1. Comic Book. Digital version of the C2E2 comic giveaway introduces 3 of the characters. Comic is being given out at the C2E2, it seems.
2. C2E2-Exclusive Clear Vorin Figure. Vorin is a ram, and he's the show's free figure. The toys page shows him (bagged) as well as the 4 previous promo figures, all of which have no specific character name.3. Character reveals. 3 characters are named - Vorin the Ram, Gruntos the Walrus, and Merk the Edie Falco.
4. Series 1 and 2 are mentioned by name but will not be revealed until later. Series 1 is said to be coming Fall 2012, and revealed at Comic-Con in San Diego this July.
There is no obvious connection to Beast Saga. Aside from the basic concept and what appears to be a flame symbol on Vorin's outfit, there's no real connection to the old Hasbro or Takara toys either. It looks fun. I'm in.
Yeah I randomly found out about the launch when looking at a comment on the Battle Beasts Facebook page, so I was quite surprised. I also in for this one. I love mini-mates and Battle Beasts so they are a good pairing in my opinion. I know my gold alligator might be getting his own name if none is given for him.
ReplyDeleteGah now I need to find someone who is going to C2E2 to snag me a clear red Vorin figure. >_<
