Chromedome and Rewind, being a pair, will be probably be the 3rd and 4th to be shipped. After them, Treadshot, Thrustinator (BW came last last year) and the Mystery figure. Calling it right now!
The resident Rewind... well, half of one
- Jelze Bunnycat =:3
Looking for:
- TR Furos (Hardhead's head) and Crashbash (lost him
)
- PotP Punch head
- TR Galvatron right arm (the gun one)
- CW Brake-Neck/UW Wildrider, CW Offroad
- TR Twinferno & Grotusque
- Greenlight, Lancer and PotP Elita-1 (plus repro Victorion hands and feet?)

Not sure who it is, but at the rate these are coming out I almost wish next year's subscription would just do 3 sets of 2 figures and maybe save us some cash by shipping that way.
To throw my vote in, I'd like the next figure to be either Chromedome or Rewind.

I got Rampage yesterday and one of the horns was broken on him. I was able to crazy glue it back on. I was surprised that he was just in a polybag with nothing protective around him. I emailed the TFC to see what they say about the broken horn.

Wait no box? I thought these figures always came in some sort of box.

Rampage came in a box, but there was no protection in the box outside a plastic bag he was in. No foam like other years. My box came crushed but thankfully, everything inside was just fine.

I'd say be patient and wait for at least another week-ish. If it's not in by next Friday, I'd start worrying and see about contacting the Club about it.
Speaking of, finally ordered a polybagged Depth Charge with the clearance price. This is going to be a long few days...

speaking of depth charge, does anyone know if there's a fix for that mold having one front stabilizer fin that, due to being slightly misaligned from what I can tell, is pushed out of place by the hip?

But Fisitron has a 2 on his seals where Barricade had a 1 on his.

Right, but I can still hope CD would be the #2 release

Next will very likely be Ironfist, since he was already shown in box with seal stickers labeled 2 and fisitron... though it may be important to note that neither sticker was shown to say BOTH so they could be playing the short con on us. On another note, is anyone else kind of surprised that Barricade's lightbar was switched to opaque plastic, rather than leaving it transparent red and blue like the original prowl?

Guess it was really no surprise thanks to the Club's Tweeting pics of his box before.

This is the only figure I'm not really excited for so I'm kinda glad they didn't save it for last.

So are they ditching the whole "ship a single figure once a month" deal, or is this just a fluke within the system?
EDIT: Never mind, figured it out. Turns out there was a delay in the initial shipping and the coinciding of BotCon, so they decided to ship Ironfist out early to make up for that.

There was another delay this year (thankfully not as late as last year's delay). As this is still a relatively new service, hopefully they'll get the kinks worked out eventually.

Yeah, I figured it out. Please see the above edit.
Thanks, anyway!
