    Default TFCC Trade paperback

    Hello everyone,
    I have just received an email from the club saying that they are producing a trade paperback.

    I hope that all of you are having a great holiday season so far!

    We are creating some collected volume trade paperbacks featuring past year's stories and wanted to let you know about the very limited availability (only 500 copies) of our first issue:

    Transformers Collectors' Club Magazine Collected Edition Volume 1.

    This LIMITED EDITION collected volume will contain Issues 1-6 of the TCC Newsletter from 2005. The six bound newsletters will also feature a great new cover by artist Robby Musso. The perfect way to catch up on the fiction from the TCC and to have all the info from 2005 at your fingertips.

    100 pgs, FC, $19.99

    Available for pre-order until 12-17-12 TransformersClub.com/shop
    If anyone from Sydney/NSW is interested I can probably order a few, I'm not sure if I'm going to grab one for myself yet or not. I am trying to figure out if it's the comic story collected or the entire magazine collected. I guess the bios would be cool to have.

    it does feel like a bit of a cash crab.


    EDIT:
    Currently, I have decided to pass on this,

    I'm still happy to order on others behalf,

    I will order Monday night the 3rd of December please show interest by Sunday night.
    I have not looked into shipping yet, it will be on top of the $20 charge for the book. I will look at it over the weekend and see what the charge is going to be, it may be prohibitive.

    List below,

    Also pre-orderable

    From the page count and description it's the entire club magazine #1-6, not just the comic.

    They actually released a collection of the comic from the first 12 issues of the club magazine several years (called "Balancing Act").

    When I saw I was hoping it would be a collection of the next set of strips. That I would buy, collection of the entire magazine? No.

    I was excited about that too, until I saw it was all the magazines. Who wants something years old with no relevant information in it anyway?

    Knowing the club they'll be direct reprints so you'll have to flip through 20 pages to read a couple of comic pages, then repeat.

    yea, I've re-read it now, and agree, it's the entire magazine, would need to be to get to 100 pages in a year.

    I wonder if they are printing these or re-binding old stock they can't sell

    If it was $10 and the comics and bios only, maybe with a collection of interviews in the back, I'd be more interested.
