As the Transformers Collectors Club Subscription Service subscriptions deadline looms the TFCC has released an image showing three of the six toys - Breakdown, Slipstream and Circuit - posed together, showing off the three in robot mode with all three looking particularly cool. The picture also shows up the eclectic nature of the selection of characters - from retro G1 classic style through the saturated brightness of 90s Transformers up to the modern style. Check it out! And remember, less than eight hours left to get your subscriptions in to get these three, Ultra Mammoth, Animated Jackpot and Classics RiD Scourge! Head over to the TFCC Homepage to find out more and sign up!

Is there a giant thread for the new picture that I haven't found?

Slipstream and Breakdown look great. Circuit.... not so much.

Beat me to it
I'd want Breakdown if Fansproject weren't doing their own Stunticons.

I felt the same way but I can have an uncombined breakdown so it works for me.

As if I didn't want Slipstream enough as is...stupid subscription service ending a month before my first paycheck. >>

Same thoughts about it

Yea, we are going to be swimming in a sea of Circuits. Gonna be a mad rush to get those on the market. Gonna have to make up for the $20-$30 I get for him with the sale of Ultra Mammoth I think.

Only one I want is Circuit if anyone is selling for cheaps.

::EDIT::
I've been hooked up, no more PMs please.

I know. I really want her, but 50? Not bad. 100 on BBTS? No way in hell.


Circuit doesn't look bad. His head is very Straxus-esc.
Timesynch
Really surprised no one's given us a Dead End repaint using the RTS/United Jazz mold yet (outside of Animated).
Bass X0
I like all three of these. Circuit looks as good as he can do considering his original colors and the mold thats used. He's tall and lanky now but not evil and monstrous looking like Lockdown and Axor do. The bright colors really make him look more Autobot-like.
exclusacon
Skipping these.....got 3rd Party stuff to get....
Jaicen
Did they just put Arcee's head on Starscream's body?
I'm not impressed with any of these. Breakdown looks like a KO.
Feralstorm
Circuit, the giraffe-mecha.
Grimlock_13
These are definitely the best of the bunch IMO. Slipstream is the weak one for me out of these three, but that's because I have no interest the character. Breakdown looks decent, but man it looks like there's some sloppy paint apps on it. Circuit is garish but I love it. I'm just a sucker for Action master homages that can actually transform.

Kudos to the club for having the balls to do Circuit. He's a G1 character and Action master that we would never get otherwise. Not everyone just wants the first 3 years of G1. Many of us want the Vrooms and Doubleheaders and even Circuits of the world to be updated. So many characters never had a chance to shine...
ORIO
Want Slipstream.
ShadowMagnus
meh relieved that I passed on this

Are there really people out there that don't want a new Vroom?

Everyone will be selling Circuit for cheap. Don't worry.

So... I've been thinking.... and I've come to a conclusion that these 3 are just not worth joining the club offer.

I'm not trying to be a snob I just asked myself if these were stacked 5 on each peg in my local TRU would I spend $10 a pop... the answer was no meaning I just wanted them cuz they are going to be "rare"

So I'm out Scourge is cool but not worth it for one toy and Mammoth is overshadowed by Nemesis Prime and I have him.
madhatprime
I really Want Ultra Mammoth. If anyone wants to hook me up at cost, or two figures for 1/3 of the payment I can do that. (when they ship) LMK. I was going to jump on this but bills happened. Been trying to sell off some excess stuff I have to pay for bills. (90s area Star Wars stuff, and car parts)

As for Slipstream and the others, I like them. I was never into the action masters, but I can appreciate why they do obscure characters.

Hooray for unpopular opinions! If I get one I plan to rename mine Circus.

I really wanna see how all 6 look together as a team.

Depthcharge is apparently the leader (though the fiction preview doesn't include Scourge or Mammoth).
TFPrime
I just can't get myself to pull the trigger..was on last step and just..couldn't. 343$ shipped..and it'd only let you select entire quantity...it didn't give you the option of selecting individual figures in multiples...ugh. I want to..but I think I'd rather pay just 200$ on ebay for the Scourge and Mammoth then the 350 for ones I don't want..

Let me edit this..if anyone wants to go in on this set--I just want Scourge and Mammoth..The other 4 I don't want at all..so, if you have money via paypal tonight..maybe we can go at it together.
MetalSymphony
Just got my order in, already worth it with just these Three IMO.

I am a Late G1/G2-er, so i love Action Masters and Circuit is right up my ally. he will look great with my SG Thundercracker and DE Slice....i mean "Defender" Wheeljack. I also like me some Stunticon's so i'm looking forward to Breakdown (and i hope to eventually get the Botcon G2 Redux Breakdown too).

Of these, the one i'm LEAST excited about is Slipstream, since i really don't like the FE Starscream body. Too lanky, balance problems in robot mode and i hate how the legs look in jet mode. Most likely gonna keep her but not 100% sure yet.

I'll save my thoughts on the others for another time
Stygian360
Poor Slipstream still looks 'mannish'. Also wish we could get tighter in and better pics of her (just in case I'm wrong here), even though she is turning out to suck.
Starfire22
Circuit looks awesome. And so does brakedown.

TS slipstream though...

Cyber-Scream
can i haz breakdown?
Fallout
circuit would look leagues better if his face were more discernible...
PredaconElder
Slipstream looks like Starscream in drag.
Tracer
Definitely would have bought Slipstream had they released her at retail.

As a proud owner of an original Circut, I can safely say that the new one's face is 4 times more discernible than the G1 version.
dardmc
great group shot of the 3 tfss exclusives.. i think there is really little love for am circuit.. but im loving this character because he is from g1/g2 era.. and yeah i do agree they should have at least repainted the head more (and will probably be doing it)..
CodeXCDM
Won't have issues parting with them...

Slipstream's idea kinda works... but at the end of the day, thin frame and stilettos do not a fembot make methinks. The head sculpt's not so bad... but IDK.

Breakdown... I've too many versions of that mold tbh... don't care for another rendition. That and FP's Menasor will probably make a very nice combiner/update to this and the other Stunticons.

Circuit is... oi vey... the Axor retool wasn't one I cared for to begin with... It's Lockdown painted as an Autobot. Blech. This repaint give me the same vibe.
PlanckEpoch
I'm liking Slipstream a lot. Glad I got in on the BBTS pre-orders.
KingStyle
In before Circuit actually looks good in-hand..........

HAHA yeah right.
Girl Pants
Can't wait for Circuit. He's going to be a fun nemesis for my Axor in my G2-Classics Section.

I also have a hard time remembering he's an Autobot, I nearly typed "partner" above instead of "nemesis".
Timesynch
Slipstream could use some lipstick though, haha.
Thundershot
I think Pete said the final version will have black lipstick.
Scaleface
Lookie what arrived in the mail today! The club should make a figure like this...

masishadow
Circuit's actually the only one in that group that I want as well. Good thing as he will be super cheap in the secondary market.

I love how the clubs breakdown is nearly identical to the knockoff save for the silver on the chest and the lack of some blue on the legs.
Chris McFeely
Circuit is made of delicious sherbet. I will lick him.
