Collector Club Subscription figures Series 2 - details and reveals

[griffin]

Some advance details have been released of the second Subscription series, so pre-orders and figure reveals won't be far away (if they want to get the orders in during September so that they have enough time to have the toys made and shipped to America for February - the first release month).

The club have now put up their Subscription figure reveals page here.

No pricing released yet, but should be on par with last years, which was US$282 or US$47 a figure, plus (expensive) TFCC international shipping.

Same format as the first series, in that each figure will be released each month, and the order will be a mystery.

A different range of figure sizes this time, as it will be 5 Deluxes and 1 Scout (instead of a Voyager). To make up for the size difference of the sixth figure, they are throwing in a bonus 7th figure if you pre-order all six.
(likely to be just another scout though... otherwise, they wouldn't have the Scout in the main set of six to make it seem less value for money - unless that sixth figure is something so sensational, every fan will want to pay $47 for it)
Because really, who is going to want to pay US$47 (AU$54 plus postage) for a Scout if this set is the same price as the first set.

Of the 7 figures, there will be three new head moulds.


Both modes of one already-known figure have now been released - Treadshot (redeco Warpath).


Details so far known now (to be updated here when each is revealed in the next month or so)...
1 - Treadshot (redeco Warpath - no new head) Fully revealed
2 - Fisitron/Ironfist (redeco FOC Roadbuster - no new head) Fully revealed
3 - Chromedome (redeco TFPrime Wheeljack - new head) Named at BotCon
4 - Barricade (redeco TFPrime Prowl - no new head) Fully revealed
5 - Rewind (redeco JP United Rumble/Frenzy - new head) Fully revealed
6 - Thrustinator (redeco JP BWNeo Dirgegun - new head) Fully revealed
Bonus - won't be known until July 2014, but is most likely Eject to pair with Rewind... but this topic will have been dormant for about 10 months by then.

I will be signing up for the subscription service again, I received Slipstream today and I am very happy with both her and Scourge. I know TFCC has had its problems, but overall I am happy with the figures that they have offered.

[Autocon]

What does FOC roadbuster look like?

[Shirokaze]

I wish I'd signed up for the last set, but from what we've seen so far I'm not impressed with 2.0

[snaketales]

The sign-up price doesn't include shipping? Yeeuch... I think I'll stick to making my own.

[griffin]

What does FOC roadbuster look like?

Swindle mould with a new head.
People are saying that the head looks like Fisitron/Ironfist... so will likely be a straight recolour with no new head in the Subscription set.

Don't quote me on this, buuuutt, I am hearing that IDW Rewind (or eject, one of them) will be the surprise 7th figure

[Gouki]

All I want is pictures of Chromedome.

[Krayt]

Don't quote me on this, buuuutt, I am hearing that IDW Rewind (or eject, one of them) will be the surprise 7th figure

That could make sense, with both scouts being eject AND rewind, just a recolour and BAMN! 2 figures..

[Quickstrike]

Yep, I still want Treadshot. I'll probably want Ironfist and Chromedome.
