TFW is here to bring you coverage on the live IDW Transformers comic panel! This panel gives details on the current IDW books and what the future will hold.
Interestingly, it also may or may not tease a few more combiners who will be showing up in Combiner Wars, and by that extension may hint at some of the future Generations combiner figures. Check it out after the jump (if you don't mind spoilers) and keep refreshing the page for the latest updates. Keep refreshing this page for the latest updates. |

The official Transformers Facebook page has posted an update on Rovio's Angry Birds Transformers. Audio is a key part of any video game experience, be it ambient audio to create a suitable environment to draw you into the game's world or pulse-pounding action themes to get your blood racing during an exciting battle.
For Angry Birds Transformers, it's been announced that the one and only Vince DiCola, who composed the memorable soundtrack to the 1986 Transformers the Movie, will be contributing to the game's soundtrack along with music industry veteran Kenny Meriedeth. The end result is a retro feast on the ears that has the authentic feel of the Transformers the Movie score. Don't take our word for it, though! Spotify has a sampler of tracks from the game for your enjoyment - check them out here! |

Third party group DX9 have updated their Facebook page with an image of a new release they are planning - an unofficial version of Generation 1 Mirage. Said to stand around 16cm in height, DX9's Mirage is scaled with Masterpiece toys. It does, though, seem to copy portions of Hasbro's own Classics Mirage design, with the arms and potentially the whole transformation scheme unapologetically stolen from Hasbro's 2006 toy. Check out the image and see what you think.

Third party accessory kit maker Dr Wu has posted a new image on Weibo showing off one of the next projects they have in the works - an alternate head for Masterpiece Wheeljack. This alternate head allows you to replace the head that comes with the Masterpiece out of the box with one that features light-piped eyes and blue "ears", representative of when Wheeljack would speak in the cartoon. Check it out and see what you think.

Alfes2010 has updated his Twitter feed with in-hand images of the Ultimetal Optimus Prime. This monolithic version of the Autobot leader features a Peter Cullen voicebox, snap on armor, and looks incredible even though it does not transform. It carries a huge pricetag though - and yes, it comes in three boxes! Check out a selection of Alfes' images after the break, and check out the rest in his Twitter feed.

Via the Transformers Universe forums, we have a look at concept artwork of a whole bunch of new character designs for the game. These designs, which come from a fansite kit, are not indicative that all these characters will be playable - however it is a great look into how Jagex has realized these characters many of whom are long-running fan favorites!
The new character art reveals include fan-favorites Ratchet and Hound on the Autobot side, with Swindle and Brawl on the Decepticon side. There's also art for a new version of snowmobile Decepticon Snowcat and a character called Switchblade - who just might be a hint that flying alternate modes may make some sort of appearance up the road. A gargantuan Terrorcon King and some concepts of different locales round out the selection of new artwork. It's all mirrored attached to this post - check it out! |

Remember Transformers: How To Ride A Dinobot! by IDW? 2005 Boards Member Jalaguy is pointing out that the first issue is now available as a free PDF download at the Hasbro Official Website.
The comic features an alternate take on how the Movie Autobots met the Dinobots for the first time. Slash; The Velociraptor is also present in the comic book. It's a fun read and it's free. So, why not have a go? Have a chuckle on this relaxing Sunday... |

After a little bit of silence, the independent group Planet X updated their Facebook page with new images of their in-color prototype of Neptune (based on the Fall of Cybertron Sludge model). With this update we get a good look at the color palette of Neptune as well as a look at the weapons/accessories Neptune will include. The project is looking to ship out from factories this November barring any delay with the detail work that is still being overseen.
Check it out after the jump! |

DeNA; formerly known as Mobage has shared (and taken down) an announcement for a possible new Transformers Mobile Game earlier today. Though the link to the game is now redirected to the DeNA official website homepage, the Facebook post still remains thanks to the Transformers: Legends Fan Page along with a banner featuring a super-deformed Megatron.
Based on the banner, the new game will be called Transformers: Battle League. DeNA has shared the post with the status as "Coming Soon". Any other information regarding the game is unavailable at the moment, but an official announcement is expected (again) soon. ![]() |
