Thanks!

Orders are available through September 2nd, 2015.

Some other exciting details about this year's figures are also revealed through the order page, including confirmation that Bludgeon will include two "Cyber-Blade" Swords. Additionally, it looks like Impactor will not only include a weapons pack of hand attachments, but a shoulder cannon and "Messatine photon" launcher accessory!

You can discuss this year's TFSS figures by replying to this post, and keep it locked right here at Seibertron.com for all the latest exciting Transformers Collector's Club news!

That price isn't too bad really. I got mine put in and ready!

[leokearon]

They look nice but the price is too much.

Major kudos for keeping it in line with the past couple years. Always nice to see Transformers toys do something other than go up, up, up, and up in price.

[Brakethrough]

While my real hope would have been for a combiner of the Scavengers out of IDW's comics, this is going to be a welcome curiosity for my collection. I haven't been as excited about a club offering since the battlechargers!

[Mindmaster]

Bludgeon has two swords and Impactor gets a friggin' armory?

Ugh, the temptation is real...

[steals_your_goats]

I'm quite excited for this set and this will be my first time joining the collectors club. It's going to be another week or so until I join so to those of you who have ordered already, how much would I have to put down for this set?

[Lbsammills51]

All six are up on BBTS, for those that want to go that route.

[MrHankey666]

I'm so in for this set, totally worth the $25 import fee I get hit with every time one of these things drops through my mailbox. Made all the sweeter with Ruckus, earliest TF memory I have is playing with him in pre-school. I know it will never happen but if Carnivac ends up as the bonus figure I would be over the moon.

[JETFIRE XL]

I think I'm going to pass on 4.0.I have done all three years so far but after the problems with a figure in the last series 3.0 Nacelle I just don't know.

[prjkt]

now I've actually got some cash put away for this (unlike last time) I can actually splurge for the whole lot in one hit...

[Zeedust]

I'd be willing to bet that some of the weapons named on the order page are going to turn out to be the combiner kibble guns. In Impactor's case, probably the "Messatine photon launcher"

Price is less steep than expected, hopefully I can scrape it together.

That was my assumption too, based on each figure having at least two weapons, even if only one was pictured.


One membership related question, if I accidentally forget to renew my membership next April when it's up for renewal, what happens with the TFSS if I've already paid for it?

[Rated X]

I wonder how many people who say 3rd party combiners are too expensive will spend $300 on this.

Im gonna order sometime in the middle of the month right after I pay my credit card up. Wish there was an option to skip impactor and knock 50 bucks off. MMC is doing a better version of the character.

[durroth]

I'm torn. On one hand, I want it. on the other hand, since subscribing to 2.0 last year I have received one figure with a missing pin (chromedome, actually not the worst error ever because it stayed on 90% of the time and I could pop it off and make him a pirate, so I was reluctant to exchange it for a new one, but I did anyway), one figure with the waist installed backwards (Rewind), and one figure missing a nipple (Nacelle). I really want to see the combiner head.

Speaking of weapons, I wonder which (if any) of the additional weapons being included will be an original mold, and where the rest will come from. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see them use some Construct-Bots weapons like they did for Oilmaster.

And what happens if I pay for the FSS and then intentionally choose not to renew my club membership?

[jogunwarrior]

I was really looking forward to this set, but some other expenses have come up over the last few weeks that put a damper on my ability to subscribe. there were three figures I wanted anyway out of the six, so I may try to pick them up individually on the secondary market.
I considered pre-ordering them on BBTS, but at $85 per figure that is a tough pill to swallow.
If the deadline to order is extended into October that changes things and I could probably go ahead and subscribe.

[Bumblevivisector]

Although the mystery figure will probably be a scout, I'm really hoping it turns out to be Crankcase as an alternate limb. Even though we already got an update of him from the GF/C First Aid mold, CW First Aid's head would be perfect for Crankcase (and what a strange coincidence THAT be...) and I want all 3 Triggercons done CW style. Even though the current Mayhem limb-lineup jives nicely with Thunderwing's Matrix Questin' crew, Crankcase did show up on that one cover, so it'd make more sense to do him than finish off the Double Targetmasters with Quake from Brawl.

[TF_JW]

It's been revealed that the 7th figure is also a Combiner Wars Deluxe.

As much as I want them to do Crankcase and Quake, I kinda doubt either of them would be a character Karl Hartman lobbied years to get...

Also it's confirmed to be a deluxe CW figure.

Maybe the 2017 freebie and extra can be Guzzle and Quake since they like sharing molds for those two slots. That would just leave getting Crankcase so we can finish both the Decepticon double Targetmasters and Triggercons.

It'd have been much nicer to get them as a retail release instead of two superfluous teams, they could have made skylynx a secondary wavemate, and made the purple griffon guy () the main release

So I HAVE to be a member of the club AND pay for the whole service?

I can't just say "'sup! Can I has Impactor? I giz you money if youz do but don't wanna join your club. I iz poor Australian suffering from low dollarz valuez"?

Yeah you have to pay them to pay them to buy the figures, probably my biggest problem with it

[TF_JW]

You do get an 8th figure while doing so, of course. Ramjet comes with the Club Membership, then there are the 7 Subscription figures.

They're sold as a set, kinda like how you couldn't take just one member of a Mini-Con team from Armada out of the package and buy it on its own. Same principle, just more expensive by several orders of magnitude.

So you get seven figures and some money back via eBay.
