But it seems like they'll still be handling the Figure Subscription Service next year unless that counts as a 2016 project since you need a 2016 membership to buy them.

I'm still convinced that they're going to try to squeeze those in by the end of the year. Admittedly, they'll have to move pretty quickly after BotCon to make that happen.

There's a few reasons why that is unlikely:

1) They likely wouldn't be able to run a payment plan if they have to handle everything by the end of the year. And asking full payment would be too much for those on the 4.0 payment plan.

2) It'd be too close to the final 4.0 release. The first figure in a sub usually comes in the spring, it's hard to believe they'd have the resources to push out seven sub figures that fast.

3) If they were to do that then between two sets of sub figures, BotCon exclusives, the Membership figure, and store figures they'd be releasing more than two dozen figures in a year which would be exceptionally difficult for a company of Fun Pub's size to coordinate.

I think as long as they're getting people to sign up in 2016 and placing they're order with the factory they're being allowed to continue operating the sub. In reality this wouldn't be all that different from a store exclusive, just spread out over a year.

Question 1: I just got the e-mail about March 16th being the last day that you can join the Transformers Club. My membership is set to expire at the beginning of September. What do I need to do to make sure that I get the TCC magazine issues that come out after September?

<snip>

So if you want to be sure to get all of the TCC issues you would have to sign up by March 16th if your subscription ends any time after March 16th but still during 2016, otherwise you run the risk of trying to buy them through the store which might not even exist.

Fantastic.

Today is the last day to preregister for BotCon 2016 as a Primus, Golden Ticket Primus, Protoform or Minicon package holder. Also, if you have not yet added your Judd Nelson VIP Pass, today is the last day to add that to your attending package via the BotCon online registering system.

Two big announcements on this final day! First, we are thrilled to announce that Casey Coller and Josh Perez provided the artwork for this years Judd Nelson VIP Pass art print! Casey and Josh are just two of the OVER TWENTY TRANSFORMERS ARTISTS that will be set up in the BotCon 2016 Artists’ Alley.

Our other big announcement is that our final guest for BotCon 2016 is none other than Aaron Archer!

Aaron was also part of the Hasbro team that worked with Paramount and Michael Bay to bring the Transformers to life across four films and Transformers: The Ride. During Aaron’s time on Transformers he worked to expand the Transformers mythos beyond toys to publishing, television, movies, video games, and fan conventions.
