BotCon 2006 brings you another outstanding collection of figures that is a must have for every collector. This set will be the star in every Transformers fan's collection as it tells an untold story. Bringing together classic characters, along with three new head sculpts; this set celebrates the 10th Anniversary of the Beast Wars.

 

Here's the story…

 

For centuries, there has been peace between the Maximals and Predacons, an uneasy, yet stable truce allowing Cybertron to thrive long after the last days of the Great War. The Great War, the end of which found the Decepticons finally falling victim to their quest for power, at long last was over. Many of the last Autobots, having achieved a final victory, found peace in the secluded parts of their home planet. However, three stayed behind to help guide the young Maximal population to prepare them for that inevitable day when those who want to conquer Cybertron would return.

 

The Predacons, born from what remained of the original five, emerged only to find that the Maximals, like their Autobot ancestors, would not surrender to oppression and tyranny. So, a truce was made between the mysterious Maximal High Command and the current ruling council of the Predacon army. But now, a renegade (neither side anticipated) has taken up the mantle of his namesake and prepares for a new war to begin. On the other side of the galaxy, the Commander of a small group of Maximals on an exploration ship will soon find that they are the only ones who stand between this renegade and the conquest of Cybertron.

 

"Optimus Primal, this is Maximal High Command. A Predacon who goes by the name of Megatron has stolen the Golden Disk. You and your Axalon crew are to intercept his ship and retrieve the disk at any cost. The future of our world depends on it!�

 

"Well now, that's just Prime!� -Optimus

 

Before the Battle of the Spark, before the Beast Wars, and in the tradition of the War Within, BotCon 2006 presents this September: "The Dawn of Futures Past!� a Transformers set and story from where it all begins.

 

This one-of-a-kind five figure set consists of: Optimus Primal, Rat Trap, Rhinox, Cheetor, and Dinobot in their pre-Beast Wars Cybertronian forms. When you see these ‘bots, you will recognize them as the pre-cursors to the Beast Wars characters we all know and love. This set of figures is truly amazing and provides you with a glimpse into their personalities in a way never seen before. Bob Forward (original Beast Wars writer) has been a member of the consulting team for this prequel to the Beast Wars story. This set comes in the same collector friendly art display box as the 2005 set along with special Golden Disk Keys.

 

To recap this terrific offer, you get five figures along with their personal weapon and Golden Disk Key. This set comes packed in foam in a large illustrated deluxe box. It will become the centerpiece of your collection as the set completes the trilogy beginning with The Dawn of Figures Past, the saga of the Beast Wars and concluding with Beast Machines. Don't wait to place your order as this set is limited to 750 editions.* Watch the BotCon.com website for photographs of these amazing figures as soon as they become available.

of course, they'll just be remolds of previous toys and from what we know of last year, the only things that will be remolded are the heads.

Only 2 figures will have new heads, the other 3 will be straight repaints according to the brochure.  So yeah...

That could have been so friggin awesome.  :redface

Any guesses as to who will get recoloured for them?

Good lord, BotCon wants to suck the fans dry of their money. Sickening :P

 

 

*is going cause he lives in Lexington*

Am I the only one that wonder why the set only has one pred?

I may go to the Con this year since it's fairly close by, but the exclusives are Meh.
