I have updated both Transformers-Prime.com and Transformers At The Moon with an image gallery and review / synopsis of the latest episode of Transformers Prime, episode 9 Convoy.

The image gallery contains 336 stills taken from the show in high resolution and can be found within the resources section of Transformers-Prime.com and the Cartoon section of Transformers At The Moon.  You can find direct links to the galleries here on Transformers-Prime.com, and here on Transformers At The Moon.

Transformers-Prime.com uses a fancybox style image gallery which can often make it easier to view the images.  You can also use your keyboard to toggle between the full size and scaled versions of the images by using the up and down cursor keys on your keyboard.

I have updated the Magazine section of the website with four new galleries of scans from recent issues of both the Japanese television, toy and hobby magazines called TV Magazine and TV Boy.  You can find galleries for the Jan 2011, Feb 2011 and March 2011 issues of TV Magazines along with the March 2011 issue of TV Boy.

Transformers At The Moon and its sister website LuckyDrawTransformers.com are the contain worlds foremost archive of TV Boy and TV Magazine  and we still have between 60 and 80 back issues that we own to scan.  These issues contain several never-seen-before in the west or rarely seen images of Japanese prize toys including the Gold Dinobot, Rhinox and Cheetor figures.  Stay with us over the coming months as we will be added back-issues of TV Magaine, TV Boy, Hyper Hobby, Figure King and Comic BomBom from Magazines we have purchased over the last 12 months.

The Transformers Collectors Clubhas updated it's website with the Animated Transtech Cheetor.

The Hub have sent out a small PR email that contains tow images from episode 9 of Transformers Prime.  The "exclusive" images are not really exclusive to anyone as The Hub's mail distribution is quite wide at the moment to draw interest towards the show.  The new episode, which will air tomorrow, is called Convoy and the images show Optimus Prime in vehicle mode complete with a trailer.  You can view the images below.

HubWorld has added a new Transformers Prime feature to their website, Raf's Notes! 

This is designed to be an in-character "behind the scenes at Autobot base" look at Transformers Prime.  The official spiel follows;

What if you could have secret access to the Autobots' base, getting the inside scoop on their latest missions and battles with the Decepticons? Well, that's Raf! He's got full access to all things Autobots, and he's taking notes.

We scored you exclusive access to his laptop, so now you can peek over his shoulder and see what's really happening behind the scenes. (Just don't tell him we gave you the secret password, or he might hack our system.) Check out Raf's Notes every week -- EXCLUSIVELY--here on HubWorld.com!

Jim Sorenson has updated his blog with another Ark Addendum, this time entitled Crosshairs, TRANSFORM!

­­The entry focuses on the transformation sequence of Autobot Targetmaster Crosshairs and his targetmaster partner Pinpointer (Pointech in Japan).  Here's Jim to tell you a little about it.

"Today I'm feeling like getting away from the Sunbow cartoon and dancing over to Japan.  We haven't done a Transform sequence in a while, so how about... Crosshairs!

One thing that's a bit odd about the sequence is how we see his Targetmaster fly away from him in the second step... but then Pinpointer (or Pointech, if you're feeling the Japanese love) isn't on the model in step one.  Whoops!  Anyway, enjoy!  "

Our thanks go to Red Leader of KapowToys for posting a link on our message board to to the Kapow Toys Blog article which contains some new images of the upcoming Transformers Dark of the Moon Barricade figure.  You can view the mirrored images below.
