"Tough decisions on what/what not to cram into eight extra pages of the Ultimate Guide. Finally came down to a whole new section on IDW and recent toy lines (Alternators, Classics). Though there were lots of suggestions floated at Botcon (for which I thank one and all), this seemed to bring us most up to date. If I'd had another 4pp, I'd have definitely included TF Cybertron, but t'was not to be. Maybe if they do a third edition!!!
As for the Visual Guide, it's entirely movie-centric. It's kind of like an Ultimate Guide for the new movie. Lavishly illustrated, background on all the characters (stuff you won't get in the movie ) and so forth.
Plus, while I'm plugging TF books (sorry, Chris), there's You Can Draw Transformers, a (classic) TF-centric art book. Illos by Guido, text by yours truly. Think that's out about the same time as the Visual Guide.
Phew. Now I've got to actually write this stuff!
