A new image gallery depicting the only previously shown Botcon 2010 figure: Spark, has appeared on Photobucket. Spark’s color scheme is clearly based on Generation 2 Pyro, while he reuses Universe/Henkei Inferno’s mold. Even though he loses his gun emplacement, he still has a spring-loaded missile launcher and probably no GPS.

Well it's a little less ugly in bot mode with most of the yellow hidden.

I'm not seeing the pics.

Well I'm thinking whenever Pete has to start coming up with choices for 2011, Generations and Powercore Combiners won't have been released by then.

Not quite, the 07 set had classic figures who had been released way less than a year, but that seems to have been the exception.
I'd say the bigger problem is the lack of new figures in the Generation line up.
I'd bet (and hope for ) animated next year.
Bass X0
Nope. At least a year needs to pass before they can start to use a mold. Those molds will be released later this year. They'll be fine for 2012 but not for 2011.

There'll be Generations and most likely TF: Prime moulds to choose from next year.

just when i thought this toy couldn't be ANY uglier… i swear, there better be a button on it that plays circus music and a bunch of mini-cons dressed as clowns better pop out of him or SOMETHIN.

I dunno, Animated loyalists aren't as nerdragey as Geewunners. Sure they'd be pissed, but I dunno if it'd be the same magnitude. And speaking purely for myself, I hope they do an Animated set at some point, cos I know that'll be a year I save money.

botcon seeker incident all over again.

It was the 90's. EVERYONE wore bright colors.
Also, here are some gay dudes:

They're only helping and being nice because they WANT TO HAVE GAY SEX WITH YOU.
Everyone knows gay people are ALL SCHEMERS, trying to GAY SEX EVERYONE ELSE.
(In case you weren't sure, yes, that was sarcasm)

I've seen the show a few times…the wife used to watch it. I'm not a fan.
As for homosexuals yeah I know a few. I have a neighbor who is blazingly flamboyant both him and his long time partner are soooooo bright in thier color of clothing its sometimes distacting. (Something they take great pride in. Their constantly saying I dress to bland.)
But those dudes are seriously talented when it comes to cooking, and all around great fellows. Their always the first people on our block to offer help with anything needed.
Seriously I never meant to insult any of the gay community my statement was based on the VERY few gay people I am proud to know.
But I do apologize if I did offend, and I have also removed the comment, in case it did.

You've… never actually seen that show, have you? Or any real-life homosexual person*?

Rainbot Brite.
That's hideous.
(Edit for my possible stupidity.)
Shockstorm
So far, to date, these gotta rank right up there as the absolute hidious/rediculous looking figures for such a special event. Why didn't they name the first one rainbow bright? Whewww…money saved here!!!
BigBadBoombox
Wow, i was just checking out KO Toys and Spark's already up for 80 bucks….ouch.
Railguard
Wow, pass.
Jarodimus
Except for that giant pile of Animated molds they have to choose from. *crosses fingers*
Caterwaul
My god, the colors!
They're so HIDEOUS, so RANCID.
It's BEAUTIFUL.

And with the rate they like to let BotCon info trickle out, combined with the fact that the BotCon page is still ghetto style, doesn't even have the links down the side, we don't even have the brochure…they're either going to have to have a faster pace of reveals, or the thieves will have shown us everything before FP gets the chance.
It's less than 3 months away. Pretty soon "preregistration" will mean "show up in Florida an hour early".
I'm hoping they have the new site with the brochure and other information categorized all ready to go, and they just don't want to put it up until the online registration is ready. I think they'd still benefit from putting up the "real" site now with no registration link.
