    So.. is this supposed to be Generations Deluxe… deluxe? Sounds like more than a reprint. It won’t let me order right now..

    I’m still hoping for a third book that continues where Beast Generation left off (AEC).

    Did we ever find out what the “R” is for? (I know it means “returns”) I own the original and the reprint, and just curious if there’s anything new or just that the book “returns”.

    Thank you. No need to get, then. However, anyone who doesn’t have it already and is a G1 fan should absolutely own this.

    I hope that they’re already working on the third book. The BW (and RID) one was a great sequel!
