Entertainment rights, who announced that the owned the overseas (non North American) rights for distributing Transformers: Cybertron several months ago have now announced, report
TFormers, that they have agreed terms with Cartoon Network to broadcast the show across Europe in the UK, Italy, Spain, France, Poland, Hungary, Romania and Scandinavia. they are being quoted as having "high expectations of the new Transformers series." and hops that the promotion of the upcoming film will build more interest before the release in 2006.
Cartoon Network can be received in the UK by Digital Cable and Sky subscribers. This limited market, which excludes analogue Cable and Terestrial services, has been partially blamed for relatively weak success of the Transformers: Energon when compared to shows such as TNMT (Boys Toy of the year 2004) and Power Rangers (Market Leader for overall Toy Sales and TV Viewing), both who also obtained Terestrial broadcast rights in 2004 . Approximately 50% of homes in the UK do not have Digital TV with 25% of the UK homes unable to obtain any sort of Digital Service.

Both
TF World 2005 and
The Allspark have discussion threads on the next A;ternator being a remolded Windcharger / Overdrive.
It doesn"t take long to come to this conclusion, as every other mold hsa been used at least twice. Speculation has already started in some areas, with the name Rumble being mentioned a few times, as well as Brakedown (who"s name Hasbro trademarked a little while back).

Hydra custom has posted an assortment list of the Galaxy Force line up on
The AllSpark.
*13 basics, 2 mini-con teams
*16 deluxes
*9 megas
*5 ultras
*4 supers
*2 supremes
Many of the unannounced characters appear to be homages to original characters: last in the list of megas is a Soundwave and Menasor. The list indicates that they"ll retain those names for their American release.
The supers are as follows:
Galaxy Convoy, Master Megatron, Galvatron, Metroplex.
The supremes are Starscream and PRIMUS. The Starscream is the huge Starscream that"s been unveiled already.
Hydra Custom has also posted information on the different worlds in Galaxy Force
Earth (Eclipsing sun)
Speedia (A speed burst of some sort) -
"A planet where speed is everything"
Beast (animal claw) -
"A planet that lives by the law of survival: the strong eat the weak"
Giant (A gear, half larger than the other)
"The planet that both giant Transformers and the minicons hail from"
This is where Metroplex, Menasor, Onslaught, and the Minicons are listed as being from. This is said to be the location of the last chip.
The last symbol is a tiny Cybertron symbol, probably symbolizing the return of planet Seibertron. How this relates to the final planet listed, Planet X, is unclear.
Planet X -
"Are the residents allies, or foes?"
This is where Soundwave and Sideways are said to come from.
