So Botcon, I mean BOTCON! Of course, Botcon is definitely not the only thing going on. Even in these driest of dry times we've still gotta lot to yap about. Of course there's C5 news. We get looks at the newest MOTUC figures. There's lotsa of shady stuff going on, including Toy Fair Lego McQuarrie Boba Fett, Qui-Gon/Eopie mail-away, and fake AFAs? We've even got a G.I. Joe and Matty Q and A to boot. Not a lot going on in stores, at least here in the US, but online is still popping off with new pre-orders. We actually have another toy review. This time we look at the controversial Shadow Squadron ARC-170. Lastly...Thundercats Hooooo!

I registered for Botcon. Did you? What number were you? I didn’t even get close to the first 100, but if feels good to have that done. I’m getting really excited. We talk about all the new guests for C5 and guess how I’ll be spending an extra $60 at SDCC. We highlight the best news from the latest Star Wars and Matty Collector Q and A’s. Not much out there, but we still manage to get a ton o’stuff. We review one of the most articulated 3.75” figure ever. Finally, tons of Grab Bag for ya.

We’ve got a long one to make up for the time we’ve been gone. In con news we talk about Orko and his “accessory”, Prince Adam. We also recap all the new information from Joecon 2010. Are we getting a Rodimus Masterpiece? What about all those Botcon leaks? While new stuff isn’t hitting shelves or pegs, the webs are on fire with pre-orders. Did I mention we actually have a review this week? Too bad it’s of a doll and not an action figure. Lastly, we’ve got a ton of new voicemails. So buckle up, strap in or what your favorite form of restraint is because it’s going to be a toyrific ride.

Have you seen all the new Star Wars Comic Packs? I haven't. Have you seen the latest wave of Clone Wars figures? I haven't. Have you seen...well you get the point. I didn't miss the new Transformers Collector Club exclusives, did you? Fan projects are still dominating transformers. Three words, ANTIQUE FORCE DETAIL! Where's all the Joe and Masters news? Lastly, we're getting an Ikea! WE'RE GETTING AN IKEA!! YAY!!! Don’t forget to call in to 720.235.TOYS (8697) with your favorite thing from Toy Fair.

This time around we discuss all the latest con announcements and chime in on the latest Matty Collector debacle. Do you realize we have used that word to describe Matty almost every single month? There have been tons of new sightings since Toy Fair. Some great new pre-orders have hit including the G.I. Joe Collectors Club’s 3.75 Adventure Team, FansProject’s Warbot Defender (Springer) and the newest and last wave of Star Wars Comic Packs. We also flesh out our new Toy Fair/SDCC contest a little more, so don’t forget to call in to 720.235.TOYS (8697) with your favorite thing from Toy Fair.

Toy Fair 2010 has come and gone. We recap the show and talk about some of the stand outs: Transformers' Drift and SDCC Blaster re-issue, G.I. Joe's SDCC Sgt. Slaughter done 25th style, MOTUCs 12" Tytus and SDCC Mo-Larr/Skeletor (sans impacted wisdom tooth) 2-pack, and last but certainly not least Star Wars' Vintage and SDCC Maul Visionaries comic pack complete with mech legs. We also berate some of the more mehs: Transformers' Power Core Combiners, G.I. Joe's Cobra Commander becoming a chase figure, MOTUC/DCUC 2-packs, and don't forget the Card Game for Clone Wars.

So what exactly do we cover in almost 4 hours of yapping? Well it is beginning to look a lot like Con’ Season everywhere you go. We get a better look at Transformer Collector Club exclusives. Then there is the first okay shot of the BAT-AT. Did you hear we might see a reissue of Predaking, again? That makes me very happy. Ridiculous amounts of toys are hitting pegs and shelves across the country, including Legends Devastator and new Transformers: Animated. Lotsa of new pre-orders too. I’m especially excited about the new FansProject’s Crossfire/Bruticus upgrade kits. Finally, we talk Razzies and our franchises and Prime and Bumblebee get some cleavage.

Wrapping up our first (mega) cast of the new year, we finally get to the new voicemails and hear from some friends not so geographically near, but just as close in our hearts. (Psst, that was the impetus to that whole Homie Christmas story by the way.) We also talk about all the new War for Cybertron game, toy and cartoon news. Are you excited? I know I am. Have you seen that new Star Wars Adidas apparel? We have and it's kind of love/hate for this conglomeration of two of my favorite things. Last we've got a lot going with OYTC and not shy at all about telling you about it.

Also, don't forget the contest going on. Just give us a call at 720.235.TOYS (8697) and tell us what you got for the holidays. We've got an awesome Fetts prize package and I've tossed in a couple goodies as well. We want to hear your wonderful voices. You've got until January 31st bitches!
