An auction on eBay that recently ended shows more close up details of Transformers: Animated Lugnut from Hasbro. The photos of the loyal Decepticon are of the figure in full colour with both robot and vehicle modes shown at different angles.
There is also a comparison photo with Transformers: Animated Optimus Prime and a scale to show how tall he is.
Another update from Transformers.com, this time in the Transformers: Animated section with new character bios.
After his debut in ‘Sound and Fury’, Soundwave is now online as well as the Dinobots, Grimlock, Snarl and Swoop. The bios also confirm that Snarl is now used instead of Slag and Grimlock is known as Autobot Grimlock, who is apparently as strong as Megatron.
Voice samples have also been added to the profile pages of Starscream, Megatron, Lockdown, and Blackarachnia.
Some new photos of Transformers: Animated Ratchet have appeared on Actoys.net (via TFClub.com) showing a range of poses in robot and vehicle modes and throught the stages of his transformation from one to the other.
The figure is also in it’s final colours with all the accessories, that seem to cleverly store in his back.
The first details of Transformers: Animated being released on DVD have been revealed today. Surprisingly, they have come from Paramount Home Entertainment and not Warner Home Video, who own Cartoon Network.
The first releases is simply listed as being 70 minutes long in full screen with an English stereo audio track. The DVD is due for release in North America on 17th June. It is assumed that the disc will contain the animated special “Transform and Roll Out”.
We will attempt to find out more about this and other releases soon.
Just a quick reminder that the next Transformers: Animated episode airs today in the USA and Canada. Cartoon Network will air the episode first at 10:30am EST, with YTV airing the episode slightly later at 11am EST.
The title of the episode is ‘Lost and Found’ and introduces us to some new Decepticons who arrive on Earth.
Cartoon Network have updated their online tv guide with news that a new episode of Transformers: Animated will air next Saturday (8th March). The episode is “Survival of the Fittest”, and airs oat 10:30am and again at 11:00am on Sunday.
This Saturday (1st March) also has a new episode, “Lost and Found”.
Hasbro have released some official pictures of upcoming Transformers: Animated and Transformers movie Premium Series toys.
First up are Premium Series Autobot Jazz (Deluxe), Premium Series Barricade (Deluxe) and Premium Series Megatron (Leader). All are due out very soon in North America.
The Transformers: Animated figures on show are Leader class Bulkhead in robot mode and the Megatron Arm Blaster. Both these figuses are due for a European releases, but no date is know.
A new auction on Ebay shows detailed picture of Transformers: Animated Voyager Optimus Prime. There are detailed pictures of Prime’s face with his face-plate down, with the added value that the figure is it’s final colour scheme.
TF@TM are reporting that NickToons will start airing Transformers: Animated in the UK from 25th March 2008, starting with the 3 part animated special ‘Transform and Roll Out!’. The full series will follow the next day, with a new episode airing every day until the first series finale on 7th April. Each episode will air at 4:30pm with repeats starting from 8th April.
This would mean that the series would end about the same time as the USA and Canada, who both only get one episode per week.
