In-Hand Samples of TFCC Subscription Service Toys

Posted on 08-14-2012 at 03:46 PM by Secretcode under Conventions

The Transformers Collectors Club has just tweeted out an image with in-hand samples of three of the six toys that will available through their subscription service: Robots In Disguise Scourge, Circuit and G1-colored Breakdown. Please note that these toys are early samples, and while they are indicative of the final products, there is still chance that there will be adjustments/tweaks to the various toys.

There is no word regarding the details of the Transformers Collectors Club Subscription Service, including price and time.

UPDATE: Through the TFCC's Facebook page, we now have a shot of Breakdown's robot mode, and a message to keep an eye on the Club's website for the next few days for more information regarding the subscription service.

Stay tuned to TFW2005, as we bring you the latest Transformers News as it happens.

TFCC just tweeted this out. I believe this is our first look at 3 of the figures:

TheBeastman

Sooo...is this like the magazine service but only with figures? I'd love that so much. Someone got info for me?

03Mach1

Scourge and Breakdown are pure win. That other abomination is trade bait. Bring on the Mammoth!!

StayingInTheBox

Scourge looks fucking amazing. I cannot wait for this subscription service to happen.

Soundwinder

There any details on the program yet?

MECHADOOM

I almost expect the Lockdown repaint to have a Ronald McDonald hommage head.

Dat Circuit.

Ah, so this will use the Axor head, I see. Guess I've been out of the loop for that.

It's an Action Master homage, so it goes without saying.

Absolutely!

Can you give us an update on when this subscription service will be available to us? I want me some figures

MidnightBliss

I just want to buy the ones I want. Not all of them.

kaijuguy19

I hope we can get some pics of Slipstream soon.

Autovolt 127

They're Looking Good.

guard convoy

still can't decide if i want to do the subscription service or not, these look really good and i really want ultra mammoth

but the last thing in the world i want to do is give funpub my money

so conflicted

MegaMoonMan

Love Scourge, too bad the club won't take the basic measures that would allow me to own it.

Their loss, not mine. Have fun getting screwed over in new and interesting ways, everybody.

Crystal Convoy

Rubsigns? Can't those things just die?

Pete@BotCon

I think we yanked the Rub sign from Scourge, because, well, he's Scourge...

UTF

Surprised at the Destronger symbols on Scourge. Guess that makes him Black Convoy.

Bass X0

Having owned the original Circuit, this new Circuit looks fun to me.

Scourge_151

Niiiiiiiice

Robogeek28

Depending on price I may need to find someone willing to pick me up a Slipstream.

Grimlock_13

Those are the main three I want, especially Breakdown and Circuit. Scourge is cool but I don't really like that mold OR those idiotic upside down G2 symbols that CR Black Convoy had. It looks ridiculous. Slipstream would be nice to see next. I couldn't care less about Ultra Mammoth and Jackpot would have been AWESOME if it was made from the Classics Jazz mold and not that POS Animated one

Blitz.

im sorta 50/50 on the whole just repaint SideSwide as breakdown but it does still look cool I might even sign up again if its well priced.

DarkSkyfire

6x Scourge please and pass on all the rest...

You can, but it would be more expensive for each individual figure than if you were to buy the set.

Shatterpoint

Circuit makes me hungry for some Rainbow sherbet.

General Tekno

These are looking pretty solid.

Have you guys decided what the plan to ship them is, Pete? If it turns out to be, say, 3 a month I could be down with that, if only because it'll help mitigate international/Canadian shipping pain.

Autovolt 127

Black Convoy deco...I can't believe I didn't notice at first.

Considering I have Black Convoy, This is a definite do want.

And I'm the exact opposite.

Nothing much wrong with either but for me the original Laser Prime was better generally and G2 Breakdown is more fun. Circuit is great, but I still wish we'd gotten the mould as Slicer.

Still not sure I can be bothered, the toys look good but I'm undecided as to how many of them I really want. Plus the club are still failing, still no forum and comics not arriving are not confidence inspiring.

Onslaught24

Pete, how's this service thing gonna work out? or are you guys gonna reveal that later on? cause i really want the Scourge and BD figures

TacomaPrime

From the tfcc facebook page

General Tekno

Breakdown's looking pretty good. Though admittedly, I think the head worked better in G2 colors.

Bass X0

Next we need a G2 colored Animated Breakdown.

SCPrime

can you order certain figures through this "subscription" process or you have to order all the figures?

Blitz.

yeah.... still not quite sold on the side swipe repainting concept

Neo Vox

It'd be awesome if Scourge's rubsign on the roof was an upside-down G2 insignia.

Thundershot

Circuit looks great. It's a G1 character that Hasbro will NEVER give us. Also an Action master to boot. So many unmined characters...

I'm all in for the sub if its under $400 shipped. I also hope we get a "surprise" 7th character as a bonus for those of us doing the sub all the way...

Edgewise

Breakdown's looking like his "pure" white and a somewhat vivid blue.

Pete, any chance to change it to the actual G1 toy colors of "off" white/beige and a more subdued blue?

(Or maybe it is, and it's just the camera/photo/screen making it look that way???)

Destron23

I was hoping there'd be a pic of TFA Jackpot just to see if he had a new head or not. LOL

LCDR Blindside

So this is the fourth or fifth exclusive Breakdown toy?

seeker311

Pete, any news on the packaging? will it be those nice boxes or just baggies?

At Botcon they said there won't be any special giant boxes for these. I'm guessing baggies inside shipping container.

That's cool with me.

Now, gimmie some info!!!

kibble

Too bad Scourge isn't the freebie...he's about the only one I want from the sub...and the freebie really sucks this year! Breakdown is cool, too, but I'll just wait for the one that actually combines, there.

Pencoin

Scrouge looks very nice, I wonder how he looks with Battle Tanker, maybe Maketoys will do a special version of Battle Tanker for it.

Circuit is great also, not too keen on the head he will be having, but maybe Dr.Wu or someone like that will do a new head more accurate to the original toy, otherwise he just looks like Axor's camp twin brother.

Breakdown is pretty worthless to me though, the Fansproject one is going to be the one to get.

MrFX

Breakdown and Scourge look nice. Won't be giving the club my money, but they look nice.

1994 - G2 Breakdown
2004 - AM G2 Breakdown (sorta unofficial)
2010 - Classics G2 Breakdown
2011 - Animated Breakdown
2012(?) - Classics Breakdown

So depends on if you count the unofficial one...
