Excelsior Moo Believers!
With only three weeks until Pre-Registration for Dairycon 2011 closes, we have another exciting Dairycon exclusive! Some of you may recall one of our earlier reveals where we hinted at the REINFORCEMENTS FROM DAIRYCON: http://dairylandtransfans.webs.com/2010fig3.html
Well, we wanted to introduce you to the first figure in the six years-to-complete line, WANNABEE!
Reinforcements from Dairycon: WannaBee!
Allegiance: Dairycon
Name: WannaBee
Function: Construction Support
Quote:"Let's GO, Team!!"
Profile: Though his original designation was 'Big Bucket', those who know him have coined his current, slightly derogatory name. WANNABEE imagines himself a leader; he's always ordering others around him into battle. Though he idolises larger Autobots such as Prowl and BumbleBee, and strives to emulate them, he falls well short of the mark. WANNABEE is the quintesential, 'B-team' player. Though he senses he is destined for something greater, he is unable to asertain what exactly it might be...
Abilities: WANNABEE excels at building (and rebuilding) fortifications. Broken concrete, shattered glass, you name it. He is usually called in to repair damaged human settlements after a particularly nasty Autobot/Decepticon battle. His ability to blend into the local enviornment is quite good.
Weaknesses: Overactive cheerfulness does not mask his distinct inability to be a leader. Some follow him simply to shut him up. Usually the first to be shot at in battle. Often bickers with his twin brother POSER; arguments and lack of ability seem to be at the Nexus of his problems.
This series is a line of figures that will be running concurrent with the Mainline Dairycon offerings. Nominally considered to be a 'Members-only Exclusive' (as you need to clip and save Moo-Points from various Dairycon events that members attend), regular attendees have a chance to acquire the yearly figures as well (by attending the Show, and winning various Dairycon Games, such as the Name that Transformer Contest.)

First Gen shares an interesting find with us about what the next reveal for the Botcon 2011 set will be. We already know it's an Animated to based set, and we have already seen Dead End, so Stunticons are assumed. Here's what First gen had to say after his research.
First Gen wrote:According to Crave.com'sFacebook page, promoters for Botcon 2011 have released a hint at what the next possible figure will be in the Transformer convention's attendee package set:
"BOTCON 2011 MYSTERY: We've already shown you the Dead End (Jazz redeco) slated for release at this years BotCon. Promoters have released a hint that supposedly gives insight into what the next figure in the set will be. The hint is "Axl Foley." Good luck!"
Good luck indeed. We know TF Animated took place in Detroit, Axl Foley was a character played by Eddie Murphy in the film franchise Beverly Hills Cop, who haled from Detroit, so that must mean............well I have no clue.
Who do you think they might be referring to? Let us know!

This was the most recent post from BotCon 2011's Twitter feed. No word yet if that means the set will feature Animated molds or Animated characters, but we'll keep you posted as more information develops.
Midwesterners (U.S.) rejoice! If Botcon in California is a bit too far, and a bit too hefty of a convention to try to attend, you may want to consider... Dairycon 2011.
Jam-packed with fun, excitement, and it's own super-rare, and super cool exclusives, DAIRYCON could just be your destination in 2011 and is located in the very heart of the cheese industry, WISCONSIN!
So are convinced yet? No. Well Methusalen stopped by to share that there has been a reveal for yet another exclusive figure, an interestingly deco'd bot that goes by the name of STEERS.
"Greetings, Moo Believers!
OK, gang... the first thing you gotta do is make sure you're alone in the house. Now, lock all the doors and windows. What you are about to read is top secret and for the eyes of Moo Believers Only! If this were to fall into the wrong hands, it surely would mean the end of Transfandom as we know it!
Therefore, hold up your hands and pledge yourselves to the deepest secrecy, in the name of Primus and Uncle Whiskey Breath, amen!
OK, now that we're done with the ceremonial trappings, let us proceed to the heart of the matter... Dairycon Staffers have just revealed pictures and information on the second Dairycon 2011 Exclusive!
Behold the wonder: Steers!"
Check out STEERS bio and images below. You can register for April's Dairycon 2011 here, and get your very own STEERS...and more (to be revealed)!
Profile: STEERS is the official herder of the Dairycon Universe. He is on constant patrol, making sure none of the other Dairycons get off the farm. STEERS keeps the whole Dairycon Universe in check. Considered the justice in these here parts; a cattle-rustlin, bronco-bustin, spur-wearin, hard-drinking, fast-living bot. In a barroom brawl he is ready to break a bottle and fight with the best of them. A perpetual ladies-bot who is always saving the damsel in distress. Loves the open range. Rumored that Heffer found Steers on the planet of Junk.
Abilities: As the official herder of Dairycon, he is the only one who knows the secret behind why Dairycons can have both Autobot and Decepticon symbols. He will never tell, though! That info is what helps him keep the Dairycons from escaping the farm. He is also the only one who knows where UNCLE WHISKEY BREATH keeps his secret still.
Weaknesses: Though STEERS has no known physical weaknesses, he secretly longs for the day when he can wield the Lasso of Liberty and Hat of Heroism.
