Site owner Seibertron is on the field in Rhode Island, as the preparations for HASCON are almost complete, and he sends our way a preview of what's to come from the official guidebook for the event, and the mini-comic featuring the Transformers we all love and know - of sorts.

We know this is nothing more than a teaser, though it features the new 'evergreen' Bumblebee design too, right on the cover, but stay tuned for coverage of the event all weekend long, right here at Seibertron.com!

There will still be some time before any actual content appears from Hascon in Rhode Island - the first multifranchise event directly organised by Hasbro in their on back yard - but some members of staff and press did get an early preview of the show area if nothing else, and posted the images on social media. The most relevant to us come from Magic The Gathering's Head Designer Mark Rosewater, which not only shows more of the Hascon exclusives (including the early access Arcee/Ultra Magnus set seen here), but also the Transformers area for the show, featuring some Allspark Tech and heavy The Last Knight merchandise and props. Take a look below!

Compared to an optimus from a cartoon that ended 30 years ago?

You mean the one that most consider timeless and refuse to let die?
