FYI: MTMTE Profile Books

Post by Sixshot »

Dreamwave, b4 they went belly-up, released the More Than Meets the Eye comics that profiled all the Transformers(which I think where Megs is probably gettin' his information for the profiles in Iacon Database; quote me if I'm wrong tho Megs, :P )! Well Dreamwave released this 9 or 10 issue comic into 2 volumes and when IDW acquired them, they re-released them and they quickly sold out!

Well, IDW has brought them out yet again and they should hit your local bookstore(at least in the US :?: ) this month, starting this week, and the 2nd volume will be released in December! Just thought I'd let everyone now, if you r interested and didn't wanna pay the astronomical prices the old ones are goin' for :!:

No prob, Rumble, :wink: ! Based on the associates at both Barnes and Noble and Borders, it looks like Barnes and Noble are gettin'em this week!

The Borders associates said that everytime they tried to reserve it, it kept kickin' back, with a final release date of the 30th, :? :shock: :roll:

I have checked Amazon UK and they have it slated for the 29th September (Vol.1) and 29th December (Vol.2). Seems about right judging by what your being told at your stores.

I thought so, :wink: !

Oh, don't look forward to getting your hands on a copy this week, unfortunately! Seems there's been a delay in Barnes and Noble stock from IDW, :cry: :x !

I'll check Borders, later, but I wouldn't get your hopes up for either this week, :cry: :cry:

I placed an order with Amazon UK and they haven't cancelled that yet so don't give up Sixshot! They say my Vol 1 should be with me by the 30th (ish).... I will believe that when I see it tho!

No, unfortunately, :cry: ! Barnes and Noble said that the publisher has not shipped the item, yet, however, they did say that the comic shops might get it earlier, but, so far, no luck there, either, :(

Damn that's annoying, Sixshot. My order with Amazon UK is still saying Delivery estimate: 30 Sep 2008 - 1 Oct 2008. Have you looked at Amazon at all?

Damn Amazon! They have e-mailed me saying that they are still awaiting stock of Vol.1 so I guess I won't be getting it anytime soon. :( I suppose I will just have to be patient.
