KICKSTARTER: Transforming Expectations

Philip ''BattleGrip'' Reed has launched a new Kickstarter campaign to fund a sequel to his third-party Transformers reference guide, Transforming Collections. Transforming Expectations, as the second book is to be titled, will again feature a number of high-quality color images, all bound in an awesome hardback format.

The project has only been live for a few days but funding is already past the halfway point. Which is awesome, as it not only means the book will be pretty much a shoe-in to be published but that Philip will be able to add a few stretch goals to enhance its awesomeness. Check out the video above and then head over to the book's Kickstarter Page to learn more.
