So many good news. I like the futuristic looking bb and Sari. All hail Megs I cannot wait to get, the preview is the bomb. Animated, I hope it will be good, and doubledealer spotlight should be good! Did I see jazz on that prequel, this will be very good. What is anyways?

That teenage Sari is kinda creepy. And not in a kinky way.

I'm waiting for Classic The Transformers Vol. 2!

I take it the artist like the Animated Bumblebee toy. Take a look at the cover with the teenage Sari, Bumblebee's got his backpack and his car lights on his foot are facing upwards.

Cause he's a bad guy, maybe?

Also, that cover of Spotlight: Doubledealer is pure win. And I had a feeling that Time Wars would be the next Best of UK reprint.

Is anyone else a little confused with the Soundwave picture? The drawing doesn't really fit as a comicbook cover, especially with the notes - glass with sensors behind it, hydrolics, G1 style helmet with classics cartoon face, joint for shoulder gun. And little things like a communicator that extends from the side of the helmet.

It seems more like concept art for MP Soundwave. Could this be a joint project with Takara and Hasbro? Or, did IDW just come up with this design independently since they have been including other MP style characters in their previous comics.

It looks like HGuido doing sketchwork. I'm betting they're just throwing it on as an incentive "sketch cover".
