Vol. 3 so when did IDW make the trade paperbacks for Vol 1 and 2 for MTMTE?
Starscreamownz
That description has me interested. I can't wait for all the nods to events in the show.
IaconStargazer
Do we even know when the first issue of Rage of the Dinobots will be out?

See I loved the retro cold war art of the Megatron series, but just cannot get over the overly loose plot and dialogue of the recent years by IDW.
artiepants
Ugh, WTH? we have to wait 6 months from Vol. 7 to Vol. 8??? Which means at least another 3-4 months before we get to Vol. 9. We're Talking the 2nd 1/2 of 2013 before we see MTMTE/RID if your a HC trade-waiter like me >>sadface<<
Plus, I think every single time these HCs end up being pushed back 3-6 weeks by the time they are released. I just don't get that, I'd think they'd catch up and put out the HCs 3-4 months after The TPB, not a year + (the stories are going to be nearly 2 years old by then!)

Sweet Mercy I'd be happy if the remainder of Costas run is in Vol.8 Get that garbage out of the way….

Gotcha, thanks. Guess I should start reading some of these new series.

Not really. Well Last stand of the wreckers is popular and got a hardcover version (with a whole lot of extra goodness), All Hail Megatron exists in HC, (contains more than a TPB though). Besides that the upcoming Drift is the only one as far as I know. There is ofc hardcover collections including more stuff than a TPB though, like the IDW Transformers Collections.
masishadow
Do the popular TPB eventually get rereleased in HC usually?
skiss
Wonder who will be on the cover for volume 8. I should be getting my volume 7 in Monday, can't wait to catch up on things.
Predakwon
Yeah I'm only interested in the Classics and the HC so those are what I'll be picking up. But I need the Classic UK goodness!

Thanks for the heads up….will pre-order.

Based on the creative teams, it looks like this may be Devil's Due GI Joe vs TF v3 and v4. I already have v3 in TPB, but it'll be nice to have v4 collected as well. Also need to pick up ReGen One v2 and RiD v3.
