BotCon 2009: Hasbro Panel

Written by Big Bot on May 30, 2009 | BotCon,Conventions,Hasbro,News,Toys,Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen | Tags: , , —

Hasbro’s panel at BotCon 2009 is in mid flow and a few of the main USA sites are live blogging/twittering/posting updates from the convention. Unfortunately, no photos or videos are allowed, so there’s only lots of text to read.

The panel consists of Greg Lombardo, Aaron Archer, Bill Rawley, Joe Kyde, and Erik Siebenaler, as well as some of Hasbro’s writers and marketing team. There’s a lot of information on Masterpiece, Animated, Universe and Revenge of the Fallen toys for the rest of 2009 and 2010. Hopefully there will be some more news on why Animated was cancelled, but we may have to wait until tomorrow.

If you can’t be bothered to read through everything, I will post the big news from the convention: Hasbro are planning on becoming more environmental with their packaging and removing the twist ties. Amazing!

BotCon 2009: Animating Animated Panel Coverage

Written by Big Bot on | Animated,BotCon,Cartoon,Conventions,News | Tags: —

The first panel at BotCon 2009 was on the creative process behind the Transformers: Animated show, with the subtitle, Animating Animated.

Lets start with the bad news, Transformers: Animated as a cartoon is finished! It was the first thing announced to prevent endless questions on the subject. The panel recorded all these types of questions being asked at Hasbro’s panel, which should now be even more entertaining.

Also shown were plenty of the Animated Shorts that have appeared on previous DVDs.

More details, including a full description of the creative process of the show, with pictures and videos, can be found at TFW2005 and Tformers.
