Loving the look of that Henkei! manga. I'm guessing that that is Starscream's Ghost, what with the "sparkleys" surrounding him.

Though, I am a bit curious about that second-to-last image with the Protoform-esque Optimus Prime and the Starscream, both cut open and showing their insides.

And even more evidence that Alternity BB looks horrible.

If I were to guess, I'd say it's a MechAlive feature.

What's with Ratchet?

I think that if they release an HA Ratchet, I'm definitely down for that.. Leader starscream, Buster Prime, and a New retooled leader Megatron with an HA blackout, and I'd be fine..

Awesome work MKALL!! you rock! :APPLAUSE:

I love the Images of the henkei comics in color!! nice!!

buster prime looks awesome.... but im really interested in those protoform/skeletal versions of prime and ss. that HA ratchet doesnt look too bad either

If they're gonna do a HA Ratchet, all I ask is that he have the gun and saw he had in the movies. Not that silly butterfly-looking thing the voyager toy has.

And do all those figures make up that 1 gestalt? A Lion, a cat-thing, a rhino, a bird, a horse, a jet, a tank, a helicopter, and a train. WOW! I want that! Takara/Hasbro, MAKE THIS...NOW!

Looks cool, but I'm betting it was a concept for the Predacons and Predaking. If they did something like that now it would be ridiculously simple...which is why I'm saying G1 sketch/concept. They made MUCH better animals in the Beast Wars line.

Aw man that is such bs. Why are they not gonna make that human alliance ratchet. Ths thing is sweeeetttt. The human figure it comes with also looks sweeeetttt. See this is hasbro. They create a great idea never to see production. IIIII WWWAAANNNTTTTTTT OOOONNNNNEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!! or 2 or 3 or 4. Come on make it hasbro.

A rescue truck with a missile rack on the top? Eh, why not, I'd buy it.. and sit back to wait for the dessert/jungle/urban cammo repaints.
The beast bots look cool.. but didn't Power Rangers have those same bots back in the 4th or 5th season? Aww hell, who am I kidding, I'd buy it.

That Gestalt? looks like it could be some sort of power rangers throwback and that helicopter blade is positioned in a funny spot (at least at first glance). Fort max would be jealous... :lol:

Very cool pictures. I'm also interested in the protoform figures.

That's not a HA Ratchet, it's just the Voyager Ratchet that they modified slightly.

Who says they can't retool Voyager Ratchet into a HA figure?

How much of each of the previous two books was concept art and sketches?

Damn it.

On a scale of 1-10 with 11 being Totally Rad...how cool are these books?

Well i never hopped for a Human Alliance Ratchet so small but i'm still waiting for a Human Alliance Ratchet and Ironhide whit new molds and in the same scale of Bumblebee. I think i can still dream on that.

Blogger br08272001 got his hands on the latest Transformers Generations 2009 Volume 3. He also updated 18 images of the contents of this book.
Apparently the focus of this book is on the ROTF Toy lines, we also get a good look on how the fuel tanks of ROTF Buster Optimus Prime transform into his hand gun.

Looks great! Though I do like the way the tanks sit on the back panels of my Leader OP.

nice new pics.... this gets me more excited for buster prime.

....and my curiosity has increased even more for those protoform lookin bots. from the profile, one of them looks like barricade? or a ford mustang at least?

.... and those robo-q's dont look too bad either
