IDW is well-known for offering some of the most amazing convention exclusives among comics publishers, selling variants of their deluxe Artist’s Editions, as well as less pricey books and comics.
So here’s the list, keyed to the graphic above, taken from the IDW PR. You can click to enlarge the above image, and, most importantly, you don’t need to brave the hordes at Comic-Con… you can order certain copies via their website for pickup at the Con! (Check the end of the PR… there will be URLs.) (Of course, you can also buy them on eBay afterwards… use the money you would have spent traveling to CCI!)
Of course… the regular, everyday, everyone-and-her-cool-uncle-has-one editions will be available via IDW and your local comics retailer.

Speaking as a lifelong Micronauts fan, I have to ask, WHAT CARTOON? What the hell is Scott even talking about?
Micronauts never once had a cartoon, it was from before the boom of Reagan-era toy-cartoon tie-ins. It had a comic adaptation with Marvel and that was it. The Japanese Microman line it was based on got a reboot in 1999 and an anime then, but neither ever made it to Western shores.
