From this section you can browser through all of the possible tags that may have been assigned to a news story. The number of stories tagged to each tag appears within brackets after the tag name. E.G Megatron (456) means that 456 news stories have been tagged with the phrase "Megatron". To navigate, simply use the top bar to browse by the first character of the tag phrase.
Part three of our January "Build-up to BotCon" features a hand painted sample of the unreleased BotCon Wreckers Rotorbolt figure.
Rotorbolt was a repaint of the Beast Machines Vehicon Obsidian toy, but
was never intended to be issued as a convention exclusive. This was
handpainted by a former lead deco artist from Hasbro and is the exact
toy pictured on the BotCon Web site at
http://www.botcon.com/archive/story/characters/catalog.html.
We've updated out previously small (2 images) gallery of the currently unreleased BotCon Wreckers Alpha Trion toy with 44 more images.
The gallery now comprises of the only full image gallery of this toy on the web, as it features the hand painted sample made for 3H, and never put into full production.
The timing of the gallery is perfect, with the BotCon 2009 toys believed to be comprised of the remaining BotCon Wrecker team, of which Alpha Trion was their leader.
Alpha Trion is featured along side Beast Machines Snarl and an all white testshot of Beast Machines Snarl (of which Hasbro put the legs on backwards).
