Despite what Hasbro have said about a 22nd June release for Transformers: Animated, the first toy for the line has been spotted. Leader Bulkhead has been found in the US at a K-mart store in California.
This is most likely a mistake on K-mart’s part.
Unicron.com contacted a representative from Hasbro, who told them that 3-horned Dinobot, who is normally known as Slag, will be called Snarl in Transformers: Animated. Snarl is usually used to identify another of the Dinobots.
This will get a bit confusing, a bit like the Rumble/Frenzy debate that has raged since Generation One.
Various reports on the web are reporting that YTV are changing the time slot for Transformers: Animated in Canada.
On Saturdays, Transformers: Animated will move to a 11am time from 23rd March February 2008. There will also be a marathon of Transformers Animated episodes on1st March from 11am, all on YTV.
