Botcon 2015 - Final Boxset Figure Reveal 'The Bounty Hunter'

The fifth figure for the Botcon 2015 boxset has proven to be what many have speculated, the Pretender Oilmaster. The inner robot is represented by a recolor of Generations Legends Swerve with its partner Targetmaster figure. The Pretender shell based on a canceled G1 concept appears to be a fully new piece made for this set which can hold both robots. Keep reading for screencaps, the embedded video and more!

The Oilmaster Pretender shell seen in the video is stated to be a resin hardcopy, while the factory carries out certain requested adjustments to the production version, so while this represents the idea, be ready for some differences to happen between now and the first reveal of an actual production sample. The Double Pretenders were an abandoned late-G1 concept which would have featured two inner robot figures occupying a single shell, which is the design mechanic this exclusive seeks to emulate. The Oilmaster character debuted in eHobby fiction a few years ago, bringing the ape Pretender design to use for the first time.

Also, the hardcopy Pretender shell is shown carrying Construct-Bot weapon molds. It's unclear if these are placeholders or these accessory molds have been "borrowed" for Botcon use.
