the world, I'd be probably be able to only go to a few places to eat and shop.

 

Easy skip.

 

You see, I'm of two minds about that. On the one hand, I wholly advocate separating the art from the artist. If the product is good, who made it should be a lower priority. On the other hand, if they're espousing what is claimed, and are among those that are affected by such words and thoughts, then it would make sense for that individual to avoid their product. Shy of actually going and acting on what this individual said, it shouldn't be as serious. At the end of the day, they WERE just words. No physical harm or threat posed, just an asshole.

 

That was probably the single best exclusive funpub ever did, I’ll just never be happy with the way the fiction turned out

 

I still solely rest that blame at the feet of IDW.
I really wanted the Uprising story they would have originally planned on giving us.... Or even better; the detailed end of Universe where he was supposed to have made his appearance lol

 

i dont know man 2006 set was pretty great

 

I’d have preferred a proper ending for universe, they gave us one for wreckers afterall, so it’s not like they couldn’t have done it, especially since they were recycling one of 3hs best ideas

As far as sets go I’d say 06 was the best but as far as specific figures it’d be tm3 megatron

 

I have.

I’m not sure what is or isn’t moderated approved content here, but I would never willingly give him money.

 

I hope that the appearance of Apelinq on this Botcon cover is a hint towards an actual exclusive.

 

Would be interesting. Wasn't Apelinq one of the first exclusive characters or something?

 

Apelinq was botcon 1998 or 1999 if I’m not mistaken and then funpub did one from the cybertron primal figure

 

Well yeah, but they did only existing characters like G2 Breakdown until then, right?

Nope, I'm wrong. Botcon ApeLinq was a 2014 figure, and the character was from BM in 2000. Disregard this

 

No, in fact I don’t think they did existing characters till 2001, I remember it being a big deal when they got permission from hasbro to use tigatron and arcee in 2001

 

also in 2014 as well
