Metrodome... Where are we up to with UK DVD releases?

I did try to find relevant information on Metrodome's forums, but they're still largely unusable due to incredibly bad design and mostly seem to consist of fans speculating about what Metrodome might do next and/or complaining about lack of information...

So where are we up to with the UK releases of TF stuff?

I saw this 'Ultimate Edition' of TFTM on Play, which I presume is their re-re-remastered version. How does it compare to the Sony 20th Anni set and its features?

I also saw Beast Machines Season 1, which appears to have no connection to Metrodome. I thought Sony had the UK licence for BW / BM - anybody know anything about this one?

What about Zone (I see Scramble City is listed among the TFTM features)? Or BWII / BW Neo?

And while I'm at it, any word on a (full!) UK release of Armada / Energon / Cybertron, just in case I'm ever feeling flush and in a completist mood? I gather these are owned by Entertainment Rights outside of the US, but I don't know anything about their release plans.

Cheers all...

I highly doubt Metrodome will ever get BW & BM on DVD, but I am praying for BWII & Neo though

I'm already figuring I'll get the Madman sets as soon as I can lay enough cash aside for them - it probably works out cheaper than Metrodome could do them anyway.

While I'm very grateful to Metrodome for actually getting a decent release for series which have never had one before, I have felt a little disappointed in them overall. Still, I guess that's what you get in what is, despite the new movie, still very much a niche market.
