In the ultimate troll, FunPub would announce and release the 6 repainted Deluxe Seekers but then the mystery figure would be the fabled Starscream torso from Cyclonus (complete with new heads, an actual crown, and a cape).

So King Starscream happens, but you had to gamble on TFCC 5.0.

 

You know, even if it does (which strikes me as unlikely, as they would have been especially close to the pre-order numbers this time, what with the club no longer technically existing and all. They wouldn't need extras for any reason except perhaps as a buffer against defects), I can't imagine you wouldn't get a better price on eBay or via BBTS or something similar.

AND you wouldn't have to wait for something that might never actually happen.

 

Thanks for the photos SeiberBirdR! It would be funny if the final figure is Jazz.

 

Is... that... my mom's table?

 

Curious observation, club is closed, now they get frontpaged as news? Has the ban been lifted?

Looking forward to getting my figures tomorrow, says the tracking info I have. Cool figures, will likely not do any combiners as, like Thunder Mayhem, the individual bots and cons are just too good on their own.

 

Yes. Everyone does their unboxing videos/photo shoots at your mom's house.

I think the deal was about releasing FP-generated news. This is fan-generated. TFW doesn't front-page the Club sales announcements, for example. Or no one cares anymore since FP can't release news anymore

 

Well not to crazy about life line so I will be selling the two extras I have

 

Oh yeah, I had forgotten about that ban on news because who the news was about despite it being news.

 

Do you want "doing your mom" jokes? Because that's how we get "doing your mom" jokes.

In all seriousness that is a black extendable Ikea table with those wine & grape deco dinner mats, a vintage steel sowing machine, and some organic health drink. In other words, my wife had been doing stuff on the table.

Rooms that I decorate look more like the attached.

 

There was never a ban.

 

Weren't new toy arrivals always an exception?

 

 

This and the guacamole masher are what confused me.  

 

Pretty certain it primarily applied to FunPub's "Botcon"...that any convention news was to be isolated to the convention forum and not frontpaged. Mostly because of the fact that Seibertron was chosen as the primary site for breaking news about the convention. Most of the politics beyond that was buried in mod forums, most likely, but that was the result.

 

What Scorponok is that based off? It sure isn\'t G1. Is it Armada?

 

If they're doing all three shipments in one box like this. The next two boxes are going to be huge.

Beast Wars. It's based a bit more on his toy colors, than his show colors.

 

Get a ziploc baggy?

 

It's supposed to be Cybertron mode Beast Wars Scorponok.
