Unreleased Transformers Botcon paint samples on eBay

[ATT]

Transformers News http://atu.ca/2c911

Some extremely special pieces of Transformers Convention
history have gone up on Ebay [eBay:
http://atu.ca/BotconSamples ], courtesy of Jon and Karl
Hartman (of Botcon founding fame). First and foremost is
the original paint sample for "Chaos Armor" Defensor, the
planned exclusive for OTFCC 2005 that sadly never got made
due to 3H's insolvency. Chaos Armor Defensor would have
been a second version of the planned Defensor exclusive,
made to offset the cost of offering a Super (Leader) Class
toy as an exclusive.

Next come original paint samples for three Botcon Wreckers
characters who were never intended to be offered as
exclusives. Rotorbolt, Devcon, and Alpha Trion were all
hand-painted by one of Hasbro's former lead deco artists
and are the exact toys pictured in the Botcon Wreckers
catalog. These are true pieces of Transformers Convention
history!...

I don't only have 2 maybe 3 botcon exclusives. I can barely afford
the botcon prices. I just don't see myself spending ebay scalper
prices for "HAND PAINTED" botcon repaints.

Side note: I suspose someone can buy the botcon hand painted defensor.
then let a talented TF fan make who knows how to cast molds. make
repro's of the defensor head.

I'd buy that cast part in a second if they did.
