We knew it was going to happen, but the Decepticon designs have made there way out, in the form of a flyer for SDCC that advertises the new 'Transformers: Animated' series.
Here is the link to the thread that has a scanned picture of the cons.
It looks like from left to right we have:
Starscream, Black Arachnia, Blitzwing, Lugnut(?), and of course, Megatron!
Stay tuned as we keep you updated on SDCC, and if any more comes out about the new animated series in the Seibertron.com Cartoon News Section.

I'm not understanding why Black Arachnia is part of the group. Aren't these supposed to be vehicles? What's she going to become?

She becomes a spider, as always. We saw this in the Botcon panel this year.
Plus, we saw a brief glimpse of Megatron at Botcon, and I don't recall his head design looking that closely to the movie design.

So anyone guess who the big guy is, I could not figure it out.
I have to look back at the Botcon stuff to see what the con names were that were given.

It's looking like they're nabbing bits and pieces from the various past Transformers series, almost like they're giving Universe it's own T.V. series. Just like the Autobot designs are a mix of Cybertron, movie and G1 designs, the Decepticons are yanking stuff from various universes as well. Movie inspired Megs, Beast Wars Black Arachnia, what looks almost kinda like a G2ish Starscream, and an almost Armada looking Blitzwing. I'm not sure if this was intention or not, but I kind of like the mish mash of styles.
Kind of makes me wonder what the Dinobots will be like...

Remember that we saw two different Megatrons. The Cybertronian one, and then his Earth versions. I think they said that Megs will remain in his Cybertronian form till the end of the first season, then he'll be changed. I'm assuming that we get Earth Megs then with his closer to G1 looking head.

hmmm...little to go on.
This reminds me all too much of Advance Wars DS.
I am NOT digging this look at all.
Hopefully the toys will be decent anyways. It's not like I really watch the show anymore is it?

Same.
I'll wait and see how it turns out though, but i'm really not expecting much, so maybe, just maybe i'll be pleasantly suprised.

This is definitely interesting. I really like the G2 comicish Screamer! There's definitely a little of everything thrown into these designs here and that makes it so theres a lil' something for everyone to like! I'm excited for this!!

I was a bit 'meh' about the Autobots, except for Bumblebee and Prowl, but I'm really liking the look of the 'Cons.
(But hey, I like Teen Titans, Samurai Jack, Clone Wars and Kim Possible, so what would I know?)
--EDIT--
Gah, I wanna go home and watch some Teen Titans now, but I'm stuck slowly melting my brain into my keyboard at work instead...
--EDIT #2--
After reading the thread on TFW, I gather that the monocle guy is probably Blitzwing - if they do what they look like they're going to do and treat him like a mock-SS WW2 general type, that could seriously rock - and the... thing... in front of Megs is probably Lugnutz. I haven't been keeping up with the TFA news...

I see. Guess they needed a chick decepticon to balance out Arcee. Despite the questionable designs, I just hope the stories are worth a S#!+. I was a skeptic years ago when Beast Wars came out but the stories were so good that I learned to accept and like the designs.

You know, they don't look too shabby. I really dig the Starscream (especially the huge smirk on his face)and like someone said Megs is a hybrid of G1 and the movie.
