BotCon 2008 will be the Official Transformers Convention in 2008, run by Fun Publications. It will be held in Cincinnati, Ohio, from April 24 to 27.
Hype for the convention began on the BotCon website on November 27, 2007, when the entire page was replaced by a giant graphic of a mysterious trio of ominous-looking Autobots, a new logo featuring a purple BotCon logo with a matching purple Autobot symbol, and a spooky video clip featuring a backwards Transformers theme. The video clip also claims that "this spring ... at BotCon 2008 ... everything you thought you knew ... will be ... shattered." In light of these elements, it is likely the convention toy set will have a "mirror universe" theme of evil Autobots, but this has yet to be confirmed.
On November 28, the page was updated with the location, date, and venue.
