The Official Transformers Collectors' Club just sent out an update on BotCon 2014 registration. They still hope to go live this week, however it will probably be sometime after Tuesday. Stay tuned.
Hello Everyone!
We are still shooting for registration to go live this week. It won't be today or Tuesday, so rest those refresh keys!
We have loaded on the Information page a Package Matrix to help everyone make sure they are ordering the correct package. Check it out.
In the meantime, to make sure you have not forgotten your log in or password, please go to TransformersClub.com/shop and log in. If it works there, it will work with the registration system. You can also retrieve your password at the store site.
Also please use the email link at BotCon.com if you have any questions, and make sure you read the FAQs before we start registration!
See you in Pasadena!

Still think that $395 for the non-attendee package is absurd. >:oP

Ahh $340 sounds about right. and $20ish shipping I believe.
The price increase this year maybe from the "TRANSFORMERS FAN EXPERIENCE at Universal Studios." that this Years non-attendee package maybe helping to subsidize. We'll know for sure if next year's prices goes down or stay the sameish.

Not the first time it jumped about $30. It was $315 in 2011.
Then again, 2012 had 6 figures in it.

I doubt it. This seems like it's going to be one of the desirable sets thanks to Scorponok, Devcon, and Ginrai(who's a lot more popular than I expected). Probably Games of Deception popular($700 or so on eBay) more than Shattered Glass popular($1000+), though.

Scorponok alone will probably sell for half the cost of the set.

Yeah, buying Cannonball will be cheap. Ferak will be semi-cheap but don't forget the minicon/micron factor. The other three will destroy your wallet if you wait for secondary.

Yeah, gotta jump on it right away to get into the tours and such as well. And with only 250 bagged sets this year, going to have to jump in quick to get any of those as well. I'm hoping it goes smoothly.
I've also gotta say, while it still isn't as good as "It will go live this day at this time", the fact that they're communicating this at all this time around is a huge improvement. Used to just come out of the blue.

Pretty sure those who are waiting are just shy from what happened last year.
I'll tell you what though since I'm not going to botcon I'll probably wait till the hype dies down to get the souvenir sets.

Yes, please do. I am really looking forward to that Ginrai, it's looking more and more bad ass every time I look at it. Ferak and Tornado are cool, too. Also, I wonder how hard it will be to get a hold of that Tidal Wave, if indeed that's who will be in the troop-building 3-pack.

Also, RIP to the UT era Transformers logo, looks like even on Botcon sets we're movin' on to the new one.
Is it not all to align with official Hasbro products..? For convenience, I mean.
Yep, it makes sense. I just dug that old-ish one.

Same. I really liked the old design. It was a good'un.

Looks great; hopefully registration goes up soon and I can get my package purchase completed.

Looks really cool. I'd like a peek inside to see how the figures are arranged. I'm guessing the 4 smaller 1s in vehicle mode while Scorponok is in 'bot mode. (And Fox, better be on your game! )

I like it.
I'd like it even more if they would have just marketed this set as a classics set. Get rid of the silly theme and made up faction symbols. I'm very thankful Scorponok & Devcon were made that way.

They can't do that. They destroyed the Classicsverse. These are Wings Universe toys.Doctor McGrath wrote:I'd like it even more if they would have just marketed this set as a classics set.

You do know that the Star Seeker symbol is already on the Thundertron RID Prime figure, right?
Only the Knights emblem is new.

I'm cool with Cannonball's symbol. I can get over Ginrai's, it's whatever, but yeah I'd have rather it just have been an Autobot symbol.

I'm not interested in their fiction either. I've tried, just can't get into it.
Yes, I do.
Yeah, i see your point. Cannonball works for sure. I'd be more ok with Ginrai if the symbol on the wind-vane wasn't so big. I get they were going for the shield look but man is it huge. I'd been more accepting of the knight symbols on his shoulder & a regular bot logo on the "shield." Then it could be more of like a cop's badge or a Rodimus star instead of him screaming, "hey!!! I'm a knight, see!" Haha.
