Welcome to the Powet Top 5, where we explore the top (and bottom) 5 items we think are relevant to any of a variety of topics that span the imagination. Sit back, read, and respond.

We’ve listed the Top 5 Botcon Sets here at Powet, but Fun Publications does more than just Botcon. They also run the Official Transformers Collectors’ Club, and with that comes it’s own rich assortment of exclusive toys. With the impending commencement of the new Club Subscription Service, we thought we’d look back at the last few years of Transformers Club Exclusives.

Here are 5 of the best exclusives Fun Publications has released through the Transformers Club. This is sure to be a contentious list, so be sure to let me know what you think of it!

Transformers Fall of Cybertron is only a month away from being released. Hasbro is putting out five Transformers action figures that combine to form a larger figure called Bruticus, featured in the game. Many fans are excited about an exclusive release of the 5 figures in one set repainted in the Generation 2 scheme of the same combiner group. That set has gone up for pre-order on Amazon.com. If any of you are going to be purchasing the set, we ask you use one of the links below to help us out while you help yourself! If you pre-order the game on Amazon as well, you receive a free code to allow Bruticus to use the G2 color scheme in-game.

The Transformers Collectors Club have unveiled the first of the two club exclusive figures for 2011. That figure is Generation 2 Ramjet. He, along with the other, as yet unrevealed, club exclusive figure, will be available for purchase only to club members. We recently posted about the reveal of the 2011 Club Membership figure, Sideburn. Anyone who renews their membership before March 16, 2011 will receive one free Sideburn figure. After that you will have the opportunity to buy G2 Ramjet and the other exclusive figure.

 

As I recall, the other unnamed figure was mentioned at Botcon to be a redeco of Animated Blur as Transtech Cheetor. This is merely what they were planning and has not been officially announced yet.
