What does that even mean? How is trying to interpret handwriting a good thing? | What needs to be interpreted? Isn't it basically just an order form? |

Clearly that picture came from something other than a production version, which certainly isn't unheard of.  Transforming Seminarian, home of the The Transformers Convention Exclusive data sheet.

It's not like they bought officially released product. They chose to spend gobs of money on those figures. That's like saying it's unfair for them to release figures at retail once people have paid out the nose for early samples. |

I think this one is really going to grab people. Quote: |
- They will then be moving on to Shattered Glass Prose, and where possible, we are getting some elements of the AFD jokes. The first is Dungeons and Dinobots, a sample picture was shown with Grimlock saying "Quite the precarious predicament, wot?". There will be two more strips in addition to this one and a Club Exclusive Shatteredverse toy.
| I'm glad this one went over well. We've got exciting stuff in mind. Quote: |
- Speaking of Shattered Glass, you too can own a Shattered Glass Nemesis Prime! Brian joked that the Classics Ultra Magnus would fit the bill, and also be the happiest buy you know.
| Heh, I made the same reference at the comic panel. I imagine him as a very helpful Bizarro.
Here's the big deal with the club, which was mentioned at the panel: the bigger the club, the better we can make it. Plus, there's a friendly competition between the Joe and TF club heads to see who gets the most memberships each month. Get your friends to join and show 'em which fandom is the best

#1.) To Allow Others To Have a Chance.
That's my truthful and honest answer to that.
