Well this is disappointing.It makes me NOT want to re-up on my membership

So you make that call based on a free figure? Puzzling....

I'll re up for this and the other tasty figures to come..

I don't know how I feel about this figure. I'll probably keep him as a Classics Depth Charge - I've done odder homages.

It's not "free", if you did not pay for said subscription to 6 15-page magazines, there would be no figure. Oldest sales trick in the book. at least the Hot Wheels Red Line Club admits to the "free" car never really being free, so I don't see the difference.

If they didn't offer an "incentive" (which it is) then people probably would laugh at the $65 or or $45 you spend for basically a shiny newsletter.

Also they don't use a totally new mold, it's a repaint or repaint/head swap. So really what it costs them to reproduce from the mold with a few minor changes actually doesn't hurt them at all.

I didn't join in 2011 because I did not like Rodimus Sideburn. So I missed a whole year and did not get the G2 Ramjet. So if he does not like what he sees he's smart not to re-up for early-inside information that would only be revealed within a few more days anyway.

Can't blame dude at all for the dislike.

I dislike this figure. Depending on the details of the figure subscription service, I might not be re-upping my membership. If I do, this guy will go on the BST forum as soon as he shows up at my house.

The official Transformers Collectors' Club has posted Robby Musso's official artwork for next year's membership incentive figure Depthcharge, a redeco of HFTD Terradive. The figure and artwork were shown at the BotCon 2012 TFCC panel, but here's a better look at the artwork.

All new and current members who have an active membership as of March 16th, 2013 will receive DEPTHCHARGE, the Transformers Collectors' Club exclusive membership incentive deluxe figure. DEPTHCHARGE is scheduled to ship Spring 2013. You won't want to miss out on this amazing figure!

Also on tap for later THIS year, the all-new Transformers Figure Subscription Service (TFSS). The service will consist of SIX exclusive figures you can only purchase through the Transformers Collectors' Club.

easy pass,...hands down,...

Sorta Dreamwavey but with less puffiness and panel lines, anyone agree?

[Alpha Weltall]

This looks pretty decent and I wouldn't mind getting it at all.

However, I think that the Emperor Palpatine/Imperial Shuttle would make a much better Depthcharge. The white version would be very easy to work with and you could probably use the head from a BW Depthcharge. Not to mention it would be closer to the size of the Beast Wars toy too.

I agree with everything you said. I was merely commenting on the decision to not want re rejoin so he can "avoid" gettting a figure you dont like, just seemed like flawed logic but hey

I've seen the other subscription service figures and believe me..it's worth re uppin..
