BotCon 2006 - Transformers Classics Showcase

BotCon 2006 is here and not to disappoint Hasbro showed up with a lot of new figures to show us. With all the excitement around the Classics Wave 1 toys just hitting retail stores now. The chance to see what's coming in subsequent waves was what we all wanted and got. Check out the gallery and report on the new Classics at the show - Read More

Ultra Magnus

Where there is smoke there is fire and where there's an Optimus Prime there's bound to be an Ultra Magnus reissue. He looks surprisingly good and comes in a sweet Target exclusive 2-pack set that includes a re-deco of Starscream as deluxe Skywarp.

Jetfire

We've seen pics of him floating around. This Voyager class fig is the next best thing to the real thing. Comes with extra add on armor and propulsion accessories too. I gotta admit he looks little more bulky than I thought the robot would - Still a must have!

Mirage

The formula racer makes his official debut! Pretty spiffy. He needs to put on some weight though.

Grimlock

Oh my, just about the coolest Classic figure yet if you ask me. If this is the shape of things to come, I hope we're gonna see the rest of the Dinobots too.

Skywarp

He's the other half of the Target 2-pack Ultra Magnus set. We all saw this coming and are glad for it.

Ramjet

Another repaint of the deluxe Starscream figure. Ramjet looks good with a dark complexion and fatter rockets.

Lots O LOC!

People stop buying those little crappy LOC figures will ya?! Hasbro must think we love them because they are making a lot more of them - with all kinds of whacked names to boot. On display are Trypticon, Menasor, Jetfire, Leo Prime, Bumblebee, Whirl and few more.

Optimus Prime VS. Megatron DVD Set

The elusive Prime Vs. Megatron set is on display too. We're all dying to know what's on that DVD!

Mucho Mini-Cons!

We just found out about these things and there's like so many of them already. You want more beasts? Well they got 'em. Look through the gallery for lions, tigers and maybe even a bear?
