BotCon 2009 took fans back to the early days of the Autobot Elite Guard, delivering a retro-inspired box set filled with never-before-seen characters from the G1 pre-Earth era. Held in Pasadena, California, the event’s theme—Wings of Honor—focused on a forgotten generation of Cybertronian heroes and gave collectors bold redecos of Classics and Universe molds in homage to obscure lore and classic color schemes.
