TFcon has announced it's second convention exclusive, Head Robots Toxin, limited to 100 pieces.

The 2nd TFcon 2011 exclusive is Toxin!

When Lord Zarak needed someone to help copy the Headmaster and Transtector technology that Stronghold pioneered, he turned to Toxin. Toxin biggest claim to fame back on Cybertron was the mass cloning process of Reflector which bulked out Megatron‘s army during the early days of the war. He made 3 special clones for himself Edge, Shield and Bullet (Dubbed the NIGHT OPS SFX) as his hired goons to help get him needed “materials” for future experiments.
All was going well for Toxin till he along with Lord Zarak got captured by the Autobots. His personal Transtector body was destroyed in the scuffle and now he hopes to break free and commandeer a new one.

Produced by Head Robots, you can now give your headless G1 figures a much needed upgrade. This figure is limited to only 100 pieces and limited to one per attendee.

Who else is going to TFcon? I'll be there. Thinking about bringing some Seibertron.com t-shirts with me to sell to our Canadian Seibertron.com fans.

Toxin looks cool, but I dunno...

Oh man just another reason I wish I was going earlier. At least I'm getting Stronghold although Toxin seems more exclusive. :( Now I gotta get my hands on him and PE-11!

The toxin kit is... kinda cute :D The Onslaught upgrade makes no real sense to me, but it is very cool looking and I wouldn't mind having one. Goodluck to you Canadians and American travelers in getting your hands on these sets (and one for you good friend GRR :lol: )

Poor Weirdwolf, being reincarnated as a mushroom head. Theres too many Monzos on e-bay for anyone to seriously buy this mold.

I suppose it's like the Junkion Blacksmith Headmasters. No REAL purpose or place, just cool. I don't think there is any official canon about a headmaster that turns into a cobra tank thing....but it's neat.

I got the Snake Villain a while ago… it's okay, very simplistic.
Nice as a one-off but I wouldn't go out of my way for a duplicate of the mold.

Had a blast at TFcon this year. Some of my haul is still on the floor (yes, it's shameful, I know). I need to get some more shelf space!
