What's 'The Ark II' you might ask? Well it is a compilation of japanese generation 1 cartoon character designs from Headmasters, Masterforce, Victory, Zone, and the un-released cartoon Battlestars.

"TRANSFORMERS: The Ark, Volume 2 picks up where the first volume left off, making available for the first time hundreds of rare images chronicling the evolution of TRANSFORMERS in Japan. This volume covers all of the classic Japanese series material: HEADMASTERS, MASTERFORCE, VICTORY, ZONE, BATTLESTARS, and OPERATION COMBINATION. TRANSFORMERS, humans, aliens, ships and weapon models decorate this 208-page volume. If you love animation designs or ever wanted to know more about the TRANSFORMERS Anime, this book is for you."

The first 'Transformers: The Ark Compendium' was a large book available at comic book stores that compiled character show designs for generation 1 cartoon characters.


Now, Jim Sorenson shares on the IDW Forum five of his sample pages. This book is scheduled to be released on July 9th.
