This is a good idea. Please expand to regular retail figures for one-stop shopping.

What the heck? Unless they can drop the figure prices, who could afford to do this? Man, I really wanted an RTS RiD Scourge. 
Now I have to look for someone who can help me get one.

Scourge, Slipstream, and those seemingly random Action Masters seems interesting. Maybe I'll sign up and sell any that I don't want on eBay. Or maybe just to users on these forums that really want them.
Ultra Mammoth for the Lulz!
If I do sell the figures here, I won't do it for crazy jacked up prices like on eBay. I'll probably just take the price of the subscription and divide it by the total amount of figures released (i.e. if Subscription were $500, and there were six figures, I'd sell each for $84).
Just to let you guys know.

Well, that's a good thing I believe. More of an adult TF collector club. I would suppose they are trying to compete for our monies now.
Breakdonw, Slipstream, Animated Jackpot, and SCourge are all nice.
Ultra Mammoth, Circuit, not so much. Don't like the Axor head, and well, Big Convoy is a good mold, but not my collection cup of tea.

Urgh, that Slipstream just does not cut it. It has no bustiness... just coz its slender and seems to have heels doesn't make it a worthy mould for Slipstream. Just looks... wrong 
.
I hope we eventually do get a new mould for her, because that mould is PRIME Starscream, and thats it.

Of that bunch, Slipstream definitely might be worth checking out.
And "Ultra Mammoth"---that is so wonderfully cheeseball I don't know if I can resist.
Other than those two, though, pass.

So can someone please explain to be how this subscription service thing works?
Ultra Mammoth: Love, despite/because of the stupid name. This is one of those molds that I always very vaguely wanted but never found at a good price. Plus I love the ridiculousness of a cyan mammoth.
Also is anyone else super-excited that the club are still able to get ahold of Beast Era molds?
Jackpot/Circuit: While I love the idea of obscure characters getting their due I'm not a big fan of those molds, those colour schemes or the characters. A pass.
Slipstream: Not sure if want. I missed out on Starscream but I heard he's good. Don't think much of the character, Prime doesn't need another snarky, over-confident fembot.
Scourge: Bought on sight, obviously.
Breakdown: As much as I love the character I'm a little Breakdown fatigued what with the ROTF and all the Botcon figures. When are Botcon/TFCC gonna admit he's their mascot? Plus I hate that mold.

Breakdown looks beautiful. It's both a blessing and a curse; this mold was DESTINED to be Breakdown, but cursed to be an exclusive.
I would have never thought of using Prime Starscream as Slipstream. Clever move, Hasbro. Clever move...
Scourge is just as I expected; complete badassness. Sad that, like Breakdown, he's an exclusive.
Ultra "Mammoth"? Really? Bad play on words...

Ultra Mammoth is about the only one that interests me, simply for the Ultra Magnus thing. Though I do I need it? I have both Nemesis Prime and Big Convoy, and while it's a brilliant mold, paying who knows how much for UM may just not be worth it.
The only other interest would be Slipstream, that should be a general release so some of us can go wild with repaints.
The rest can go ... away.

I'd be a lot more excited about this subscription service if I was more interested in the figures they were offering. As it is, I only genuinely like one of them (Breakdown) and have interest in one or two others (Shitmold Scourge and maybe Slipstream.) Would be nice if there were different subscriptions that had more dedicated focuses. I don't want anything to do with Least Wars and while I appreciate Animated, I have no use for obscure repaints. Don't even know what to say about Circuit...half-assed mold with a terrible deco, and worst of all, has absolutely no purpose in my collection.

To be fair the figures are varied enough that it would probably be possible to find someone who wants the figures you don't and doesn't want the ones you do. Then split the cost for one subscription.
Given that Club deluxes usually go for $40-$50 I'm a little concerned about the price for Ultra Mammoth...

Wait. Seriously? But...he's a blue mammoth! White, I could see, but blue? (Okay, blue and white, but still.)
And would it have killed them to make him look like G1 Ultra Magnus in robot mode? Blue head, silver antenna, no face plate, colors in the correct order, etc...
I really don't know why I'm complaining. I'm not even gonna buy the danged thing!

Agreed. Definitely the figure I'm most excited for.

I personally also like Ultra Mammoth. It made me want to get the universe Nemesis Prime (but then I looked on eBay and that this is going at like $100-$150).
Some of those picture look very photoshoped and test-shotty. So he might very well look better down the line.

All those figures and only 2 that I want:
For all the rest, you guys can have em'. I've no interest in Animated or G2 and I've already got the Japanese RiD (Car Robots) Scourge, which IMO is far superior to the RTS Prime mold, so meh.
- Mammoth (Big Convoy) as Ultra Magnus. I WILL buy this mold in any color scheme they can dream up. It's one of my favorite TF's of all time!
- Breakdown. It's about f***ing time! I don't know how many times I've thought to myself 'Lamborgini Countache Transformer from G1, just like Sunstreaker and Sideswipe, most obvious repaint EVER and with all the repaints this figure has gotten they STILL haven't given us one!!!! (but now they are, so I am pleased, yesssss)
