TRANS-EUROPE-EXPRESS
Europe is growing closer together - and so are we.
Transformers @ The Moon has joined efforts with other European
Transformers fansites in order to hopfully be able to establish an
efficient inter-European fandom. For now, all that means is that our
sites are going to work closer together in the future and will keep
each other updated with news from our respective countries, while
every site keeps focused on the respective national market(s).
The following sites are currently participating:
Transformers
Gthesite for France
The Benelux Transfan
Association (BTFA) for Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg
The Nordic Transfan
Association for Finland, Sweden, Norway and Denmark
The
Transformers for Germany, Austria and Switzerland
Transformers @ The Moon for the United Kingdom
And last but not least,
The Transformers
Archive for the international coordination and as an overseas
partner.
The first project we launch is the EURO-QUEST, an attempt to set up
full checklists for all Transformers releases from recent years. Every
participating site will gather a list for their respective markets,
and all those lists will then be collected at TF Archive.
Other European sites and individual fans (Spain? Italy?) that want to
join the Trans-Europe Express are of course welcome to
contact us.
We have posted an inital topic where you may post queries on this project
here. But for your initial release please post in the relevant topics.
Sightings MUST be of UK, inc Ireland sightings of High Street released NOT import stores, internet etc etc. For the new toys think of it as the multi language packaging.
Proof may be required if your report seems too early compared to others.
Reports need to be Month and Year along with the RRP (if known)
Here are the topics
G1, G2, Reissues
Beast Wars & Beast Machines
RID, Alternators
Armada & Energon
So come on, lets get together as a community and post those original UK and Eire sightings and help show that together the TF community knows no borders

1) The Black Star Saber / Victory Leo sets are due out in the first 10 days of April
2) Overcharge comes with both Cybertron and Destrons symbols as well as an all new one. His profile is
Established as the latest model of "military hardware" produced by the
Transformers" evil creators, the Quintessons. In addition to the Autobot and Decepticon decals, also come with a newly designed original emblem. You get to decide their destiny!
Terrorbot/Spaceborne Trooper OVERCHARGE
Function...Spaceborne Trooper
Transformation...Jet fighter/Tank
In the distant past, "military hardware" robots were furnished and traded to numerous planetary nations and interstellar organizations as tools of the Quintessons" malevolent business dealings. These autonomous weapons would become the prototypes of the Decepticons. The newest model of this line, the Overcharges, were produced as all-purpose combat units, ones incorporated with the Decepticons" distinctively evolved military technology and more than sufficiently endowed with the offensive strength necessary for
global domination.
Weapon(s)...Heat Rifle, Null Gladius
Strength..........8
Intelligence......5
Speed..............9
Endurance.......8
Rank................2
Courage...........7
Firepower.........7
Skill..................7
Total..............53
Overcharge was originally planned for a "Late February" release, but with only 2 days left it looks like it will be a March release now.
