Also included was mention that Figure Subscription Service 5.0 will be shipping late in the year, manufacturing issues included, and the figures will be arriving in groups of 2 now. You can see the whole email update below.

Hello members,

As we get closer to the end of the club we have a couple of updates on our final TF related products. You can now pre-order the:

(PRE-ORDER) 2016 G.I. Joe Club/Transformers Club Crossover Exclusive 5 pack(Scarlett Ninja Force, Dr. Sidney Biggles-Jones, Cobra Commander, Megatron, Ratbat) 1 set $129 +shipping (PLEASE DO NOT ADD ANY IN-STOCK ITEMS TO THIS PRE-ORDER)

These items will ship to you just before Christmas if the current schedule holds. As with the FSS 5.0 order policy, any member or former member back to about mid 2012 that is in the current online system can log in and pre-order these items. Remember that the quantities are being split between the two clubs.

As for the

due to delays at the manufacturer, these should arrive in time to ship around the end of the year. However, there has been a change in the process. These figures will be packed into only three shipments, 2 figures, 2 figures and the final 2 figures with the bonus figure.

This means that there will be an installment payment due in January and one in February. The billing dates will not be set until we know the shipment is on it's way here.

Thanks for your continued support!

Pete Sinclair from the Transformers Collectors' Club was recently on the Cybercast Podcast and answered a few questions about BotCon 2016 and dropped hints about the souvenir figures and some future TFCC offerings. The following includes a few of the most interesting points Pete talked about.

Here are a few of the hints dropped about BotCon 2016 toys.

• 9 of the figures uses Combiner Wars molds including the custom class figure
• The souvenir centerpiece figure does not use a CW mold
• One of the toys "Uses a not yet released in U.S. headsculpt
• Souvenir figures will be sold individually outside the troop builder set

Pete also answered a few TFCC questions. When asked if there is still plans for more human characters from G.I. Joe figures, Pete answered that they plan to make "Only Human" Rodimus and Arcee. These figures be carded. More to be revealed at a later date. The next issue of the Club Magazine features the packaging reveal of the 2016 Club exclusive Skywarp. The issue will also feature the 2016 membership incentive figure Ramjet and will have Transformers Subscription Service 5.0 reveals.

What do you think about the BotCon figure hints? Do they give you an idea of what the souvenir figures will be? Discuss your ideas in the Energon Pub.

Courtesy of fellow Seibertronian TF_JW - via the Transformers Collectors' Club Facebook page - we get our first look at the final mock-up for Armada Skywarp, first revealed here. A remold of Generations Armada Starscream, Skywarp will feature his signature mouth-plated and horned head design, and will be one of the Club Store exclusive for 2016.



This image was also accompanied by the following details on next year's club subscription:

"If you are not currently a Transformers Collectors' Club (TCC) member OR if you need to renew, now is the time! Issue 67 of the TCC magazine will be the first issue of 2016 and will feature some AMAZING content! A selection of never before seen items, the start of the 2016 storyline (if you are a G1 fan you should REALLY dig this) and a look at the art for the 2016 Free Membership Incentive Figure RAMJET!

For those of you that enjoy the TCC Prose fiction, we have some big plans for 2016 as well! We will be announcing those plans in the next Issue of the magazine (A hint, it will tie in to the TFSS 5.0!)

Thank you to everyone who has made the TCC a part of your Transformers hobby! It is hard to believe that Ramjet is our 12th Membership Figure and we can't wait to show you the final samples with the NEW head sculpt!"

Don't forget to let us know what you think of him in the discussion. Do you like Skywarp more than Ramjet? Are you going to get him to complete the Armada 'Seeker Trio'? Let us know!

The final mock-up for Membership Incentive Ramjet was shown at this weekend's Roll Out Roll Call. This image also appears on TransformersClub.com. Also shown was the head design sketch and a graphic that shows how the head transforms so that it can keep the giant head fin that Universe Ramjet/Armada Skywarp have. The head fin tilts back on a ball joint. Check out the image below and join our discussion here.

Universe Ramjet was originally revealed back at BotCon 2015 during the Club panel. It was revealed alongside his mold mate of Armada Skywarp, which also uses this unique head sculpt. Our coverage of the Club's BotCon panel can be found by clicking here.

Memberships active as of March 16th 2016 will receive Ramjet. Members will also get the opportunity to purchase Armada Skywarp, and the 3 3/4" Rodimus and Arcee figures that were shown at BotCon 2015. More updates to come on TransformersClub.com.

Hello all, I have a quick update this morning on the next Transformers Figure Subscription Service for all those wondering when orders will start:

The order period for the TFSS 4.0 will begin in August and will cover two pay periods to help those wanting to pay in full upfront. Of course if you do need to spread your payments out rather than pay in one lump sum, there is, as always, the 3 payment installment plan as well. The TCC expect to start taking orders for the TFSS 4.0 starting around the middle of the month.

Stay tuned for additional information on all six TFSS 4.0 figures - Bludgeon, Ruckus, Windsweeper, Spinister, Needlenose and Impactor.

And remember, anyone who completes the subscription will receive a FREE Bonus 7th Deluxe Class Combiner Wars figure!

The second big panel from BotCon 2015 Saturday, after the Hasbro Transformers products (summary here and display gallery here!) is the Transformers Collectors' Club panel, featuring Pete Sinclair, Brian Savage and Lanny Lathem.

The discussion revolved mostly around the Cybertron Most Wanted set released for the 2015 event, with artwork by Dan Khanna, and the confirmation that Oilmaster was indeed based on a Pretender prototype shown at Botcon '96. They also discussed some of the original names and incarnations of the original character the souvenir sets are paying homage to.

But the big news, you ask..? Before you head over to the Seibertron.com gallery here, read on below!

The next TFCC Free membership incentive figure is Universe Ramjet from the Armada Starscream mold which will be used for Armada Skywarp (both have new head sculpt) for subscription service!

"Human" Arcee and Rodimus figures to be made based on "Being Human" episode, individually carded on Joe style cards (these crossovers will be available to both clubs)!

Mid august order period (tentative) for subscription service 4.0, and 6th subscription figure will be revealed late July or August.

Hopping onto the Combiner Wars train, the Club will release Mayhem Maximus, made out of: Windsweeper, Ruckus (from Offroad), Spinister form Alpha Bravo (with Targetmasters), Needlenose from Firefly sculpt (with Targetmasters), and body component Bludgeon from Onslaught!
