The following message is from Glen Hallit
It is with heavy heart that I write to you this first day of September. A wash of emotions are overshadowing the near and far future for us personally and moving forward as a company. Due to constant delays on our part concerning the Collector Plates, Skywarp action figure, and delays in shipping Sentinel Maximus and the Club Magazine, Hasbro has decided it was in their best interest and in their right to pull both licenses from 3H Productions,
Thanks to Mini for sending us the quote. Its sad news for Glen who
is a true Transformers fan who has been the sole target for much of the "mudslinging". Lets hope the new owners are allowed a better deal from certain areas of the community

If you try to find the OTFCC website now ... you can"t. It just redirects to Hasbro"s Transformers site. US sites are speculating that this could be a "sign of things to come", and does tie in with some rumours we"ve be hearing. Stay tune for any updates on this situtation, and what, if anything, it means.

The ToyListings page has had its result layout altered slightly to try to make it much eaiser to know what your looking at.
The results are now grouped by toyline then still by allegiance, first released date and name.
We"re tried to put the toylines into orders that match, but hopefully this will help to see which toy you are about to click on

Well yesterday marked the 5th and final Transforce, a UK Transformers convention which has run in 1999,2000,2001,2002 and 2004. We shall be uploading our image gallery and writing a review later today, but if you can"t wait then just pop over the
Message Board thread here and tell us what you think.
The event had a suprise guest, who wished to remain annonymous ... Anne Bryant who wrote the original Transformers theme tune, as well as many others from Sunbow"s collection. It was her first Transformers convention, and she didn"t want anyone to make a fuss.
Also here are the results of the Transforce Awards.
Toy of the year - Unicron
Fanfic of the year - Heroes by Steel
UK Transfan of the year - Chris McFeely, a very deserved winner in our opinion.
Website of the year (UK host) - TheTransformers.net
Forum of the year (UK host) - TheTransformers.net
Dealer of the year - Ellis Models
Best foreign source of Transformers toys - I didn"t actually here who won, but I beleive it was Hobby Links Japan
Toy collector of the year - Steven and David Mapes ... oh that"s us.

With Transforce under 13 hours away, we thought it would be the ideal time to remind everyone to make a note of your Registration and PIN Numbers that were emailed out to you with your Pre-Registration confirmation. If you have forgotten the details, do not worry you will still be able to get in. You will be asked some security questions before being allowed to enter, but to try to speed things up, lets all try and remember those numbers.
We"ll see you inside.
