    Feels like I just got the last two volumes, and the next two are already nearly here. Tomorrow apparently!

    Few more days till they arrive up my way. I decided not to read the last 2 issues, wanted to wait till I had at least 4 in hand so I can sink my teeth into them (even though they're not in order). Just feels like 2 issues go too quick, haha.

    My next two issues arrived today, slightly dented too. But the content, well it's almost enough to overlook it. Volume 19 contains UK 240-260, gloriously coloured for the very first time (previously black and white, when the uk comic was on the decline in sales). It brings back very warm memories leafing through it.
    On the lookout for MISB Headmaster Highbrow, Takara or Hasbro. I'm sure I could make you a sweet deal!

    I loved Volume 19 as I hadn't read 240-260, first time I have ever seen Quickswitch in a comic

    Liking all of these so far, only thing is I'd like to see them have a range of characters on the front covers. We've had two with Optimus and two with Megatron and I'm guessing we will get more before the volumes come to an end. With hundreds of characters to choose from, it would have been nice to see a different Transformer on the cover of each one.

    That's my main complaint.

    Especially since this is mainly a subscription service, I don't think I've seen any of the later versions sitting in newsagents anywhere.

    We've had Prime 3 times I think Starscream a couple Megs a couple...

    I'd love for something random like Flywheels to be on the cover of the issue with City of Fear in it.

    How far ahead are the subscribers in the UK?

    Issue 35 by the looks of this. Speaking of characters who aren't Optimus and Megatron, there is Bludgeon, Bombshell and Brainstorm pictured there. Also characters that don't start with B but I'm a sucker for alliteration.

    Are they including the Dreamwave comics in this thing?
    And if so have they said which volumes they will be included in?

    ok I get it now, looking on that website link it lists ISSUES in order of printing and release, but those are not the same thing as VOLUMES which dictate the stories contained and chronology.

    So...

    Vol 25 Generation One Vol 1 #1-6 ---> ??
    Vol 26 Generation One Vol 2 #1-6 ---> issue 15
    Vol 27 Generation One Vol 3 #1-5 --->??
    Vol 28 Generation One Vol 3 #6-10 --->??
    Vol 29 The War Within #1-6 ---> issue 5
    Vol 30 War Within 2 Dark Ages #1-6 ---> issue 36
    Vol 31 Transformers/G.I. Joe #1-6 ---> issue 11
    Vol 32 Micromasters #1-4 and Transformers/GI Joe 2 #1 (maybe...)??
