    I'd imagine similar to the unused Animated Ironhide earth form from the Almanac. Guess I'll have to wait and see. Love that design though.

    I wish they gave descriptions. They said Vector looks like his Cybertron version. But no details on Liege or Megatronus or Solus.

    Solus Prime is the female member of the thirteen. Cool.

    Vector Prime is more like the Cybertron version, but gold with a red cape, beard, and even more knightly armor elements.

    Oh okay cool. I had asked if Liege looked like the version from Simon's Alignment comic but they weren't familiar with it I think.

    And the Breakdown look-alike we saw at the beginning of BotCon is jsut a custom character for the game.

    Meh. As long as Prowl and Barricade eventually make it into the show and get toys, I'll be happy.

    No new toys shown, it's Q&A now. Boo. Worst BotCon ever.

    TFP Ironhide is sounding really cool. Can't wait to see how he looks in the show, and find out who voices him.

    Looks like my guess was right. Still a really cool looking bot, and there's always the chance that Prowl and Barricade might end-up in the show at some point.

    LOL. TFPrime Arcee is blue because Hasbro's trying to break away from the girl colors stereotype, yet Solus is pink/purple.

    No, seriously, this BotCon is a gigantic Hasbro failure. They failed to advertise new Movie figures (beyond what was already known), only showed a handful of new Prime toys, and gave no solid info on Generations.

    3rd parties stole the show from Hasbro this time. And with reason.

    Sounds like someone's trying to tell the TF guys how to do their job in regards to story. They really need to start screening questions for efficiency and so they can actually answer some.

    You...you do know hasbro doesnt organize botcon right? They just show what they have if they have it? Paramount put an embargo on movie stuff. Sucks but you have to Deal with it.
