It was first revealed in the Transformers Collector Club Roundtable panel at Botcon 2012, that the Club would be putting together a Figure Subscription Service (FSS). Largely seen as a shot across the bow of MattyCollector.com, the subscription will feature six figures shipped out over the course of a year.

To order you can visit this link.

Here are some of the details:
You have to be a member to subscribe.
This is built to order. No limits on quantities. However much is ordered will be made.
The ordering period will end on September 10th at midnight.
You can pay in full ($282) or in three installments ($94) plus shipping and service fee.
Items will be shipped in random order. Everyone will receive the same figure each month.
If credit card or address changes, you change it on your club account only. Change will effect everything else.
Some extra figures may go up in the club store after shipment at a higher price point. Availability not guaranteed.

  

The figures included in the subscription are:
Transformers Animated Jackpot
Transformers Prime Slipstream
Transformers Generations Circuit
Transformers Generations G1 Breakdown

@Botcon twitter account gave us a peek at the new convention comic by showing us a panel featuring the Trypticon Prison. The name of the story is called The Stunti-Con Job and promises to be a treat for Transformers Animated fans with designs by Derrick Wyatt (Art Director for the show), story by Marty Isenberg (Story Director for the series, and art by Marcelo Matere (IDW artist who pencilled the Animated comic).

@mmatere @DerrickJWyatt Here tis! Trypticon Prison… WAIT till you see the guards! 😀 http://twitpic.com/4jo26b

If they are continuing their plans for the show in the comic and if the Allspark Almanac was any indication, the guards would have been minicons. It is more likely, though, that we will see some other repaints as the guards though in order to include characters that would be included in the convention souvenir sets. We’ll know soon!
