The Transformers Collector's Club has posted a new update regarding the popular Club Exclusive, Sideburn. The updates says that there are VERY LIMITED supplies left after sending out those destined to fans who have already joined the club. For those waiting patiently to get their order in, continue to keep a steady eye on the club store for the next couple of days.
Additionally, the club has announced that they have finalized their deco's for their upcoming 2012 figures. For those that don't remember, Generations Runamuck will be the Club Freebie based upon the Generations Wheeljack/Tracks mold. Generations Runabout is the first Club Exclusives, and he also shares the same mold as Runamuck. Lastly, Shattered Glass Drift, based upon an inverted color scheme of Generations Drift, will be the second Club Exclusive.
The TFCC also has revealed that they will be making images of the mockups available NEXT MONTH to kick off their Fall Membership Drive. In tandem, there will be several contests with excellent prizes again.

You know, it doesn't really make sense to make one Run the freebie and having to pay for the other. I'd have made SG Drift the freebie and put the Runs in a 2-pack. O well.
I must point out that SG Drift indeed has his colors inverted, but he has Blurr's guns instead of his swords.

For those who didn't join the club by the deadline to get a free Sideburn figure, The TFCC has let us know that a very limited stock of sideburn is now available in the club store. The price is $32 for members and $72 for non-members. Get him now, he will go fast. You can order him here.

This is a nice figure for being the freebie, but he's definately not worth $72 for a non-member price!

The Club is really pissing me off this year, I missed out on the G2 Ramjet & I really wanted to order a 2nd one of these in case FansProject Armor shows up at some point. 
It's really temping to skip my renewal next year, I would really be MAD if only ended up with one of the battle chargers!!!

Wow, that's a fast sell out. I did actually manage to order Side Burn from the TFCC a couple of hours ago; I joined the club this June for Runabout and Runamuck, but I always though Side Burn looked good too (and I do own RiD Sideburn). Good to get some feel for the speed at which these sell out; I now know to be very alert around the time SG Drift and Runabout go on sale!

To be fair, that price includes a 2012 membership which is where the extra $40 comes into play.

Does anybody know how long the Member figures usually take to get to the UK? I got the email saying they were to be shipped 28th July, would've thought it would've been here by now.

they are making both battle chargers from the generations wheeljack mold (good news for me because i never got to lay my hands on a generations wheeljack OR tracks). HOWEVER the plan is only one will be a freebee (not sure which) the other will be on sale, ala Ramjet (still want BTW)

Not sure how long it takes to the UK, but the club uses the cheapest (slowest) shipping option available on the free club figure so it might take some time.

Im getting Runamuck and Runabout one way or another. What are you guys thinking referring to them as "the runs" ??? Thats flat out nasty...
Ill jump on SG Drift but Ill be giving him a head from another line, so he will become Classics Dead End. I always thought SG was silly.

Still no sign of Side Burn arriving to me here in the UK. Have any other UK TFCC members got theres yet?

I bought Sideburn when he was available through the Club Store two weeks ago... And I received him yesterday, here in the Netherlands (and I noticed that it was even opened and inspected by customs in that time)! It was sent by FedEx, though (which was probably faster than the shipping for the freebee's), and customs probably thought it was suspicious that shipping cost more than the value of the item shipped!
I didn't receive the Aug/Sept magazine though, and that should have arrived much earlier than Sideburn did. They're sending out a replacement magazine, though.
