Radio Free Cybertron 594 – The Skeleton Crew
This week Matt, Diecast and special guest Eric Crownover are back from a fun-filled trip to TFCon USA in Chicago. They give their first-hand account of all the items that were on display as well as the all the new stuff they brought home with them. That wasn’t the only convention in the past week, however, so there are plenty of new Studio Series and Siege reveals to talk about as well. Oh, and it looks like early tracking has the Bumblebee movie tanking upon its release in December. Oh well, at least we’re getting some pretty cool looking shoes around the same time. So tunnel your way out from under your TFCon haul and join us for this week on RFC!
