    Interesting that the shadows for the other four 5.0 figures use CW Streetwise.

    Do we think the different sizes of the shadows is indicative of anything? The first and last are a bit bigger - maybe two more voyagers and two deluxes?

    While I wouldn't make too much out of that, it's certainly fuel for speculation. On that point, I note that the last shadow is even bigger than the first.

    Prayin' to Unicron those are just placeholder shadows.

    But I look forward to that Ramjet. As soon as he and Skywarp are out, I'll have a complete set of Generations Armada Seekers.

    Interesting that the Only Human GI Joe figs are "shared" exclusives. Does this mean they'll be available via other retailers, like online stores?

    More likely they are shared between the Transformers & GI Joe Collectors Club.

    As is stated just above. Shared between the two FunPub clubs. This is actually stated explicitly in the paragraph towards the top (even if it's less clear in the text next to the figures).

    Can someone provide a link to where I can purchase it? I'm findin their website a little confusing. If I get a membership it will mean I get a free Ramjet and will be eligible to buy the SS figures right?

    Also, why wound you announce the deadline a DAY before it? Not even like a weeks notice or anything.

    It's always been March 16th every year, and there have been other reminders to renew in the past few weeks. Somehow, you've apparently only caught this one today. Well, that at least goes to show why the club SHOULD continue making such reminders, even so late in the process.

    As to a link... for what? One of the figures? Just the membership renewal? I'm happy to provide whatever link you might need, but I'm not clear on whether what you're asking for even exists just yet.

    But, yes, if you renew today or tomorrow, you will get Ramjet, and have the opportunity to purchase all of the figures mentioned in the ad.

    (Rather than wait for a response, I'm going to post the membership renewal page here. You still have to choose the option that's best for you. If you're in the US, be sure you look for Third Class, unless you really do want to pay the extra for First Class. I don't think it's worth it, myself.)

    Has the cost been adjusted seeing as the membership doesn't last a year?

    SPOILER:
    The other 4 figures are all going to be Autotroopers. And they're not even new figures. They're just CW Prowl with the Animated Autotrooper head adapted to fit on the Prowl figure. The idea is to combine them with Battle Core Optimus as Holonix Maximus.

    I'm pretty sure the price is the same whether you joined last year or this year.

    So you're saying I shouldn't post something like
    "Stranglehold from T30 Rhinox, Quake from CW Brawl, Crankcase from CW First Aid and Omega Spreem from Cybertron Menasor CONFIRMED"
    ?

    I would be very happy with more larger figures this round (even if it costs more). I know a lot of people want Flywheels, I want Stranglehold, etc. If this is the last run, it'd be great to finish out the fun stuff

    No. But, honestly, I've always considered the bulk of that cost to be going toward the incentive figure, anyway. It's not like you can buy any other club exclusive figures for as cheaply as the cost of a membership.

    Ebay:
    So my subscription doesn't expire until May, and the Club Store software won't let me resub until my old one expires. Can people join the Club after March 16th, or are all of use who need to resub just out of luck???
