So Spinister gets a belt fed machine gun, double Targetmasters, six missiles and a double gatling Vulcan gun?
It's enough to make an Ork feel like a Snotling.

I notice that until you said something, but it does look a lot better.

The base photography are of Hasbro's hand-painted samples. Due to the way the light hits the paint opposed to plastic, it is very difficult to get Photoshopped colors to look "right". Especially with obnoxiously (and gloriously) loud colors like the 1988 Targetmasters.

EYESOR!!!! LMFAO.... Oh hell...laughing so hard I have tears in my eyes! You do realize that you probably just gave someone out there the idea to do a Day-Glo, Gen 2 custom disasterpiece....

Black FTW

I REALLY hope they don't stick with that name. Even just "Mayhem" would be fine.. but only Energon combiners should have Maximus at the end..

Though I'm not on twitter, so I'll probably just be praying to Primus on this one. Still, great call on the club's part in giving us a choice!
Posted by Bounti76 on August 21st, 2015 @ 4:01am CDT
I do like that the club is giving us a little input on the design, especially when we're the ones buying these. I just wish they had a way for each club member to have a vote on things like this, especially those of us without Twitter.

Well, Optimus Maximus is already out there, so even if they change what they're calling MayMax, it'd kinda be closing the barn door after the horse made of five smaller horses has bolted.

Okie dokie, here are the options:thundershot wrote:Surely if we can still vote on a paint app, then the name isn't set in stone either. Why not let us vote on two or three options?

Funny, "puny fighter jet" is exactly how I remember him Shaped like a bomber, sure, but I can't remember any fiction or toys that would drive justification of making it a Voyager. Not that it couldn't be cool, just don't think that would be satisfying to me.Rated X wrote:I still say that they should have used the silverbolt mold for windsweeper. He was a damn B1 bomber not a puny fighter jet.

Hello all,
There is only ONE WEEK LEFT to place your pre-order for the Transformers Collectors' Club Figure Subscription Service version 4.0!
The order period will be open through September 2nd. During this last week, get ready for our THREE DAY BIG REVEAL EVENT! On Thursday we will be showing the final robot and alt modes for Bludgeon, Friday we show Impactor and on Saturday we will be revealing the combined form for the Mayhem Attack Squad! In addition to the new head sculpts for Bludgeon and Impactor, the combined mode of the 5 figures that make up the Mayhem Attack Squad will feature a brand new head sculpt as well!
The service is available to anyone who is a member of the Transformers Collectors’ Club. The cost of this additional service is $297 (plus shipping). You can pay all at once or in 3 installments. As a reminder, the 6 toys that make up the COMBINER WARS themed TFSS 4.0 are: Bludgeon, Windsweeper, Spinister, Ruckus and Needlenose (The Mayhem Attack Squad) along with Impactor (Leader of the Wreckers). In addition to that you will receive a BONUS 7th figure to be mailed out with your final shipment (The identity of the 7th figure will be revealed once you get your final shipment.)
A reminder: Like with the TFSS 3.0, we do not anticipate having any extra individual units of the 6 figures for sale in the TCC Store, so your best bet to ensure you get these great figures is to order your TFSS 4.0 today!
Keep an eye on TransformersClub.com and on our official Facebook and Twitter pages for all the latest news!
