This is #3 - I picked up the edition I call the airport edition - which fits in boxes better without having the fold the top down. I hope Martins newsagents have this copy in for #4 plus

The smaller size & sticker option would be my choice as well.

#5 out with a good Grimlock build figure on the front.  #6 out 25/3/16 - so #7 should be 22/4/16, ? #8 20/5/16 ? |

 stinkblade is in this issue. Price £3.99 & is the smaller format. Bumblebee shooter which is taped to the comic inside a printed bag with set of stickers on roll page 7 survey. I'll scan this in so all of us can send it in & change the UK comic to how we would like it - remember that it is 98% likely that we have no UK new RID comic strips. So reprint comic only. |

The IDW RID TPB is out and it's tiny. Amazon state it's 14.7 x 22.6 cm, which is a noticeable reduction in comparison the US monthly editions (16.5 x 26 cm). RID has simpler artwork so it's not a significant problem, but there's still some minor reduction in quality. |

Oh that's annoying. The one they put out for Prime that had their original content in was tiny too. Really pathetic looking.

Just another week & we'll know what is happening with the UK comic. Could they go to reprint this tpb?

Post by Pinwig on Apr 16, 2016 9:48:43 GMT
No this tpb is the content they've already printed. The easy option for them is to go into the comics that use screenshots from the show because IDW have done some of those, but that really would be scraping the bottom of the barrel.

There is the bigger format cover (small one being from Tesco) Morrisons have the bigger one & Sainsburys don't have #7 in at all.

Ouch. RID doesn't seem to have made much of an impact in the UK (as has been the case with most of the cartoon lines over the last decade) so I guess they're just sticking filler in it as a way of getting some extra cheap money before the end?

Well, to fair it is what Thunderbirds do, and this company don't seem that likely to commission original material.
There are still comics they could have used, as the bonus comic was from a range of comics done for a different market.
Also let us not forget Thundercats the comic that outlived the comic strip by one issue.

It's a pity they don't commission original material. The free gift is a rather nice silver robot hand that it claims belongs to Bumblebee. A fiction/toy tie-in where he actually loses his hand would have been amazing.

Got a picture Pete?
Jonathan got a very similar sounding piece of tat on one of his comic this week and I know they frequently share tat between publications
