The other experience you may not have taken part in is the VIP event that took place on the Saturday evening of Hascon, the one that included the Hall of Fame inductions for Susan Blu and Lorenzo di Bonaventura, the Transformers: The Last Knight panel with Mark Wahlberg, Isabela Moner, di Bonaventura, Frank Welker and Peter Cullen, the Power of the Primes reveals of the Terrorcons and more with Takara Tomy and Hasbro designers - such as Shogo Hasui, Takashi Kunihiro, Hideaki Yoke, plus John Warden, and others - and the Toy and Character Hall of Fame reveals!

The Stan Bush concert at the end of the night is not included in this recording, but you can join Hasbro CEO Brian Goldner and the host for the evening, plus site owner Seibertron in the full VIP evening events in the video below!

Bossbot extraordinaire, Seibertron, posted his walkthrough of the Transformers Area walk through at Hascon, in it there's vintage and modern toys on display, a huge Optimus Prime statue from his Transformers: Prime appearance, showings of the cartoons and movies all weekend for everybody to watch, the vehicles from the live action films, autograph signings from the various voice actors and stars, Rescue Bots play area, The epic The Last Knight diorama, and much, much more. It definitely is worth checking out to see the fantastic sights below!

We'll be showcasing more videos throughout the week from HasCon as they become available, stay tuned!

if Frank Welker can finally start attending convenionts(which he avoided for many years), hopefully Corey Burton can do the same someday.

There are two kinds of people in this thread right now :-P

(I am also excited for Deathsaurus! And much as I'm frustrated that we didn't see Apeface and Snapdragon in TR, I'm just glad that we've basically got confirmation they're in the pipeline. I mean, that statement seems pretty wink-wink-nudge-nudge-hint-hint to me, and considering they've got Generations mapped out for the next four years at least... the wait may be unbearable, but it's less unbearable than not knowing if they're ever gonna happen at all

Oh, I know, I know and trust me, the other announcements do make me happy(even if they didn't mention Seacons at all, c´mon, with Rippersnapper, Overbite shouldn't be far), but it IS enraging that they said that about the Horrorcons. :BANG_HEAD:

To those of you who went, how would you rate the Transformers part of Hascon? Better or worse than BotCon used to be?

Anybody hitting HTS for the exclusives on September 20th? Looks like I'm out of luck on the GI Joe Cobra missile command but everything else will be there.

Exclusives are up, although it looks like some haven't come in stock yet or won't come in stock period

Both items just added stock (I have been rechecking every hour since last night) and I successfully placed my order for both items just now. Better hurry before they disappear.

We would like to pass the news along to you today that the HASCON exclusive figures Arcee with Leinad and Ultra Magnus along with Power Bank Optimus Prime are now available for order! These figures are available through HasbroToyshop, and are priced at $24.99 and $49.99, respectively. Both are currently in stock, though unlikely to stay that way for too long, so go and get your orders placed now!

I got mine as well.
The primitive Prime was also listed as available.

Thanks so much. I got my Arcee ordered. No shipping fee for an exclusive? I couldn't believe that. My total was $26.55 shipped out the door. I look forward to getting her. :-D

I was very surprised I could order Titans Arcee. I just expected this was another convention exclusive I would have no chance at adding to my collection. Thanks for the heads up!

It looks like the Cobra missile command either never came in stock or sold out quick.

Bummer!! I used Paypal to check out...do not know if that is what caused the free shipping or not. Sorry you got charged.

Trying to create an account but apparently, the site doesn't recognize Canadian postal codes and keeps giving me an error message saying that my zip code is wrong.

Help?

I don't think you need an account just to buy from the site. I don't have one.

Thanks! I'd appreciate it! The site still won't recognize the postal code wether I try tout sign in as a guess or for an account. And I tried on my cell and a computer. Darnit.

Just PM me directly when you get your shipment in and I'll gladly take one off of your hands.

Nah, I'm expecting Toys 'R Us really, despite the financial issues... If all else fails, Amazon.

She was up for about an hour before selling out. That's about six times as long Primitive Prime lasted.

I actually dont mind that. I have quite a few Walgreens in Mid Indiana. Found Brainstorm almost without trying at the first one I checked.

Skipping the Walgreens clones though. I can sell my Pounce and pay less for the two Takara sets than trying to track down the Hasbro Fastlane.

Thats also 10 times as long as the Pokemon Go Chicago event tickets were up for. God I hate scalpers. #scalpstatistics

Different Stock allotments. If Hasbro took 75 cases to HASCON, set aside 20 Cases for HTS, and sold 100 Cases to TRU (And I am totally making up numbers on the spot, those in no way actually represent the amounts.) It's not that Hasbro took 195 Cases of Arcee to HASCON, sold 60 of them, and then said "Okay, well now what, Einstein?"
