Blurrz? It's called "ReGeneration One" and not Regenration. ;)

Besides that, I have to confess that I want to get the collected edition now. However, I am conflicted with that thought as I think I will like the second story arc more and prefer hardback over paperback.

And wait... Is that Galvatron I see?! :shock: Interesting. :-?
Slimming down my collecting in favor of refocusing on both Japanese exclusive G1 (re)issues (1985-1987) and Super GT pieces. All profits from the pieces I sell will go towards getting my "Encore" Fortress Maximus graded by AFA (current estimate: $200, before shipping).

PLEASE CLICK HERE FOR WHAT I HAVE FOR SALE!!!.

Thank you. (^_^)v

COLLECTION STATUS:

ENCORE: 5
Super GT: 0/2 (hopefully 3)

I guess Galvatron survived the Maximus-administered bitch-slapping.

Hmmmm... I guess Marvel/IDW G1 Maximus was not Autopimp enough to put Galvatron in his place. :lol:

Yes. Simply because they would be foolish not to add it, as it is part of the series. :PEACE:

Really? Because it was an actual issue, it recapped the events that the reader needs to know before reading issue 81, and not many readers did not get it. So them not adding it would not make for a good first volume. :???:
