Not right yet able to answer these Qs but thank you for doing the page at all. The Wikipedia page I began some years ago has been deleted by mods over the Christmas period. Am yet to attempt to get it back! Do you know about the TFWiki version? tfwiki.net/wiki/Transformers:_The_Definitive_G1_CollectionYup! I'm gonna refer to this from now on, Wikipedia be damned. I reckon whoever deleted all the references I had originally peppered the table with as I went along is to blame really as one of the reasons they said it was no good was the lack of references. Anyhoo, Forbidden Planet have the next two new books up with art after missing it last month:

it was me pin, I sunk 60 quid on it, ironically not on transformers books ( I go collect it every fortnight from smiths) - one of my students puts it aside for me I spent Ā£40 on marvel graphic novels and Ā£20 on the Warhammer books for my favourite stories!

I didn't see the issue in the shop today, but have to admit to being intrigued by the promise of "rare archive material from the dawn of MTMTE" and the new James Roberts interview that's mentioned in the Hachette solicitation. What secrets will it reveal, I wonder.

Thanks. Sounds similar to "Liars, A to D": An all-new interview with James Roberts, rare archive material from the dawn of MTMTE, Alex Milne's sketchbook.

By the way, the description says there's a "behind-the-scenes look at a sea change moment for the US comic". What is this exactly?

Of course, if they could use the cover of the trade for Drift, that confirms there was nothing that stopped them coming up with a template that used covers (originals or trades) for the entire blooming series.

My delivery of Vol 2/3 came today (yes, that's how far behind the rest of you I am) and Vol 2 had a replacement copy of Vol 75 with it. Given my first Vol 75 came so late anyway, I'm wondering if I was sent a fixed one in the first place. What actually was the problem I'm looking for? The note says a couple of pages were duplicated?

They held me back a few weeks once errors started creeping in. Pretty sure I get corrected ones first time now. Don't check them all but the ones I have don't contain the errors.

Hachette have used the edited version of Spotlight Trailcutter that was a toy pack-in, so his name is just Trailcutter throughout (which is confusing in how it's placed in the book as that means he switches back and forth for no reason) and toned down drinking.
