And of course, because WHY NOT, Windblade.

I honestly hope to God that's just a cover cameo.

If you read it, you will discover that it is not windblade....
Theres also a picture of a character within that looks like the Beast Hunters Bulkhead mold, but isn't Bulkhead.

So in other words, it's following the Beast Wars: Uprising tradition of giving new body designs to preexisting characters based on preexisting toy designs that originally belonged to the toys of other characters.

Any chance we might get a Club toy of Stiletto from a remold/repaint of Windblade?

Ladies and gentlemen, Ask Vector Prime has given us our first official FEMALE Optimus Prime (and Scourge)! - https://www.facebook.com/AskVectorPrime/posts/712416625556977

Dear Vector Prime,
What universe were the Spychangers who were warped from their home universe and fought on the ice planet against Reptillion from?
.
.
Originally, they were from Viron 1103.12 Gamma. In this timeline, Optimus Prime downsized her troops after Sky-Byte inadvertently rendered nearly all energon on Earth toxic. At first, Megatron and the Predacons laughed at these smaller adversaries and applauded Sky-Byte's brilliance. He was more than happy to claim credit for his accident. However, a commando strike by Daytonus and X-Brawn soon rendered the Predacon's stockpile of uninfected Energon inert. The war ground down as they ran out of power. Only Scourge was able to use the Spy Changer upgrade on herself, and she alone was no match for the thirteen Autobot Spy Changers active on Earth.

This is the Universe 2003 Spychanger Optimus Prime from the OTFCC 2004 Voice Actor Drama, who was voiced Michelle Carolus.

The Scourge of this universe is also counted as female due to the cloned nature of the character.

"Viron 1103.12 Gamma" refers to the RiD 2001 universe witnessed in a space bridge portal seen in the Armada Dreamwave comic issue #17 "Worlds Collide, Part 4 of 4".

This Ask Vector Prime post is amazing! - https://www.facebook.com/AskVectorPrime/videos/716462811819025/

Dear Vector Prime,

Whatever became of Sky-Byte after Galvatron and the other Predacons and Decepticons were captured?
.
.
Dear Oceanic Observer.

Perhaps I should let him tell you in his own words.

Clicking above link plays a video recording of Peter Spellos in character as Sky-Byte answering the question of his fate following the 2001 Robots in Disguise cartoon. :-D

So are we supposed to get some more Beast Wars Uprising prose fiction, or was Burning Bridges the last?

Wait. The Dark Heart of Sandokan and The Razor's Edge (but which is still accessible via this link) are missing.

And Wreckers: Finale Part II is unclickable.

Thanks this was just what I needed to catch up on some old ones.

That's really cool that it's all available in one spot. With that and Sabr's list as a guide, I can go try to catch up on some of this material at long last.

Speaking of that list, I'm trying to work on expanding it as there are several things missing from it (both old and recent). I just got the 3H section reorganized and with just about everything from that era added in, but tackling the Fun Pub section's gonna be a BIG endeavor.

Directly from the Transformers Collectors' Club ambassador to Seibertron.com, and comics writer TF_JW, we have a look at the cover art for the Transformers Timelines #11 Diamond Edition cover, plus a couple of things to add to what's to come in 2016. Keep in mind the recent membership announcement, and it definitely sounds like times are a-changin'. Let us know what you think in the Energon Pub!

Hate to be that guy.... But, isn't that the wrong Lio Convoy? In the bottom left of the comic cover it looks like 'normal colored' White Lio with the Gold mane. But isn't it supposed to be the Blue/Red Lio with the Silver mane? (See attached picture for reference)

Andrew Hall (writer of the Leo Prime bio for Takara Tomy's Arms Micron/TF Prime toy line) and I had been plotting Lio Convoy/Leo Prime's journey through the Multiverse to his new home.

During the travels he showed up in Axiom Nexus in red and blue, but changed to white and gold. And from that body transitioned to the Arms Micron one. (Keeping in mind he's originally from 10,000 years in the future and is doing some time traveling and universe hopping between these bodies).

So yes... different colors. But not necessarily wrong... if you allow for some author intent that probably would never see print.
