2nd TFcon 2011 Exclusive Announced: Head Robots Toxin

The 2nd TFcon 2011 exclusive is Toxin!
When Lord Zarak needed someone to help copy the Headmaster and Transtector technology that Stronghold pioneered, he turned to Toxin. Toxin biggest claim to fame back on Cybertron was the mass cloning process of Reflector which bulked out Megatron's army during the early days of the war. He made 3 special clones for himself Edge, Shield and Bullet (Dubbed the NIGHT OPS SFX) as his hired goons to help get him needed "materials" for future experiments.
All was going well for Toxin till he along with Lord Zarak got captured by the Autobots. His personal Transtector body was destroyed in the scuffle and now he hopes to break free and commandeer a new one.

Produced by Head Robots, you can now give your headless G1 figures a much needed upgrade. This figure is limited to only 100 pieces and limited to one per attendee.

TFcon features Canada's largest dealer room for Transformers merchandise, question and answer panels and autograph sessions with many special guests including Transformers writer Simon Furman and Transformers voice actors Garry Chalk and Paul Eiding; artists Joe Ng, Alex Milne and Matt Moylan, a costume and customs contest and fan discussion panels.

TFcon - Canada's 10th Annual Transformers Collectors Convention is July 30th and 31st, 2011 at the Delta Meadowvale Resort and Conference Centre in Mississauga, Ontario with free parking. You can book your hotel room for TFcon 2011 via the hotel reservation website.

Re: 2nd TFcon 2011 Exclusive Announced: Head Robots Toxin

So, if I'm reading this right, are you guys treating "Lord Zarak" as a westernization of "Megazarak"?

Given this is the 2011 Headmasters continuity and all...

(I mean, I'm guessing the real reason is that Hasbro has no trademark on Zarak, but I'm wondering from a fiction perspective)

I like how you cross referenced the PE-11 exclusive figures into this story. Nicely done.

Not surprised they cross-referenced them. Last year's comic had all the prior TFcon exclusives turn up.

Including the customizing class figure for that year before we knew about him (Flash) and the exclusive Cyclonus bust they had one year.

There's only one thing you guys are lacking at this point, and that's an addon boxset box with properly cut foam and Alex Milne art for people to display this in :P
