    Hi,

    I just checked today the Transformers updates on ComiXology and I found both Allspark Almanacs available. I know many people likes this material and wants it. With those releases, every IDW Animated (Transformers Animated, The Arrival, Bots of Science and the Almanacs) are now available in digital format.

    Just bought my "copies", so I can keep my physical books in good condition. Which is a hard task when you read many times.

    I never got the second almanac, and my interest in the Animated continuity has waned incredibly, how much cheaper is it? I only really am interested in reading about S4 and the unproduced figures...

    The original was just $20, and I'm pretty sure at LEAST 55% of the second almanac covers S4 concept material alone.

    Yes. The version in "The Arrival" and the one in "Adventures In Reading: Bots Of Science" are both available. I have all those books on dead trees format, but is more practical to read them at my tablet or even my cellphone. I can bring all Animated publications in my pocket. Take a look at ComiXology.

    (Oh... not all... missing FunPub "The Stunti-Con Job" and the "AllSpark Almanac Addendum"... probably I won't have those in digital format until the end of times...)

    US$7.99 each Almanac. To me is a good price for more than 200 pages of nice stuff :D

    these are fantastic books, anyone with any interest in TF Animated should probably try these if the actual books are hard to get now. Can't imagine wanting the digital version over the physical book, though.

    I see only second volume, everyone does? Or it's regional issues all over again and there are both?

    Both volumes are available (bought both yesterday). Maybe regional issues... but I can't imagine how the second volume can be fine and first one is not. A contact to ComiXology customer services is a good way to know what is happening.
