A few of the later SDCC Q&As that have come out (like this one from TWG (https://thewookieegunner.com/2017/07/27/hasbro-star-wars-emily-cantelupe-joe-ninivaggi-interview/)) have Hasbro confirming Rex as a HASCON exclusive.
I'm guessing it'll mean a fancy box version of Rex and then he'll be in the regular line at some point, but no official confirmation on that. Sounds like the HASCON exclusives will be revealed shortly so hopefully we get a look at the HASCON packaged version soon.

Here (http://io9.gizmodo.com/hasbros-own-convention-will-sell-you-a-giant-transforme-1797331311) (no packaging image released). It sounds like it is just early access/first available there.

I see that io9 says $20 for Rex, so that's a nice surprise to see they aren't adding any "con tax" to those that buy him early there.

****, it does have exclusive packaging and accessories. https://pulse.hasbro.com/news/just-announced-official-hascon-convention-exclusive-merchandise

$25 with exclusive bits sounds more like Hasbro's recent MO.
What if the exclusive is Rex's Phase I helmet? Think they'd be ballsy enough to try that?

no way, my guess is two extra pistols...

Got him!!! ;D
2-2 this Fall...unbelievable.
I had to bail out on my laptop and switch over to my trusty iPad in the middle of checkout, but luckily I was logged in and ready to rock on both devices so it was a smooth transition.
Hope everyone else gets theirs!

Got mine. Although HTS didn't seem to want to work in conjunction with PayPal this morning, so it took a couple of tries to get the order through.
-
I'll be waiting for the regular release which seems to have the better face print. I think the last 6 inch con exclusive I got - well the only - was Jabba. Which I'm planning to sell since I'm moving.
-
Got my order confirmation finally...just waiting on the shipping notice now. The last 2 orders I placed with them got here the following day, so fingers crossed.
-
Rex went back up for order this morning at about 5am ET for a brief period.

Got my shipping notice! ;D
