We have an update for you on the shipping progress of the TFSS 5.0 set of figures. As you remember, the figures have been delayed, but we can pass along the word that the container containing the figures has arrived and orders are to be sorted this week! If you ordered these figures, you do need to log in and verify your address before 5pm Tuesday to receive the figures. We have quoted the full email below.

Hello subscribers!

Believe it or not the container is FINALLY here!
We will be preparing your first of three shipments this week so we need you to log in and verify your address on file by 5 pm on Tuesday March 14.
We have packed this final version in sets of two so you will only receive 3 shipments instead of 6.
Also for those of you on the installment payment plan, the billing dates will be April 3rd and May 1st. Please make sure your CC on file is current and correct.

Thanks for your patience!

Courtesy of this tweet from Twitter user Autovolt, we have a new image of a figure that was once in TFCC's plans before being unfortunately cancelled - an apparently fully Cybertronian counterpart to Sari Sumdac from Transformers: Animated, presumably transplanted into a non-Animated continuity! While it is sad we'll likely never get this Windblade retool, take a look at the picture below and tell us what you think in the forums nonetheless!

If you're still waiting for your Transformers Collectors' Club Subscription Service 5.0 figures, which we were told would ship mid-January as reported here, are now due to leave their point of origin this month, giving them until March to actually arrive in your hands. More information below.

This is a resend in case you didn't get this last week.

Hello Everyone!

We just found out that the ship did not sail before Chinese New Year with the FSS 5 figures aboard. It was delayed over 3 weeks and is now scheduled to leave Hong Kong on Saturday Feb 11. With everyone (in China) out on holiday for CNY, we were not informed of this until yesterday.

This puts the figures here around the first of March and we will get the first shipment out to you as soon as we can. I will keep you advised when the container arrives here.

I apologize for the continual delay.

And thanks to fellow Seibertronian starfish, we have even more images of the TFCC GI Joe x Transformers Megatron G2 Hologram (from the Ninja Force set) AND of the MP Ratbat cassette redeco, too - as they have apparently arrived a fair while back, but everyone was distracted by other news! With thanks to starfish, check out the shared images below!

It's been a while since we heard about these, but it looks as though the BotCon 2016 revealed Ninja Force Hologram Megatron figure is arriving in some collectors' hands! The images of the GI Joe vs Transformers crossover below are courtesy of Planet Iacon on Facebook, and show off the two modes of the translucent Decepticon leader (from G2!) using the Combiner Wars Warpath mold.

Seibertronian Grimdragon2001 has given us a further update on the shipping of the Subscription Service 5.0 figures. The figures, as we know, have been pushed back, and it now appears they will be shipping at the end of February. The figures are also now being sent in 3 shipments. You can read the forwarded email text below.

Merry Christmas!

Due to manufacturing delays, the container will not leave China until the middle of January. This means that your first shipment should depart here by the end of February. Because of the delays, we have combined the figures into three shipments. After the first shipment we will run the billing for the second installment. We will not schedule the two installment billings until we have the container in hand. I know you are all anxious to receive the final figures from the Transformers Collectors' Club.

Thanks for your patience.

We will still be filling TFSS 5.0 orders, selling licensed Transformers Club/Convention product and offering customer service in 2017, however our time as the official Transformers Collectors' Club ends tonight at midnight EST. Thank you all for you support over the last 12 years. Even though we will still be here, let's close this chapter with your first look at the artwork for Double Pretender Optimus Prime!

Courtesy of TF_JW, we have several prose stories from the Transformers Club. These may very well be the last prose stories we ever get from them and they offer us the end of their BWU storyline.

There are three stories for you fans, including the very last story from the Shattered Glass universe. The links can all be found below with a description for each. Enjoy!

179 pages packed with fun!

http://transformersclub.com/prose/Beast%20Wars%20Uprising%20Finale%20-%20Derailment.pdf

derailment_thumb.jpg

After six years of brutal warfare, Lio Convoy’s rebellion is at its end. The Vehicons are on the march, assimilating everyone and everything in their path. But the Resistance won’t go down without a fight, and there’s no line Lio Convoy won’t cross to save the Maximals and Predacons from horrific annihilation. Virtually every character ever seen in Beast Wars Uprising (including some dead ones) grapple with the Vehicon Apocalypse in Derailment, the titanic climax of the Grand Uprising.

With a cast of hundreds, Furman-esque levels of carnage, and amazing art by Guido Guidi, Josh Burcham, Matt Frank and more, Derailment is a full-on Beast Wars Uprising novel, available only from Fun Publications.

12/28/2016 - The Uprising is over, History has begun...

With the Fourth Cybertronian War over, Cybertron is in an unusual state: peace! But what can peace mean for a species as bellicose as the multitudinous flavors of Cybertronians?

Explore a thousand years of future history in The Inexorable March, the Beast Wars Uprising coda, by Jim Sorenson and David Bishop, with art by Guido Guidi.

12/28/2016 - The Final Shattered Glass Prose Story Told At Last!

It is the year 2011... Transhuman cyborgs, secret Underbase agents, and missing Autobots are leading to one mystery after another. How are they all linked? And can Cyclonus - a Decepticon labeled a traitor by nearly his entire faction - find out the truth before a heinous master plot can be put into motion?

With a cast of familiar faces, new faces, and faces that have long since changed, Coalescence will fill in the missing pieces to the Shattered Glass story line, and bring the universe closer to its closure.
