not sure I'm all that bothered about comics that are trying to sell toys that'll cost me a few thousand pounds to try and pick up nowadays, the synopsis of which I've read on tfwiki by now for any that interested me. And especially not at $20 for 100pgs. Still, suppose it's cool for those who do want to catch up, or maybe who missed out the first time around and only got the figures on the secondary market.

ARGH! And I just got finished acquiring every and all of the individual magazine issues I had missed out on up to the present (minus issue 34 since it's been completely sold out), having done so by taking advantage of the Fall Sale's discounted prices.

Only reason I'd double dip on these is if there were any completely new content add for these releases, but frankly I hope that doesn't happen since it would feel as though my catching up on all the individual issues would have been for naught.

When I first read the email I thought "hmmm, that sounds pretty cool" but then I got to thinking I'd want to get all the other ones I dont have and then I realised I never really read the comic anyway. >:oP

looking at the art work provided it looks like the first one is just another reprint of "Balancing Act" and "Revelations" story arc which was published in tpb in 2007 Tranformers Cybertron Balancing act. seem pointless to print in such low numbers the only people that will get them will be the 'die hards' and scaplers.

It's the fist six issues of the magazine (not just the comic parts but the whole magazines), containing all the articles, character profiles, and the six part Transformers: Cybertron "Balancing Act" comic from 2005.

If they continue to do this by year, later volumes could contain the following:

Volume 2: 2006 - issues 7-12, "Revelations" (Cybertron comic)
Volume 3: 2007 - issues 13-18, "Crossing Over" (Classics comic)
Volume 4: 2008 - issues 19-24, "Transcendent" (TransTech comic)
Volume 5: 2009 - issues 25-30, "Reunification" (Shattered Glass comic)
Volume 6: 2010 - issues 31-36, "The Coming Storm" (Wings Universe comic)
Volume 7: 2011 - issues 37-42, "Battle Lines" (Wings Universe comic)
Volume 8: 2012 - issues 43-48, "A Flash Forward" (G2-era Wings Universe comic)

So that they can read information not found most anywhere else? A lot of those articles included interviews, behind the scenes bits, making of bits, and other production content not easily available outside of the magazines.

For 20 bucks plus surprisingly cheap S/H I'll jump on this. I'm hoping things are organized nicely so that all the profiles are together and the comics/stories are all grouped in a logical fashion.

I've tried to check out and buy the book 5 tmies already. Every time I go to check out it says that it is not available on the server (404 error). I'm done. They have killed the last bit of interest I had in the club and their products.
