IDW Publishing August 2015 Transformers Comics Solicitations: Beast Wars, RID, G.I. Joe

Postby SW's SilverHammer » Wed May 20, 2015 2:03 am

Motto: "The  days  grow  shorter,  and  yet  the  sun  still  shines"
Weapon: Electron Scimitar Sword
IDW publishing has recently released information of August 2015's comic selection. Including, among other things; the nature of love, hate, Tracks, and Needlenose. Guilt in all it's respects, What happens when nature lies, and Robots in disguise, as well as combining.
Standard Retail Cover

EDIT by Va'al - Wanted to unload the thread with images.
For future record, we receive the solicits directly from IDW, so there is no need to post all of the covers in the thread! I had this story ready from yesterday, but was asked to wait until 20/05 to post.

Thanks!

It's because Va'al sometimes sleeps and works, too. Despite all evidence to the contrary. :P

This is sweet! Cant wait for some Tracks finally and Needlenose is a pretty cool Decepticon too. I can only hope that we get a new non-combiner figure Tracks now. I dont collect Masterpiece so that Tracks is out and the one from a few years ago just doesnt look good to me. Too fat and I prefer Tracks to be a 70's vette. If not Tracks may be me first MP figure besides Rumble & Buzzsaw. I was hoping that the Beast Wars guys would be a new colony, so this makes me happy to be an IDW Transformers comic fan these days.

I've never been a Beast Wars fan really. I dont dislike it, I just never got into it. Them being introduced like this has me stoked. I'll probably regret not getting Rhinox now :(
I have been into transformers since 1984.
While I love G1 I also love new innovations and takes on the characters.
I prefer official Hasbro releases of stuff for the most part
I'm not a huge fan of Japanese original Transformers media or designs.
It's easier for me to say which are my LEAST favorite toy lines: Beast Machines, Robots in Disguise.
TFCon List: Classics Skywarp, General Optimus, BW Airrazor, Transmetal Tarantulus, Alternity Prime, Fire Convoy

I'll be interesting to see what they do with Rattrap and Waspinator, and possibly Sky-Byte going forward. Maybe they'll head over to the Beast Colony!

Hmm, there's a thought. What DID happen to Rhinox after he met Trion, Nova and Galvatron?
