RID Part 2 boxset release date

Chris McFeely posted this on our message board a little while ago.

From the horse"s mouth, it comes - the second and final boxset for RiD, containing episode 21-39, will be released on April 11th. Character profiles are currently the only confirmed extras.

We were one of several fans who bought the original DVD release, only for Maximum Entertainment to annouce a boxset 2 days later - and offered no reason or exchange program for those in the same situation. This frustrated many fans, including us, who supported their release.

The first DVD boxset has been out for some time now, and includes episodes never shown in the states. Chris wrote the profiles for that release, so you if you bought the first set you"ll know what to expect on the second set. His knowledge of Transformers surely knows no bounds.

Memorabilia Celebrates 10 Years

Next weekend sees the 10th Anniversary of the Memorabilia Collectors show. Although not a Transformers specific show there are always Transformers for sale on some of the stalls as well as general Sci-Fi, Comic and sporting memorabilia. You can view the lineup of guests here. Due to demand, the event will not be in its usual hall and has moved to Halls 3 & 3A. One of the event organisers, Dominic Fleming, explains Demand from dealers to attend the event has far outstripped last year's numbers. Hall 3 & 3A provides us with enough space for everyone and has better catering facilities and a good queuing system. Overall the Hall change will be better for our dealers and visitors.

Don Murphy meets Simon Furman

Don Murphy has posted the following on his message board

Very happy to report that the talented Tom DeSanto and I had the luck to meet this morning with Simon Furman, Transformers Historian Extraordinaire. We brought him up to speed on the movie as it stands now. He brought us a glimpse into the dark and deep recesses of his noggin. It was a very exciting first meeting, under a sunny sky in the courtyard of the old Charlie Chaplin lot (now owned by the the Jim Henson heirs) and was FOR SURE the beginning of many good things to come.

So now you know......and soon the world will know.
