Tranformers Animated guru Derrick Wyatt has updated his blog A Delightful Tedium with an image of what appears to be tribute work for the "cousin" of Omega Supreme.




In the comments section of the blog, Mr. Wyatt noted that the small head given to Spreem is to help give you an idea of the scale of the character and noted that he put more detail into him than the original design used for seasons 1 & 2.

The opening episode "Transwarped" of the third Season of Transformers Animated threw up quite an issue for fans of the fastest Blue Autobot Spy Blurr.

While his ultimate fate was left in limbo, there is some news regarding Blurr's fate from Derrick Wyatt, Lead Character Designer for the Transformers: Animated series.

Posted on Wyatt's Blog A Delightful Tedium is an image that reveals that there is more than meets the eye in Blurr's final appearance in "Transwarped".

The image at the bottom of the post can be considered a spoiler, as it could very well contain spoilers for future Transformers Animated plot points.

tvshowsondvd.com- An update to what is happening with the new release of Transformers Generation 1 Seasone 1 on DVD. New package art is shown (revised actually), the price has been revealed, pre-orders, and the possible producer.

"The Transformers - The Complete 1st Season: 25th Anniversary Edition on DVD, bringing a long-awaited re-release of the first 16 half-hours of the original (and legendary) "G1" series. Retailers knew the title of this 3-disc set, and the pricing ($29.98 SRP)..."

"...we were surprised today when an industry source, on condition of remaining anonymous, supplied us with the below 3D look at the package art for this set! As you can see, it's similar to the temp art which we brought you last time (from Walmart.com's listing), but enhanced with all of the titles and logos and such, and the key art has been corrected (Megatron was reversed on the previous image). Shout's logo, although small, is plainly seen on the lower left corner of the spine. Is it accurate artwork, or just fan-made?

Well, besides the source being super-trustworthy from contributions in the past, the title has now gone up for pre-order at Amazon, and the same package art is displayed there. It's also available to pre-order at DVDEmpire, and the listings at both e-tailers say "Shout! Factory"."

Here is the link to TVSHOWSONDVD's original story, and a link to the new story, where this information is updated.

Revised Cover for Transformers Season 1: 25th.
