And to further promote the toys, a 22 page comic has been done up, to be released digitally on the Club website tomorrow (not sure if it will be public, or viewable by logged in members - likely to be public if they are wanting to use it to sell more of the Subscription figures).
The comic follows on from last year's BotCon Machine Wars comic, but may not require reading that comic first.
The comic is being listed as Issue #9 of the Timelines series, which only now made me realise that this year's BotCon comic skipped ahead to issue #10 (last year's was #8 - and I didn't see anyone else pick up on the missing issue number).
Probably done to allow them to match up the issue number with their convention number for the anniversary this year (because they did two Issue #1 for 2005 & 2006, but 2005 was Volume 1, while the other 9 BotCon issues are Volume 2)... allowing them to slot in this non-BotCon issue into Volume 2.
So that would be this one?
No as easy to get. :rolleyes:
Just keep checking daily, ToberQuote:

Cool, thanks. Will keep an eye on it. :)Quote:

(it's 60Mb, and took me ages to view/download it, so be patient, or maybe try it a little later when the Americans are done accessing it)
It also includes profiles of four of the six Subscription figures (missing G2 Starscream and Nacelle).
There's no mention of it being taken down after a period of time, but best to view/save it as soon as you can, in case it disappears suddenly.
Just got a pre-order in. :DQuote:

I do get the feeling that they've released this comic early to increase interest. I'm still on the fence but I haven't read the comic yet. :o
