Sounds interesting. Curious to see what else is part of the lineup.

An insane, way-out-there idea is 3rd Party Jewel Lords.

Maybe this'll calm you down...here's another idea:

A family of Jewel Lords, fully loaded with weapons, and packaged in a specially marked sack.

Re: TFcon 2013 Exclusive Van Guardian Profile

I wonder if it's the Hench mold, or maybe the Bushwacker mold, or a combination of the two.

I see what you did there and I liked it.

In all seriousness though, I've seen some speculation at to this possibly being a Hench repaint. I hope more for Not-Gears as Hench was a REALLY weak mold IMO.

Possibly. The "optional battle mask" part does narrow things down quite a bit.

It would be great to...expand on last year's Shafter idea.

Back on topic, as long as the price points of this year's exclusives are like last year, I don't see a problem with it.

Van Guard Approves of this thread:



Anyways, I'm trying to flesh out the Van Guard wiki page in honor of him being the inspiration for the TFcon exclusive this year. If anyone has anything to add, please do so.

I can add a lot but I have no time right now. I more or less watched every Gobot episode in existence and know the character like the back of my hand.

Question Re: TFcon 2013 Exclusive Van Guardian Profile

If we can't get a family of Jewel Lords type of homages (see my above posts), would using Crane Brain this year too close to last year's idea?
