TFA AllSpark Almanac

[i_amtrunks]

I got mine online from Kings, as I no longer have the time to head into the city personally, was $32 or something.

Great book, absolutely perfect from a Transformers perspective, but I am a little miffed at the number of simple spelling errors, Tipton and the other IDW editors have been very lax in their editing in the past 12 or so months.

A far more complete book than the G1 ark addendum's, this is a fans book written for fans by fans.

I was disappointed about the absence of anything from Season 3. I'm assuming that this book was written before Season 3 aired, but still... I would've preferred if they waited for Animated to finish before producing this book. I like the additional G1 references they've thrown in, such as stating that Lockdown's ship is called Death's Head and Ultra Magnus' ship is the Steelhaven.

None that I know of, but Kings comics based in Sydney have $3.50 nationwide shipping, no matter the order. I think the Almanac was about $35 from them when I got it a few months ago. Try their website.

See if the UK site in the topic below still has them, and if they do, they are cheaper than local retail, and free shipping.

As far as I can remember, there was a Phantom Zone in Wollongong, used to be down near the Glass House, and then it moved just up from the Gamesworkshop.
Been quite sometime since I have been there so it may not be there anymore. Don't think there are any other comic stores in the gong though.

One of the writers of this book is Jim Sorenson, a long-time fan, and a major contributor to the TFWiki, which is why there are references to obscure wiki articles such as as Seafood Louis.

I don't think it's there because it's an obscure Wiki article, FFN, it's just a general fan reference like heaps of the rest of the (awesome) book. Transfandom Seafood Louis jokes predate the existence of the Wiki by over half a decade:
