Not Just the vehicle mode.
Edit: That's not even a new head mold.

..and I love it!

Yes, it's official from Botcon

Tankor's okay for ten bucks, but not as a convention mold.

He looks great.
Although three deluxes and one voyager makes Sharkticon the Ultra? Huh?
Posted by Tigertrack on April 22nd, 2010 @ 5:23pm CDT
Still maybe a group shot of them will make it look better. Maybe.

agreed, I will keep my fingers crossed this is a fan made digibash.
I dont even use the original classics tankor in my collection due to his dinky arms and ridiculous weapon

So we might be getting Onslaught used instead for Clench, With a new head.

Thanks, but FunPub already killed off my dignity when I found that out for myself 10 minutes ago.
Touche FunPub touche. I will get you sometime.

this thread was a roller coaster, I've never hated and then loved an exclusive in the span of 6-7 posts.

I would like to make a statement, and say, let's move past the Clench as Tankor days. I want to forget about ever getting owned by FunPub.

Nice play FP.

Looks like he's the other guy besides Breakdown getting a retooled head. Unless that image proves to be wrong, that is.

I'll never quit you Blurrz! Thanks for the links! Is it at all possible that this faux clench will be a different character? Speaking of repaints, there is a twin-cockpit jet, a purple shuttle and several minicons heading straight for the furnace of my mansion. Rosebud style. Look it up!
Posted by Burn on April 22nd, 2010 @ 6:13pm CDT
Sorry, but that's just how I feel about this set so far this year. There's been nothing exciting about it, nothing original, nothing that peeks my interest about it.
I'd go so far to say that it's the most boring an un-exciting BotCon set ever.

Meh, I'm glad I don't visit Botcons. Their exclusives start to get more like cheap kitbashes.

Missed the conversations about Botcon not wanting/able to use movie molds in what others have said.
I thought that I had heard that anything was available to use for Botcon exclusives, but I had also heard movie was out due to copyrights.
Either way, I cannot see them using a mess of different line molds that are very different. If they are going to use movie molds, or animated molds, I would expect all the molds to be of that type, not a couple. They just would not fit together well as a set.
