2005 boards member S250 has posted new images of what might be a Botcon 2010 exclusive Firecon(the 1st report of this figure surfaced here); a repaint of the Beast Wars 10th Anniversary Megatron! S250 has mentioned that the clear parts remind him of the G2 Firecons.
Firecon? Something else? Hit the title bar to see for yourself!

Wow, he's crazy. This mold is wacky. Pretty complex for a deluxe, yet the shortcomings (literally his arms) are a bummer.

If I'm not mistaken they specifically chose obscure characters with no modern homages or fiction, the whole point of this set is to take advantage of forgotten characters. G2 was never the point of the set, it was just meant to be G2 in spirit, which it clearly is.

If you're going to call G2 Ramjet a "clear fan favorite", it undermines your point to screw up his name.

What happened to such clear fan favourites as G2 blue Grimlock or G2 purple/teal dirge? The more I look at this set, the more disappointed I am at the jarring colours that seem like they come from a kid's colouring contest.
Some homages are not meant to be made.

^Love the clear parts on this thing!

Bah, tell it to Wyatt.

The robot mode reminds me of the Gobot combiner Monsterous – Monsterous – Renegade – http://www.tfu.info

That is, without a doubt, one of the most outstanding paint jobs I've ever seen one a figure. It's almost ice personified! I'm really looking forward to this one!

Can't let one fan have TOO much canon attached to them!
Of course, if "Susan" had taken off, I would have a different opinion on the matter.

The more I think about it, the more I hope this is indeed Cindersaur! Not only has the character grown on me in recent years, but it'll also be fun having a Firecon toy that doesn't suck!
SPLIT LIP
That's so fruity I love it. The translucent plastic is a surprise.

My eyes! They burn!
I actually kinda dig this more now knowing that it most likely isn't Grimlock! Yeah for obscure characters!
Dinobot Nuva
Obviously because its blue.
Beastbot X
…Darn, I guess it's not Beast-Bot.
Aw well, I'll luv it anyways.

Those colors are very sharp. I love this for how kooky it is.
Cindersaur seems to be the answer.
Ooh, nice catch!
And there's the fact that he's, y'know, a dinosaur.
They already did pre-beast Waspy in 2006.
It's "jibe".
I hate to nitpick, but this is a pet peeve. (I have quite a few, it seems.)

Looks like a decepticon fruit basket…but in a good way.

They didn't want to do Scout sized toys.
Of course, they didn't have to do Cindersaur either and gone with a mold that more suited someone else.
I would have looked at this as "we want to use the BW10th Megatron mold, what character would best suit it" rather than "we want to do a new toy for Cindersaur, which mold would best suit him".
