I'm hoping this is among the best of the Spotlights (Shockwave, Nightbeat, Soundwave, Kup...), well, they've all been decent, but I didn't like Sixshot much... As long as it is better than Sixshot!!!
Transformers Magazine...I may get this just to get it, but I'm not sure if I will continue getting it or not.

agreed, not a big fan of the art on that one, or the story for that matter.

I just got off the phone with Diamond. Unfortunately, GALVATRON is a July book, and for whatever reason, according to them, trying to get a book out in the month before it's solicited threw them off and they held the book over to next week. Sorry--next week for sure, long with the first issue of the New Avengers/Transformers crossover. Feel free to spread this around to any other site that is discussing the book, too.
This was in response to people another post:
In all fairness to Diamond, while we wanted it to come out today, as they explained it to me, their system isn't set up to handle books that move forward in the schedule like this. So it was more of an automated thing, not any sort of hissy fit or petulant move on their part. I'm sure they'd be happy to have another TF book out before the movie, too, it's just that the automated system keeps July books until July and isn't set up to ship them early. Now we know.
And finally yet another response:
Here is our process
1. Our printer sends us shipping lists telling us when books will arrive in the states, when they get to Diamond, when they will be in stores.
2. We confirm these dates with Diamond.
3. We then list these releases on our site.
Now, if someone in a different time zone gets to a shop before we on the West Coast can physically confirm the books are in local shops, and they notice the missing book and contact me, and I look into it and find out that this one didnt arrive like it should've
Hope that helps. I'll admit that it would have been nice to have this confirmation come out before yesterday (without the "is-it-or-isn't-it" situation), but it appears that He too was expecting it to come out yesterday.
