With a peculiar choice of timing, as a lot of people not in the US are probably still/already celebrating the arrival of the New Year, the official BotCon Twitter account and the official website have 'revealed' this year's theme for the convention exclusive set. It looks like you'll be hunting for Cybertron's Most Wanted in 2015 - a set of supposedly five figures nicknamed The Thief, The Muscle, the Loose Cannon, The Bounty Hunter and The Boss!

Dairycon 2015 Exclusive Revealed!

Excelsior, Moo Believers!

It's here! The first epic pictorial reveal of the DAIRYCON 2015 EXCLUSIVE WINDBREAKER has been released:

Not to be outdone, we've also discovered his bio:

DTF, The Dairyland Transfan Association

Allegiance: Dairycon
Name: Windbreaker SBD
Function: Crack Patrol
Quote: "Pull my finger!"

Profile:
Windbreaker has never met a joke he didn't like, and of course, fart jokes are his favorite of all. Nicknamed "SBD" (Silent But Deadly), Windbreaker is very popular among his allies. His jokes keep his comrades loose on the battlefield, and entertained when off duty. Windbreaker is a lover of anything that can be called retro, so much so that he upgraded his alt mode to a classic 1970's Trans Am and installed a record player and a mini disco ball. Can often be seen speeding down the highway at night, his disco ball shining through his windows. Tends to overuse some classic words and phrases, especially exotic terms for, and relating to, flatulence; "Barn-Burner," "Booty-bomb," "Fire in the hole," etc.

Abilities:
In robot mode Windbreaker carries an incendiary acid rifle whose explosive blasts can dissolve the strongest materials on contact. In vehicle mode, the noxious fumes given off by his malfunctioning catalytic converter can interfere with other bots targeting systems and incapacitate most organic life forms. Windbreaker is among the fastest of all Dairycons. On flat terrain his speed can even create a sonic boom...of sorts...disorienting his enemies and occasionally his allies.

Weaknesses:
Human allies have been known to faint or feel lightheaded in close proximity to Windbreaker. His robotic brethren often disable their olfactory sensors around him due to his catalytic converter problem, leaving them vulnerable to certain types of chemical attacks that they would otherwise detect. His disco ball occasionally gives away his position during battle. Calling out different code names for his 'lethal weapon' don't always win him friends. "Hey! I got yer Target-Moo-ster right here!"

WOW! This is definitely a toy 15 years in the making! Only DAIRYCON could have brought you this!

PREREGISTRATION is Now Open for Dairycon 2015!

Dairycon 2015 has been announced for March 27 and 28 2015. Check out the announcement below for all the information.

Excelsior Moo Believers!

We've reached another huge milestone, as this year is Dairycon's FIFTEENTH Anniversary!

It's going to be big, folks. They've been building to it for 15 years. You *know* they have something special in-store for us. Those folks behind the longest-running TF Fancon never disappoint....

You're excited, you're wanting to learn more, you want to check it out for yourself... But, when can you partake of this cheesy goodness?!?!

How does March 28TH, 2015 sound?!

You read it here, folks, Dairycon 2015 is scheduled for Friday, March 27th and Saturday, March 28th, 2015!!

DAIRYCON 2015
March 27-28th, 2015
Retlaw Plaza
Fabulous Fond Du Lac, Wi

REVEALED HERE, FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER:

THE BARN DOOR'S OPEN AND THE HEFFER IS OUT OF THE BARN! DAIRYCON IS GOING TO ALLOW WALK-INS FOR THE 15TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION! THE WORLDS LONGEST-RUNNING TRANSFORMERS FANCON IS FINALLY GOING TO LET THE REST OF US SEE WHAT THEY'RE ALL ABOUT!

I'm sorry about that folks, but I can't tell you how exciting that is. Dairycon has required a Pre-Registration to this private party for *years* now, and the one thing I've always wanted to do is share it with the rest of my friends - to give them a glimpse of why this is so special. You've seen the online posts, you've seen the pictures, you understand the humor in what they do... - A few very lucky few of you have been lucky enough to hold one of the coveted Dairycon exclusives in your hands! Well guys, now you have a chance to see it all *in-person*. You can just walk right in and see for yourselves why this show is so special, why Dairycon has been around for 15 YEARS!

There's more - a *lot* more - but I'm just too excited right now. This is a big deal for Dairycon, as they've worked hard on making Walk-Ins a possibility for some time now! I'll leave you with *that* bombshell, and give you the next big updates in the follow-up posts. You won't believe it. *I* don't believe it.

But it's true.

NOW EVEN MORE THAN EVER - MAKE MINE DAIRYCON!!!
