Bumblebee takes place during Police Action, so I'd imagine it'd be with that and Chaos Theory.

Furman @ TFN:
Last twenty books will run IDW up to Unicron including the Revolutionaries crossovers. Also definitely including G2 and the Halloween special plus other stuff.

I got it yesterday, but haven't had a chance to flick through it yet. Gotcha. When you do, can you confirm the contents/special extras, if any? Also, did Devastation have any extras?

Was Dissolution released today or was it delayed like/because of the last issue? Chris Ginger, FB Page poster, says both 70 & 71 arrived at his newsagent today, so no, but still no idea what the delay was either.

Hachette - and others like them, including Titan and Eaglemoss - aren't the most reliable at actually getting their products out on time, especially to smaller shops. My LCS never received Requiem, and it's not uncommon for them to not receive their orders for months.
Anyway, Dissolution was LL 1-8, special feature was some sketches from Jack Lawrence.

Remain In Light never showed up in my local newsagent and I have not seen any on sale online so it is the first it is the I has missed. Picked up Sins of The Wreckers today which had the Holiday Special included alongside the usual cover gallery.

Has Furman/Hachette revealed anything new about names or volume numbers of the remaining (of 80) volumes? No but from other sources its looking like this 73: City On Fire (56) - Robots in Disguise #8–14 74: Autocracy (34) - Autocracy miniseries 75: Punishment (70) - Punishment miniseries 76: Worlds Collide pt 1 (27) 77: Empire of Stone (68) - Drift - Empire of Stone miniseries 78: Police Action (51) - Transformers #22-23,25, 27, 29 79: (?? ??) (66) - 80: World Shut Your Mouth (61)- More Than Meets The Eye 28 - 32

Well 73-77 are on the Forbidden Planet listing, so those are correct (and logical contents). Furman apparently posted the title and contents to 80, so that's correct.
This is the first place I saw Police Action posted, but it seems logical. I looked up what's remaining at it seems to be MTMTE #42-49. The only arc in that sequence is a 2-parter called "Speak Memory", so maybe that will be the title. Whether it or Police Action comes first is the main unknown.
I assume Worlds Collide is more Dreamwave Armada stuff, but what could it be? AFAIK, there were no other G1 references in that series. Or maybe they will reprint issues #1-7 of the Dreamwave More than Meets the Eye profiles, since issue #8 was included with Part 2. 'Tis a mystery for now.

So they're finishing the 80 original volumes before starting the new? That's good, I've heard of unscrupulous Partworks that start working the extension volumes in before the end so people planning to jump ship one what they've originally signed up for is done find it harder.

That's good, I've heard of unscrupulous Partworks that start working the extension volumes in before the end so people planning to jump ship one what they've originally signed up for is done find it harder. I asked this specific question on the FB page and they assured me the 80 would be done first. I have volume 51 pencilled in as Chaos rather than Police Action but could be either? And it seems a given that Wolds Collide 1 will be More of the Armada title, probably beginning with Simon Furman's first issue (6)?

I think it's good customer service to finish the 80 issues before extending. That way folk who signed up for the initial run get what they budgeted for rather than feel 'forced' to lay out for extras and can decide if they want/can afford the additional volumes.

No but from other sources its looking like this 73: City On Fire (56) - Robots in Disguise #8–14 And Primus: All Good Things. And Spotlight Thundercracker Windblade 5-7 will go in one of these, probably Empire of Stone. Who knows, but probably not the profile books. Those were massive, 68 pages including inside and outside covers. You could maybe fit three in a volume. More likely is the rest of Furman's Armada run, 6-13 is 8 issues, which would fill out a book. If that's the case, it's a shame they didn't plan forward enough to do 1-5 in some of the other DW era volumes, but forward planning obviously wasn't high on the list of priorities of the collection... And Spotlight Bumblebee. As mentioned, MTMtE 43-49 is the only thing left to go in here. My title guess was 'The Not Knowing', but it could be any title from those issues. Except for the Friends reference. Probably. Also, this will probably be 78 and 'Police Action' will be 79, so there isn't two MTMtE volumes in a row. Nothing really to add here, except I really want this to be titled 'Slaughterhouse'.

There has been a couple of times where we have had MTMTE in subsequent volumes 29-31 and 53-54. I can't recall where I saw Police Action so I could be mistaken on Volume 51 and 78 and 79 are still unannounced.

Previews has the following listed and its Chaos Theory not Police Action Transformers 78; Chaos Theory Transformers 79; Speak,Memory Odd, they have the covers up for these 2, but the previous 2 still have placeholders. I assume Empire of Stone will have another Drift pic, but it would be great to go out of the box and have an image of Hellbat or Gigatron. And with Worlds Collide, maybe they're racking their brains trying to think of a G1 character that fits with the material. If the content is indeed issues 6-13 of Armada, they could use Armada Starscream and say it's G1 Starscream in his Dark Cybertron IDW body. A stretch of course, but what else would make sense?

I'd imagine they could just whack a picture of Unicron on the Armada book or something. I can't remember if he actually shows up at the end of the stuff that'll be in the book or not though.
More generally, what do we think the likelihood of the IDW Beast Wars minis getting collected in the extension is? It's technically in G1 continuity.
