This year's Shared Dairycon/Cybcon/DutchBotcon/Gamers Reunion/Autocon exclusive will be called "Ass-09"!

The "Automated Security Sentries zero-9" prototype testshot that provided our first peek at the figure was recently sold on Ebay. The figure is based off the Beast Machines Battle Unicorn figure.

The previously seen "Raging Red" Dairycon figure:

While another variant has appeared, the "Bitter Black" Cybcon figure:

Notice the lack of Red mane/leg detail, as well as the changes in the plastic (most noticeable in the figure's legs).

The character bio for Ass-09 can be found by following this link. Keep an eye out for information regarding the other Dairycon exclusives (COMING SOON!!!!)

Finally, pre-registration for Dairycon 2009 is closing March 1st! While the con is free to attend, you MUST pre-register. No walk-ins. So pre-register soon if you plan to come!

-------------------------------------------

Here's "Assinine"'s tech spec from http://www.geocities.com/fredsworkshop/assinine.html:

Allegiance: Dairycon
Name: Assinine (Ass-09)
Function: Donkey of the Apocolypse


Quote:"My Fellow Cybertonians..."

Profile: he's a liberal tree-hugging hippie donkey. So liberal that he gives Beachcomber the creeps. Believes that the Decepticons aren't evil, just "misunderstood". Believes that all vehicle alt-mode transformers should be forced to take on Beast modes to keep from emitting greenhouse gases.

Abilities: Like all the Automated Security Sentries, A.S.S.-09 comes equipped with a stunwhip, which renders enemies unconscious without permanently damaging them. Armored body in beastmode able to withstand most heavy artillary assaults; hooves can kick a hole thru solid steel or even knock a larger Transformer off his wheels.

Weaknesses: Philosophical differences with other Dairycons often cause Ass-09 to be left behind during missions. He has a distinct lack of offensive weaponry in either mode. His refusal to use his abilities often cost him considerably. Constant speeches about protecting the environment have actually caused some Autobots to switch sides in the conflict.

This guy's bio is awesome! He is the biggest Democrat liberal. I wonder which creative conservative wrote his bio? Funny. He should have an ally that is a repaint of a Rhinox and call it "Spectorbot." That would be fitting. :mrgreen:

His enemy could be the elephant, "Rush."

That bio is PRICELESS!!! Hey..wait...is that Al Gore's alt mode? :P

"His speeches have actually caused some Autobots to switch sides..." That's just awesome...

now all we need is an Elephant TF modeled after Rush Limbaugh for his arch enemy!

Beat me to it heh heh...

Actually, he'd be wrong about beast modes not emitting methane gases. Rhinox emitting a HUGE blast of methane if memory serves... :P

Oh, man, this is freaking hilarious! :grin: :lol:

First Aid, I have the perfect mold in mind for Assinine's right-wing counterpart: BW Neo Big Convoy. With enough firepower to supply the Army, and a red and gray color scheme (red for the Republican color, gray for the elephant color), this guy would be awesome. I can't quite think of a name, though. The only one I can think of is either Peacemaker or Peacekeeper (a homage to the fact that ridiculously huge (and awesome) weapons get called peacemakers).

Great idea. You should run it by the toy creators somehow.

The Rino could be the compromised Republican in name only. The Republican could be the mammoth Prime, of course how ingenious. And Ass 09's leader could be some sort of Obama and Pelosi team.
