TFW2005 have a thread on their message board with the first 11 pages of IDWs forthcoming Transformers Miniseries The Transformers: Storm Bringer

Hi guys,

Auto Assembly: Target 2006 is proud to announce that a special event is taking place at this year's convention which is taking place in just over two weeks time on Saturday 3rd of June in Birmingham, England...

We are working in conjunction with a UK company who will be running a series of consultation sessions throughout the day for a BRAND NEW Transformers product that they are producing and they want YOU to be involved in it's development. They want to talk to up to 100 Transformers fans at Auto Assembly: Target 2006 to get their views on this new product and your views will help shape this item that will hopefully be hitting the shelves later this year!!

To take part, all you need to do is pre-register for the convention and then we will select 100 attendees at random from everyone who has pre-booked to take part. Because of the nature of the sessions, you will need to sign a non-disclosure agreement and as such the sessions are restricted to over 16s but apart from that anyone will be able to get involved! We must limit this to pre-registrants because of the random nature of the allocations and the age restrictions so we can check this against our records so it's yet another great reason for pre-booking!! If you are one of the lucky participants, you'll find a voucher in your pack that you just hand over to the staff running the consultation on the day. All you have to do is go along at any time during the day and get involved in this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

However, the cut-off date for pre-registrations is closing fast. If you live outside the UK you only have a few days left to pre-register. We MUST have your online bookings in by Saturday 20th May 2006 in order for us to process them and get your info packs and confirmation slips to you in time. If you book after this date, we can't guarantee that your packs will reach you in time for the convention and you need your confirmation slips to gain entry to the event.

If you live in the UK, the postal cut-off date is also the 20th May as this will give us time for cheques to clear into our bank account prior to despatch of your packs. If you are booking online, this deadline is extended until Saturday 27th. Again, if you book after this date then we can not guarantee that your packs will reach you in time for the convention.

We are still getting bookings in faster than ever before and we have now had more pre-bookings than the TOTAL number of attendees for Auto Assembly 2004 and we are looking at beating the total number of attendees that we had last year in pre-bookings alone! It is likely that we will have on-the-door places, but these will be limited and we will post details on the Auto Assembly website, forum and issue details through all major Transformers websites as to the number of on-the-door places available on Saturday 27th April 2006.

We will make information available of how to attend if you are coming along on the day and the process for registering, the delays you can expect and what to do if you have pre-registered. We must stress that any on-the-door places will be on a first-come, first-served basis so we would advise that you arrive at the convention early to ensure your best chance of admission to the convention. If in doubt, pre-register.

Auto Assembly: Target 2006 is now just over TWO WEEKS away... there are no other Transformers conventions planned for the UK for 2006. We are still in talks to bring further guests to the convention in addition to the NINE already confirmed and we hope to have more activities to announce shortly, not to mention the now infamous goodie bag that all attendees will receive full of free gifts with more gifts in the pipeline in addition to those already confirmed!

As there are now only a couple of weeks before the convention, please ensure that you send your bookings to us NOW to avoid disappointment!

Simon and Sven,
Auto Assembly: Target 2006

Unicron.com have put up a transcript of their interview with Don Figueroa that took place on Free Comic Book Day in the US.

Benson Yee has posted on his message board, regarding IDWs Beast Wars profile books. Here's what he had to say.

• I am writing a Beast Wars profiles book with Simon Furman (some folks wondered if it was some *other* Ben Yee).
• Issue #1 of the BW mini gives you a hint as to whether Japanese characters will be in the books.
• The profiles will NOT just be the guys (and gals) who appeared in the TV show (because that would be one very thin book).
• There will be G1 homages and yes, characters (who became BW characters) in the book such as Grimlock. However, they are in the minority.
• This is not some haphazard assembly of characters. Before writing a single profile, Simon and I worked up an entire backstory for the Maxies and Preds taking the TV show and Beast Machines (to a lesser degree) into account.
