Derrick J. Wyatt has answered some more questions on his blog, this time giving some clues to returning characters in Transformers Animated season 3.
As well as discussing who designed who for the new characters appearing, he also states that there will be ore guest voice actors in the upcoming season, as well as a larger role for a former guest actor, which makes this character basically a show regular. Current betting is on either Susan Blu, who voiceed Arcee, Lance Henrikson as Lockdown, Fred Willard as Swindle, John Moschitta as Blurr or “Weird Al” Yankovic as Wreck-Gar.
He also talks about the design for Hot Shot, Red Alert, general character choosing and the fact that there are more Autobots than Decepticons.
Jim Sorenson has updated his blog with his latest additon to the Ark Addendum. This weeks model sheet features the background model to the Quantum Compoundm, as well as an oil platform and oil tankers. These all appeared in the G1 episode, Day of the Machines.
TF@TM have received word from Paramount Pictures UK that the UK premiere of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen will be on 26th June 2009 at The Odeon Leicester Square. The film will either be released nationwide that week, or the following Friday. Also, look out for news of preview screens coming soon.
This seems like good news, considering the first movie was released a month after the North American debut. So far nearly all the confirmed dates for the sequel’s release are on 25th or 26th June, with only France being forced to wait until 8th July.
As with the Maximum Dinobots #1 preview, there is now a Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Prequel Alliance #1 daily preview.
Below are the first 3 panels. The issue is out tomorrow in North America and the day after in the UK.
TFW2005 have received photos of 4 Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen legends figures, all in their packaging.
There are the expected characters, Optimus Prime and Bumblebee, but also 2 of the new characters, Jetfire and Autobot Springer. The packaging confirms that Jetfire will be a Decepticon in the sequel.
Paramount have continued the Transformers boxsets with the release of Transformers Energon The Ultimate Collection on DVD in North America.
The 4 disc set contains all 51 episodes (missing episode 33 – Scorponok’s Scars), is region 1 NTSC formatted and contais no extra features.

The Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen hype starts this week, with the release of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Movie Prequel: Alliance #1, the first of the movie prequels, coming from The Reign of Starscream team of Chris Mowry and Alex Milne.
The issue takes place between the events of The Reign of Starscream and the events of the film, so is essential reading for all!
The official prequel to next summer’s “TRANSFORMERS: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN” film kicks off here! “TRANSFORMERS: DESTINY” is comprised of two four-part stories covering events leading up to the film. In the first chapter of the DESTINY story arc, ”ALLIANCE,” readers will learn more about what happened to SECTOR SEVEN, what happened to the AUTOBOTS, and why their war on our planet is far from over.
Chris Ryall has put up the 3 covers, which show the new logo and layout for the covers, as well as what looks like a new IDW logo.
