Released yesterday in North America is Transformers Cybertron: The Ultimate Collection on DVD from Paramount Home Entertainment. The 7 disc set contains all 52 episodes of the series in full frame (4:3) with English Dolby Digital 2.0 stereo audio and no extra features of any kind. The discs are Region 1 NTSC formatted.
Hopefully, if sales are encouraging, Paramount will hopefully release this in the rest of the world.
Paramount Home Entertainment have now sent out the cover for the transforming Megatron DVD case. In a similar style to the Optimus Prime version, it will contain the Two-Disc Special Edition of the Transformers movie, unlike the Bumblebee and Optimus Prime masks, which come with the 1 disc package.
The Megatron packaging is due out in North America on 2nd September, with no news on an international release.

The HD Room has posted the first look at the BD Live features that will be available on the Blu-ray edition of Transformers. Included are scans of the BD guide included with the set and some screens from the actual features, including the status screen,showing the GPS tracker, robot health and status, and a data panel.
Hopefully the location of Barricade with match up with IDW’s Reign of Starscream series and it seems that Devastator is still be used instead of Brawl.
The Blu-ray release is due for 2nd September in North America and 9th September in the UK.
We’ve already seen the Optimus Prime mask that will be included with the re-release of Transformers on DVD, but now the Bumblebee mask has been released by Paramount Hom Entertainment.
This version will be exclusive to Wal*Mart stores (and online) in North America, and will be released on the 2nd September, the same day as the Optimus Prime mask version and the Blu-ray release.
Another Transformers DVD cover has been released today, this time for Transformers Animated Season One. The image does seen to be using some early Animated artwork.
The set is due for out on 19th August in North America from Paramount Home Entertainment. It will contain 13 episodes from season one, not including Transform and Roll Out!, and no extras have been announced, so expect a disappointing bare-bones release.
Paramount Home Entertainment have released the first images of the single disc edition of Transformers on DVD with the bonus collectable Optimus Prime mask. There are no new extra features (apart from the Michael Bay commentary) or any other reasons to buy this new DVD package.
The set is released on 2nd September in North America. On the same day, a transforming Megatron DVD package, in the same style as the Optimus Prime version, will be released.
Paramount haven’t been kind to the UK. They delayed the Energon DVDs, delayed the Transformers movie by a month, delayed the Movie DVD and HD DVD, delayed the two Animated DVDs due out this year and are now pricing the Animated series DVDs at weird prices.
The RRP for Transformers: Animated Transform and Roll Out DVD (68 minutes) has been set at £12.99, but can be found for £8.99 at most online retailers. The Animated Season One DVD, containing 13 episodes, only has a RRP of £9.99, but has a length of roughly 280 minutes, or 4 times as long.
On the good news for Paramount, they are only releasing the Transformers movie on Blu-ray in the UK 6 days after North America, on 8th September. That’s more like it.
For all UK readers who are sick of needless delays, price rises and excuses from major international companies, it’s time to get your pitch forks out again. Paramount Home Entertainment have announced that Transformers: Animated Season One will be released in the UK on 20th October! This is over 2 months after the North American release of 19th August.
Reasons for this delay aren’t known, they probably don’t care about us…
Paramount Home Entertainment have released the cover for the North American version of the Transformers movie on Blu-ray. As you can see from the images, it is exactly the same as the 2 dsic DVD set, expect with the Blu-ray logo.
Paramount Home Entertainment have today released their first Transformers: Animated DVD, Transform and Roll Out, in North America. The 1 disc set includes the movie special of the same name and 2 short animated features as extras.
Forum member ironpyrite303 has informed us that the Target exclusive version includes a bonus disc with a copy of the 4th episode, “Home is where the Allspark is”.
