    That icon next to the announcement makes me hope they're planning on releasing another run of Steelcore as well as the trailer.

    I expect for display:
    - Steelcore trailer colored prototype, if not in package
    - production Mindwipe
    - black/white prototype Sixknight
    - some virus repaint prototypes
    - prototype "three kings"?

    For PowerPoint presentation:
    - next Crossfire/Casuality gestalt in art/sketch
    - mote fiction
    - next Warbots, maybe Collector? In more solid pix
    - next Retrofutute project art
    - completely left field surprise project we never heard of that's shockingly close to completion

    I would be surprised if they didn't have Mindwipe FOR SALE that thing has been around in the pipeline forever

    I'm sorta crossing my fingers for another Botcon surprise release of some of their items, like they did last year with Virus and the Glacialbots.

    I'm hoping they'll have Recoiler/Riftshot at their booth in some sort of quantity.

    Mindwipe has taken a long time.

    It might be a good way to get the FP Glacia-Lords or Recoiler/Riftshot for some if they sell them for the same price and don't charge a premium or have an unfriendly conversion rate to Canadian Dollars..

    I'd love them but the postage tips me over the edge into making them to expensive... and they don't tend to be the sort of thing to get semi-cheap afterwards that sometimes happens with other Fansprojects items that had better distribution.

    Maybe they could bring some DF canopies for the retailers to distribute to their needy customers.

    Bring your least favorite shirt to drink in. We get messy.

    I'm glad we get to welcome them back.

    I'm hoping for a Chicago appearance as well. There's still an outside shot I can go to Chicago.

    Project Triplex: Defender Core will be on the PowerPoint presentation, Three Kings will be in one of the A3U detolfs, and Virus Steel Core will be on sale (and sell out within 3 mins of the doors to the dealer room opening).
