We've been reporting on the status of the release of Steve Jablonsky's musical score for the <a href="http://webmaster.transformersmovie.com/click.html?c=FLINCG" target="_blank">Transformers Movie</a> for some time now. Over the weekend it was reported that plans for the release of the musical score were in the works. It appears that it will be coming out sooner than any of us thought, as this week's <a href="http://www.diamondcomics.com/shipping/shipping_080107.txt" target="_blank">Diamond Comics shipping lists</a> mention a "TRANSFORMERS OFFICIAL SOUNDTRACK CD" as among the products being released this week. This could simply be a rerelease of the Animated Movie score or the earlier live action CD Soundtrack release, but it could be confirmation of the planned release of the musical score. We're not sure, but be sure to keep your eyes open when passing by your local music store.

Doesn't make sense. First the CD company said there was no immediate plans to release this, now all of the sudden word is that it might be coming out this week. Why not announce it to anyone if the whole idea behind a product is to sell it?!

psst... we're releasing thousands of CDs of this soundtrack tomorrow.... BUT DON'T TELL ANYONE! I dunno if this is the score or not. I dunno why they'd be so dumb not to announce it. I guess I'll believe it when I see it. I hope that I'm wrong and that I walk out the store with a copy in hand, but I'm thinking this isn't the score just yet.

*crosses fingers*'

Here's hopin'.

Well I believe sources this weekend said it was actually coming soon. I know Bay wanted it released.

I agree with ya. Whats with the whole go around if they were planning to release it by next week. : ( If its true. They're stupid for doing that. But nonetheless, I hope I'll see it that soon and cross my fingers.

Let's be completely honest, what percentage of the buying public pays attention to movie soundtracks for the most part, inparticular movie scores? This may not be it, but when it is released do not expect a huge announcement outside the TF sites.

See Bitching can change the world, I'm getting a flat screen this weekend, so I'll look into this when I pick it up.

TV TF Marathon at Evilmus' this weekend, BYOB!

Also, that was real fast for a greenlight release of someting that wasn't going to happen. It makes me wonder if all this was a ploy to generate sales?

All these twists and turns are starting to make no sense. Though I hope that they do indeed release the soundtrack as soon as possible, it seems odd that they haven't released any official info.

Let's hope that this is the Score to the movie. I want it sooooo bad.

I hope it is, I want that Church Music song played during the arrival of the other Autobots
