"'The Raven - Legacy of a Master Thief' is a thrilling crime adventure in three episodes from the creators of 'The Book of Unwritten Tales'.

Is somebody trying to follow in the Raven's footsteps? ­ Legrand is back on the case. At the same time in Zurich a phone rings. Constable Anton Jakob Zellner looks up from behind a mountain of files. He has no idea what lies hidden in a bank vault, just a few hundred meters away from him. As he reaches for the receiver his life takes a crucial turnŠ King Art's thrilling crime adventure ­ full of twists and turns ­ immerses you in both sides of the story, combining elements of classic whodunit and heist stories.

AlienKane and DallasSuper7 wrote in to say Alien Figures and Glasses Shipping! That's pretty solid news there.

In case you missed the memo, there's a significant packaging variant - pre-orders from Super7 (like the early bird kit) get blue-bordered cardbacks. Buying from elsewhere (like Entertainment Earth) gets you black bordered carded figures. Which is better? Heck if I know.

Shipping confirmations begin next week. Also, you can order from our sponsor Entertainment Earth - five figures for a mere $65. Notable: Kane's head in the photo is obscured by a lens flare and a helmet. Ash is nowhere to be seen on his cardback.

Transformers: Club Reveals Rattrap, Tankor, Crosscut, and hints at Nightbeat

TransformersRattrapImages already leaked to social media outlets, but TFW2005 has more of the scoop. In the Collector's Club magazine #54: Transformers Generations 2014 Deluxe Wave 3 Details!

Shown are Crosscut, a silver redeco of the just-released (and just-reviewed) Skids from Wave 7. Crosscut is a Japanese eHobby character, and as such is unknown to any old-school-only fan. Rattrap looks solid in both modes and is a new mold with a rat mode not as adorable as the cartoon, not as grotesque as the toy. Joining them is a new Beast Machines Tankor, trading heavily from his cartoon appearances. Each version of the mold is quite different, so I wouldn't suggest throwing out your old ones - they're still good for different reasons. I'm buying this one too, I loves me some Vehicons.
