What do you mean "they removed our member's only section"? Don't you remember when the site crashed that one year due to overwhelming registration numbers? We fans essentially killed the member's only section when the site crashed. Sure, the Club's site was running on outdated technology, so they can be faulted for at least that. But no one "took it away from us", like some form of punishment. It just died when the site went down, and they've been trying to get it back up ever since.Emerje wrote:As far as putting out a digital version, I'm not sure if Fun Pub cares about us as Transformers fans enough to do that. I mean, they removed our member's only section of the site and forum, while the G.I.Joe club still has their forum.
This is what the message said:Va'al wrote:Further, they apparently just said that overseas members will not be receiving a copy, because the printers didn't produce the required number of issues.
So they ARE coming, just later since they're doing a special reprinting of them for the international members.Hello International Members,
We have been informed that the printer/mailer did not mail your issues 7 weeks ago like they should have. In addition, we have also discovered that they lost your issues.
They are reprinting your issues this week and they are scheduled to go into the mail by Monday. We apologize for their mistake and the lateness on this issue. Please look for that issue in your mailbox in about 2 weeks.
Thanks for your support!

I love that mold actually.
But it's so close to the Cybertron Ratchet mold in looks that I am really uninterested.
There was a Ratchet in Transformers: Cybertron?
I think the whole deal with the Ratchet mold in its early revealings is that people were upset we didn't get a Voyager Ratchet. On top of that, the Deluxe was lacking in a lot of paint detail. I don't think a lot of people have a problem with the mold itself.

Er, sorry, Red Alert.
I got my wires crossed and the Japanese name came to me first.

Sabrblade wrote:So, Cannonball is the captain of a crew of non-toy organic aliens?
I... guess it could work, so long as the story makes it work.
Though, since there will be five pirate toys this year, with these organic crewmen thrown into the mix, it must be a big crew.
Yes they did.Henry921 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:So, Cannonball is the captain of a crew of non-toy organic aliens?

Didn't the club say the army builder pack were also pirates?

That's the Aligned Continutiy Star Seekers that you're thinking of. These will be G1 cartoon continuity Star Seekers from the Wings Universe.Downbeat wrote:I wonder if they're going to go back to the idea of Star Seekers being non-Cybertronian transformers, ones that primarily transform into beasts. The Chinese MMO stated that Thundertron recruited the ranks of the Star Seekers from alien robots that turned into animals, they could redeco/remold some Predacons. Or, since they claim Cannonball's the only prime mold in the box set oh god.
Universe 2008 Dinobot redeco/retool. Not digging the idea of that.

In that case, good question.PrymeStriker wrote:Sabrblade wrote:That's the Aligned Continutiy Star Seekers that you're thinking of.

He's wondering whether or not this set will share the aligned continuity's backstory about the Star Seekers being non-Cybertronian and beasts.

Sabrblade wrote:Having finally gotten my TCC magazine issue #55, it sounds like all/most of the TFs in Cannonball's crew will be members of former members of Squadron X. So, not so much pirates as "old Marvel G1 characters who had no toys" like Straxus and Jhiaxus were.
