Correct, I just confirmed with them that you can't get these by email. Gotsta be at Botcon.
No big deal for me, since we don't even know what it looks like and I like the original cartoon colours anyway.
I think only 250 is fairly reasonable, I doubt demand for a repaint of these guys is huge. They're an absolutely incredible set of figures, but the original version is what I would expect most people will want.
Be interesting to see what it looks like though. Guess we'll find out tomorrow.

I think I'll just make do with my set. I'm starting to grow weary of trying to hunt down the "got to have" exclusives.

Want to thanks Flux for helping me out with this set!! Wish I coulda been there at botcon to see ya bud.
Looks like any of the white parts on the original color scheme will be redone in black. That's the only difference I noticed when I saw pics.

I can't grab the pics at work because the photo site is blocked. I'll try and post it when I get home if it's not already done.

It looked decent enough, but seemed rather unnecessary. There didn't seem to be an overwhelming demand to sign up for it either. I think early Sunday I saw they had about 210 people signed up.

No problem my man. I'm pretty sure your name was the second one on the list, lol. I got to that booth right away. The big differences were the purple being black and the white was a sparkly grey/silver. The metallic plastic looked neat but not enough for me to buy both versions. I'd have liked to parts swap. Too much money though.
My pics aren't the greatest but you get a pretty good idea of what it is.

I think I've talked myself out of these guys. Putting the original set up for display, the figures are only about 2/3 the size of a legends class figure. Not sure if I can justify a second recolor at $90, especially knowing they're essentially three of the same figure.
Given, I love the figures. But value of plastic to money is not good.
Really wish they could get the prices down on their figures. I think more people would buy them.

Does anyone have a pic of the camera mode? Guessing that's where this one will really shine.

There wasn't a sample in camera mode. I would have taken pics and put them here for you guys to see if there were.
Joevill is a good guy. The lady and I enjoy his company a good deal.

That is a pretty cool variant. I imagine the camera looks pretty slick in that color scheme.

When one of you receives your bots, please post pics of the camera mode. I think this will be a deciding factor if I try to hunt one of these down.

The toon colored ones look kinda junky in photos. In hand though, man they are some very cool toys. Possibly my favorite purchase at Botcon this year. If you don't know, Reprolabels has a set in the works for these. That should put any final touches on these guys. I think all they're really missing IMO, would be faction symbols.

joevill has pics up on his fb page if you are friends with him. They look awesome. I'll be missing them today since you must home to sign for them and will be gone all weekend long, so I won't get to them until Tuesday.
