It's the time of the month again, and we're not talking about your better half's menstrual cycle. Transformers Collectors' Club members can rejoice as their bimonthly membership magazine will be arriving at mailboxes soon across the world. This one's numbered at Issue #33, and you might be asking "What's inside?". We've got a better look at the toy for War For Cybertron Megatron. We also get the first picture of the War For Cybertron toy for Megatron's devoted servant, Soundwave. Another first is a glimpse at Generations Red Alert, looking awfully familiar to something we've seen before. We'll leave the rest of the content for you to enjoy on your own.
Keep it at Seibertron.com for the fastest Transformers news on the net!

I'm hoping Hasbro is pulling a Rickroll and making a new toy of Armada Red Alert. I could die a happy man then.

Oh man I completely forgot about the issue coming out in June, too bad I won't see it till sometime in July since I am leaving for Florida this Friday.
Off topic, but I hope nothing good goes up for pre-order between this Friday to June 8th especially the Rodimus Upgrade don't want to miss that.

Head on over the

BigBadToyStore.com to preorder Generations

Wow they got a lot of use out of that one mold: Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, Red Alert, Punch/Counterpunch, Breakdown.
I think Breakdown is my favorite though. I want that figure.

Is there anyway of viewing this issue on the clubs website? I ask because I won't be here when it arrives and I won't be able to see it till sometime in july, just really don't feel like waiting that long.

Well, I live in Seoul, the capital city of South Korea so it is not exactly the middle of nowhere. I highly doubt Generations will get released here anytime soon. Transformers are not big business in Korea. We have the movie line and Galaxy Force out just now. I preordered wave 1 and 3 at bbts to make sure I get them. If they get released here I will feel a bit daft but it is better safe than sorry.

Guess they had some spare light bars from Prowl lying around. Not too shabby.

Wait, so Red Alert is going to be released in America! Sweet! Can't wait to see how more awesome it is that the crummy old Japanese version!

1. Yes they will be.
2. Because BigBadToyStore gets the figures first. Because pre-ordering the figures now solidifies some toy owners that they will be getting the figures without worrying about going through retail.
3. Red Alert is in Generations Wave 3, not Wave 2, and Wave 3 includes;
1x Cybertron Megatron
1x Cybertron Soundwave
1x Darkmount
1x Red Alert

Also, the amount of gas I would spend hunting for figures would far outweigh the $1 or $2 premium at BBTS.

If there's a thread for #33 now, I'll wager it'll be in the mailbox by Saturday. Cause dat's normally how it goes for me. (Yay! Sumfin to look forward too!)
Is it just me, or is Generations Red Alert yet another retool of the U2.0 Sideswipe/Sunstreaker mold? Not that I mind. That's how it's meant to be. They're just milking this body for all it's worth is all.
Good grief though. Gen's working out well...

Yep, as expected.
Pics of Megatron & Soundwave, ehh...too bad non-members like me gotta wait awhile to see it.

Wave 3? Pure sex. I'm sure the scalpers will have a field day...
I'm happy to say that I'm getting seriously more and more excited about BotCon. That Red Alert looks damn sexy too...

Am I the only one who notices that he has both the light bar and turbo charger still?

I thought the same thing at first, but I got to say the Henkei line is much better than Hasbro's poor attempts at a paint job it's well worth the price though every once in awhile Hasbro might do something right. The deal with Thrust being released is awesome but for me I prefer Takara's even though Hasbro actually pulled a pretty good show accurate version, I'll still pick it up but it will be the first figure I leave sealed and as for Unicron I doubt Hasbro will release another but they might, Takara did it with MP Starscream but even still I don't think Hasbro will do any better.

If I'd bought Henkei Ramjet, that's what I'd do as well. Since I didn't, I need to make a point of grabbing Generations Ramjet.

Yes they are. The mold got/is getting almost as much use as a Seeker mold normally does.
I know lots of you save up like I do to try and get these exclusives. Then WHAM a huge slap in the face!!! I love supporting the home team rather than paying these huge mark ups for oversea figures. Not only am i going for a nice complete collection but, a collection with a little value ya know. OH WELL. That's how it goes though everything is a gamble.
