Once that is over there will be a period of regrouping and shifting gears as we move to the next storyline. That would be a good time for new characters to jump in, especially ones bound for Cybertron. Just make sure to familiarize yourself with the rules, history and summary threads so you know the background and setting of the game.

See, the thing is... I'm not overly concerned with what altmodes would fit, which is what a lot of the advice here seems to revolve around, so much as what personality types would fit. Believe me, I have plenty of experience in other campaigns with characters that technically fit the setting, but ended up being useless in the specific storyline due to personality and/or skills that didn't gel very well.
Since only the mods know where the storyline is going, there is something to be said to having a list of characters that they know would be useful in the storyline, or at least give some good indication of what types of characters are needed. "There will be some science exploration on other worlds, so the more technical and scientific types, as well as diplomatic types, would be useful" or "There's going to be a fair bit of fighting, so rough and tough characters will work best", that sort of thing.
