I’ve talked quite a bit about the UK Convention Roll Out Roll Call III on the What’s on Joe Mind podcast (in fact, this week’s episode will feature an interview with David Tree, who is the mastermind behind the convention), but I haven’t mentioned it here on the site lately.
With HissTank.com member “Blot” revealing the awesome Roll Out Roll Call III exclusives, this seemed like a good time to do it!
The infamous Cobra Snake Armor will make a huge, triumphant return at Roll Out Roll Call III, with a whole new aesthetic! But, wait… that’s not all! There will also be an exclusive Red Shadow “Dreadnaught” featuring an awesome G.I. Joe/ Transformers crossover… and an o-ring Baron Ironblood!
These are some truly awesome looking exclusives…makes me want to run out and buy a plane ticket.
Check out these amazing exclusives mirrored below.

Those are pretty awesome!
Aw man, I really want that Dreadnaught. Damn.
Some points of confusion for me:
(1) Is the only one that comes with a figure the Dreadnaught?
(2) Is this new tooling? I haven’t seen it before… if so, how can they afford that for such a limited exclusive??
The Dreadnaught IS the figure.
As Mike said, the Dreadnaught is the actual figure. It uses a Transformers Cliffjumper figure as the base. As for tooling costs, I couldn’t tell you for sure. Yes, tooling is expensive, but third party companies have been doing it with the Transformers brand for a while.
For some great insight on the production process, I’d recommend listening to the What’s on Joe Mind podcast where we interview Dave Tree about this Con and these exclusives:

OK, not being familiar with Transformers, I have no idea which of the above pieces is the Dreadnaught…
So, I take it there are no GI Joe figures included in any of this? Three different DNAKE armors and a Transformers Dreadnaught?
What I want is those SNAKEs… always loved the SNAKE as a kid, and these look even better. Oh well… I hate exclusives.
