  1. Nuclear BOOM!!! (very, very big 'splosion) Just purchased a Spotlight Sixshot RI-B 1:50 Variant! It needs a press but at this point I don't care if it's a 6.0. One more to go for a complete Retail Incentive IDW G1 RUN!!!
  2. Next week is the new release day according to our Diamond rep.
  3. Transformers #55 was leaked last week on Comixology Canada, and there were some spoilers on some Transformers based boards, beware, they are blatant spoilers! It has since been taken down, and will be available on Wednesday. I spoiled myself, but still looking forward to the reading experience. I also have to say that Titans Return was a great bridge, and even though Livio Ramondelli was on art, I could make out the pages this time! Livio's artwork is good most of the time, but if it weren't for reading a digital copy on my tablet, I probably couldn't tell what happens in some panels. I can see why people have gripes. Story-wise, the set up for Titans Return seems to come out of the last 2 issues of Former RID (53-54 mostly, but the whole All Hail Optimus story is great, recommend it). The new threat facing the IDWverse's Transformers? The one shot touches on the Lost Light crew, and tries to tie everything in. REVOLUTION!!! They have the main mini series, and then the specific #1 one-shots with the current title names (MTMTE, and Formerly RID).These one-shots are the "DC Rebirth of IDW Transformers" I believe due to solicits for September, I see #57 solicited for both titles, but not sure whether or not October we get the relaunches. All we know is the Cybertronian race is responsible for creating M.A.S.K.from all the events that create whoever else is from Earth, tie into G.I. Joe, and somehow ROM will be linked in there too. Willing to bet the Galactic Council will show up in other books too. I saw a Revolution #0 from SDCC, that is the story in the back of Titans Return #1 I believe showing the interconnections.
  4. Let me pick up that mic and slap you around a little bit. It was an OBVIOUS PUMP AND DUMP. You got caught. GET OUT and DON'T COME BACK. Buying from you was supposed to show that I had no serious ill will, I collect Transformers books, so yeah, when I see a Transformers book I want, I buy it. It's probably best as you use stock pictures and the book probably wasn't even the one shown, or in condition as you described, and in that case I would have negative feedbacked a bad seller who deserved it. So I looked into things, and can see you have been on probation here for being a scum bag, so I was right that it translates to real life. I never forget a scum bags face, especially one with such a "Stellar" reputation: You have a PR nightmare on your hands. Don't come back.
  5. I must have Jackpotted when i pulled a Psylocke #1 2nd print for $5.00 last year. I sold both #1's and kind of regret it. Looked at two shops today for that one. Neither had it. Both had every other issue. Some boardies beat me to it. Plenty of copies on eBay, but the Bombshells #3 1:25 isn't the book I am even talking about, and that isn't Harley and Ivy kissing on that cover, that is Batwoman and Supergirl?!!?! (I think) it's this one....
  6. I think it's important for the community to know I tried to place an order for a Transformers book Dimebag_D had for sale on his eBay store, linked in his profile, and because I scolded him for his off topic post and possible pump and dump in a Transformers related thread I have in the modern section, he just canceled the order, refunded my $12.21 cents and blocked from being able to purchase from him. Which, may be a blessing. I am a fair person. It's not like I was going to leave bad feedback for his post, that is a childish move. I just wanted to buy a Transformers book because I collect them. For someone on these boards for 10 years, and an eBay seller, that is a really scum-bag thing to do. Way to be a player!
  7. The DYING OF THE LIGHT PART 5! (Waiting on my RI cover still) but WOW was this a great read. Remain in Light (MTMTE #17-21) and Dying of the light (#50-55(6)? seem to be the 2 stand out arcs of this series (Now in its twilight thanks to Revolution.) So many reveals in this one, we find out who Tarn is, and we also get to see a couple of reveals, and a classic TF characters death. And of course, in typical James Roberts writing fashion, more questions than answers!!!!! RECOMMEND this one! Even if you don't read any other Transformers books, ever, this arc is awesome. Regular cover A says it all. I'm sorry if you felt offended, This ^ is why. Coming in here to "share" the fact you have multiple copies of an error book that nobody wants, seems like you are trying to pump and dump in my thread. The movie universe suff is the worst IDW and Transformers ever had their logos on, I hope you can at least get your grading fees back on that scrap paper you got graded. I don't know if they sell for big $ graded, nor do I care at this point. I may not have cared so much about the RegenOne stuff becasue the people posting it actually have tried to contribute to this thread. So please either stay on topic, or create your own thread about the movie books, or find an error book thread as those are the only appropriate places to post your book in. It doesn't sound like you are a Transformers fan at all, but chase error books. Well, this is where we appreciate the well written stories of IDW, not the . Yes.....like stuff related to the topic. Thanks for playing! SINS OF THE WRECKERS 1-5 RI covers!
  8. The error is incorrect text on page 5? I really avoid all the TF movie books like this. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice book and I know there is a small following of the movie stuff, but that isn't part of the IDW G1 continuty. The IDW G1 continuity EXCLUDES all the following Transformers lines: Marvel Dreamwave Marvel UK Regenration One and Movie Universe All of these are seen to be somewhat outdated storywise, Also, any of the previous crossovers of G.I. Joe and Transformers are excluded from the huge continuity IDW has worked very hard to build with the approval of fans and Hasbro alike. This is why I like IDW G1 the most. Complexly woven plots, long story lines that all tie together. Even with changes in writers, the newer people can always pull from continuity.
  9. Yeah, Bombshells #3 was popular because of that Variant cover. But that is no kiss between Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy.....otherwise that book would be Volcano Lava Hot.
  10. Harley #30 is not any more hyped than any of the last variants, they start off hot then settle down between $20-30. It is not a low print run on the book either, with it in the top 5 of DC print runs every month, and still up there even against the Rebirth stuff, but will wait to confirm sales with Comichron. List em if you got 'em! Strike while the Iron is HOT HOT HOT. Umm, they look a bit young on that cover. On the Bomshells? Really?!?!?!?! Do you even "Barely Legal" bro? Seriously, Bombshells #14, either nobody noticed, or nobody cared because it wasn't mainstream Harley and Ivy.
  11. If that issue gets play because of the Harley & Ivy dynamic, how is the Bombshells book where they actually KISS not doing anything?
  12. Well...... Another really hard to find MTMTE #12 RI just popped up on eBay It's been a while since I have seen one for sale, but this one looks like a 8.5/9.0 copy. There are a few beat up copies of RID #12 RI out there right now too with the Ziggy Stardust swipe. I sold one for $50 a few moths back that was a 9.4/9.6 copy.
  13. Flash was sold out, none for the shelf. Will pick one up tomorrow elsewhere. Nightwing is OK. New character appears, they fight. Titans was alright too. Nothing going to happen in either of these books in 1 issue, especially with fewer pages. Red Hood Rebirth. No outlaws in the book as titled, but a good Red Hood tale. This is the clear winner of the weeks DC releases IMO and Action Comics in close 2nd. Tyler Kirkham doing art in Action was awesome. Wonder Woman, well.....slow(er due to the alternating story) just like Titans and Nightwing, but I nabbed 2 copies of the Cho cover. Rucka, FREE CHO's art!!!!! Hal Jordan and the GL Corps #1 was a on par with the other GL book, a standard GL read. Lots of old stuff, that feels new, but isn't. And I am spending way too much again with now reading DC books so I'll have to cut the weaker titles here soon.
  14. I got mine but they have yet to send Betty and Veronica which is what I thought was holding up my order.
  15. Shhhh. (Little Autobot, don't blow my cover in here, I do turn into a gun.)
  16. I read it, and can see how this current, entitled, narcissistic generation would eat that story up.
  17. I hope the paint job means Rodimus goes Shattered Glass on us and becomes ruthless. This is also a MAJOR SPOILER for those reading......you've been warned........ Matrix is Half shattered, no wonder. Some people are OK with renaming the titles because yes, Formerly RID has been all about Prime since Dark Cybertron basically, with the little Prowl plot while Prime went and handled business in Combiner Wars so that is an Easy transition to a new series and kinda needed with some of the hasbro forced stuff lately. MTMTE should have been left alone, and sadly Alex Milne will not be doing the art on Issue #1 of Lost Light.
  18. Well IDW has spooned the pooch. CANCELING Transformers:More than meets the Eye, and replacing it with this ongoing.... Also, Optimus Prime will be getting an Ongoing Series?!?!?!? (Hasbro is now reaching really hard) John Barber, former editor of all Hasbro titles for IDW has stepped down, and is now going to be writing this series. This whole "Shared universe" with M.A.S.K. and G.I. Joe is just the hand of Hasbro once again forcing stuff into stories that have no place really. As unhappy as I am I will give these a shot, but if they don't pull it together and make it not seem like a toy advertisement I may finally be out of the Transformers collecting game and put up my whole run for sale. (that's how much I cannot stand the Hand of Hasbro messing with what IDW has worked very hard to establish). I am sure there are other books that are going to get the Axe, like I think Formerly Robots In Disguise (Current Self Title) may be getting the axe in Favor of the Optimus Ongoing. We shall see what else comes through the news.
  19. It was NOT a 1:1 cover, it was a Order 90% of a previous Ant-Man issue, and if your local store is not selling Ant-Man, they would have had to bump their orders to even unlock the ordering ability.
  20. Apologies, but you poor hotlinking is the cause. I could not see any Campbell related items in your post and took it as you posting a link to something you wanted to see Campbell do, instead of something already done. Let me fix that. There you go. I win the internets today!
  21. How about we stick to what he has done for the sake of not derailing this thread? thanks rckstr1253
  22. Welcome to anything newer than 1975 that is heating up on eBay.
