As it is, the horns really mess with the perspective, and while it is not the most in scale head we have done, it definitely looks fine on my shelf. Does that make sense?

Let me put it this way. I never even opened my P/CP. Rampage sits on my shelf with all the other exclusives in robot mode. So, there ya go...

President-prime wrote:I agree. But if you look at the FE Arcee figure,the details are accentuated. The smaller lines and the details are very clear. The color on the Transmutate seems to blend together covering much of the details. It's probably just me.

Seibertron wrote:If I understand what President-prime is saying, he's just stating that the figure is small for the $60 price tag. Exclusives aside, I agree. This figure and it's price aren't for everyone out there. Sabreblade, did you purchase the figure yet?

Transformers Collectors' Club wrote:The container was off loaded yesterday. We are preparing to make the first shipment to you next week and then, due to the BotCon schedule, the second shipment will occur before BotCon. So, your first two figures will come relatively close together.

For those of you on the installment pay plan, we will be billing you the 2nd installment on July 2nd and the final installment on August 26th. Please make a note of those dates so that you can ensure there is enough money/credit in your account. Remember, we will attempt the billing 3X and after the third attempt, the remainder of your subscription will be cancelled and there is no way to reinstate it. Each time we rebill the admin fee is additive.

Your bonus figure will ship with the final shipment in October and only those who complete the full subscription will receive the free bonus figure.

In addition, we would like for all of you to log-in and check/correct your address and while you are there, check your cc information to make sure that it is still valid. Address changes must be made in the system by midnight Monday, May 26th, so that we can prepare the shipping documents that Tuesday morning. Click here to log-in to check your information. Do not log into the club store and make any address changes for this system. The two software systems are independent for shipping addresses. All FSS address changes must be made in the FSS system. All store order address changes must be made in the store system.

Please note that this went to every invoice in the FSS 2.0 system, even if your order did not go through or you cancelled it. We don't have a way to separate the different emails so this was sent to everyone. I apologize for any inconvenience.

Thanks for your support and patience!

Take notice of Optimus Primal's line of, "It was originally an attempt to replicate Starscream's mutant indestructible spark with a Maximal."


Though this toy represents a different universe version of him, the experiment that brithed him was seemingly kept the same.

I wasn't a collector yet when that release happened so... I'm guessing Punch/Counterpunch had a particularly horrible head?

What's cool is that he got his own unique X insignia on his bio card

I'm thinking as long as you've paid in full for TFSS 2.0, you're safe. Again, don't take that as something set in stone, just an assumption.

"Cruel? Justice is always cruel."

Barricade is devoted to his desire to see justice rendered. Unfortunately for the suspects he arrests, that justice is Decepticon justice. He is swift, cruel, and most times ignorant of the facts. Like a hunter studying his prey, Barricade stalks the streets of Cybertron looking for any individual who may be working against the great Decepticon ambition. Anyone acting suspicious is quickly detained and rarely seen again.

Over his career, Barricade had a number of partners: Howlback, Garboil, Nightstalker. Eventually each one requested to be transferred to another officer or precinct, but he ultimately gained a true partner in Frenzy. Frenzy excels at interrogation, although not at all useful in the roles of collecting evidence or tracking persons of interest. He also shows a complete lack of familiarity with Decepticon law. His zeal for inflicting pain until a suspect talks borders on the maniacal, but is crucial to Barricade's perfect case closure rate.
