Transformers Collector's Club News on Seibertron.com
Pete@BotCon has posted this gem over in the Club Forums. To help get the fandom pumped for the "G2 Redux" theme of this year's set, FunPub gives us a BotCon 2010 commercial featuring the a redux of the cgi from the Generation 2 toy commercials and tv series opener.
Keep your optics glued to Seibertron.com for up to the minute coverage of BotCon 2010.
If you missed this boat, you can only blame yourself. After 5 long years of being available on the Transformers Club Store, the Botcon 2005 Decent Into Evil Box Sets are finally sold out. The TFCC Store still has bagged sets available for sale, but require that you have purchased a 2005 Box Set from them in order to buy them. To order a bagged set or have a friend who owns the 2005 Box Set order one for you, click here. If you are still on the fence about getting these figures, most of them have their own gallery right here on Seibertron.com!
Were you looking forward to your free Transformers Collectors' Club membership figure arriving at your door step soon? Well it looks like you're going to get what you've asked for, as we've got an announcement that Elite Guard Dion will be arriving in May. Whether you were waiting for your free figure, or have bought additional Dion's from the TFCC Club Store, Brian Savage has the following to say...
Here is an update on this years FREE membership exclusive Dion: In March we announced that this item was scheduled to ship at the end of April. Though we are often leery of giving even "scheduled" specific dates, we felt confident that they would be on time.
However, as can be the case very often in this industry, the shipping schedule was changed due to constraints at the factory. At one point they had pushed us six weeks, but we were able to work with the factory and are pleased that they agreed to ship them from China by the end of next week.
The simple translation is this: Dion SHOULD start being mailed out next month, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, they SHOULD all be en route to the entire membership by the end of May.
We are very excited to get this great figure to all of you just as quickly as possible and thank you again for your patience.
Thanks,
Brian
So there we have it, look forward to your orange and blue Autobot to be in your collection by the end of May.

Seibertron.com member Samsonator has just posted some new information that may give hope to those of us who wanted to order the Transformers Club's exclusive figure Punch/Counterpunch but missed out due to an extremely fast preorder sell out.
Brian Savage, head of the Club, has sent members an email regarding the amazing response for the figure and gives us a little hope at another chance to preorder it. Here's what he had to share:
Brian wrote:Response to the current club exclusives pre-orders has been incredible! Over the weekend Punch/Counter Punch has sold out!
However, we are checking to see if we can get the quantities increased. We will keep you posted if we are able to do this. If we are able to increase the production numbers, we ask that you give members who have not ordered a set, the chance to purchase before you order seconds...etc.
In addition, Cyclonus has sold through approximately 60% of the run. If you are interested in that figure, don't delay as we expect it to sell out soon as well.
BotCon update: We are still working on final details and the online registration system. We hope to have the brochure up very soon.
Thanks for your support!
Brian
