In addition to our pics of this year’s Souvenir figures, our news crew also has some in-hand pics of this year’s Botcon boxset exclusives. The set includes Seaclamp from Combiner Wars Scattershot, Ravage from Combiner Wars Breakdown, Ram Horn from Combiner Wars Brawl, Cicadacon from Combiner Wars Skydive, and Tarantulas from Combiner Wars Rook. The five figures combine to form Predacus and the boxset can be picked up at the convention along with the Souvenir figures.
Check out the pics after the jump!

Well with how Leader class figures have shrunk the old Ultra's are probably around the size of most current leader class figures.
Edit: I took a quick picture with Leader Class Magnus.
Hot Shot.
Nope, Ultra Class. There's several scouts in that shot and Beast Wars deluxes typically weren't very tall.

Not leader, the mold itself would be ultra class. That would place it between voyager and leader.

Thanks so much for the pics, I'm guessing he is about 10" which is Leader class Its mostly deluxes in the pics

Hey how big is Megatron, I haven't been able to find any size comparisons in any video reviews

I'll sell you the BM Skydive for that
SG Roadbuster
I think you should sell it to me for 98$

I decided to swap out TM3 Megatron's spark crystal again. I originally swapped it out with a purple Predacon crystal. I wasn't happy with that so I tried an amber vehicon crystal, but there wasn't enough color contrast between the amber and the gold. Then I tried a red vehicon crystal and I really like it. It also matches the bio card artwork better. What do you all think?
Oh and Beast Machines Skydive is keeping his amber Dinobot crystal safe for him.

Sounds like you should have left the wife at home lol that's why I go solo so I don't miss out on shit like I did in 2010

I can't say I'm sour about Megatron seeing as I WAS fortunate enough to be at the con Thursday and get it but I do think FP's run of 850 was too small. A full 1500 as they'd done with past figures would've still sold out.
That said though I doubt what happened with 2016 Megatron will EVER reach the levels of obnoxiously horrible that 2006 Megatron has.

Honestly I'm planning on probably getting an extra Hot Spot and repaint the mold along with making a new head for both the robot and torso mode as Ironhide with an extra Air Raid as Silverbolt and the Dead End/Prowl mold as well Prowl because I think they evoke the BW versions more.

Sure thing, I'll post pics if I do it.

I would also like to see that.
I would have included pictures of the individual members of Magnaboss, but I forgot to get pictures of them before adding a bunch of Reprolabels, and I wanted to show the "official" look.

Slick ideas ^^. Would love to see if you do

So, I know this wouldn't be the "official" configuration, but part of me has thought about picking up and extra Ironhide and Offroad and trying to do a part-swap deal… creating a grey Ironhide to more closely echo his Beast Wars version. Heck, maybe even throw a First Aid into the mix to get red legs. I think the Offroad mold with the Ironhide head and the teal parts swapped out would make a pretty great BW Ironhide.

go outside. repeat until less bitter about such a small event.

Whoa cool and thank you for posting, that actually doesn't look too shabby, may have to get my nephew to apply the stickers on it, he's much better then me at doing that. Will have to get another Silverbolt too, good thing he's still cheap and available.

QFT. I think people need to realize this point and come to grips that FP's decision that Sat was consistent with past Botcons. Sadly it only hurts more now that it in fact sold out and is now commanding such a high premium in the secondary market. It's worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it and I don't fault the FP or the market for dictating what the price is now.
