Transformers Animated.com has been updated with a new wallpaper, this time featuring everyone's favorite multiple-personality Decepticon Blitzwing.

The wallpaper is avaliable in three sizes and can be loaded from the Transformers Animated Wallpaper section of Transformers Animated.com.

Website ComicsInfinity.com have updated their pre-order page with the first two issues of the Transformers Animated Trade Paperbacks. This First Volume contains the entire first episode (70-minute special), while the Second Volume contains 2 later episodes. Both Volumes are of the "Cinemanga" style.

Thanks to Chazrt for posting the following video from Transformers Animated on YouTube.

"We regret that we will have to back out on the exclusive showing of the first episode of Transformers: Animated at the Arlöv Mini-Con this weekend. Both we and Hasbro Nordic thought we had permission to show the full episode, but it seems there was either some miscommunication or just a case of conflicting opinions at Hasbro USA. First one party told us yes, but later another party said no.

We want to emphasize that Hasbro Nordic's manager wanted to make the exclusive showing possible, and thanks to his efforts we can still show a partial preview of the episode, just not the full episode. So you will still get a taste of Transformers: Animated at Mini-Con!"

A new auction has shown up on eBay featuring the soon to be released Transformers Animated Prowl figure. The figure, a pre-production sample that a retailer has received early, is sealed, and shows off the packaging for the Transformers Animated toys for the first time.

Hasbro UK recently submitted episode 1 of Transformers Animated, dubbed Transformers Animated - The Battle Begins to the BBFC for rating, receiving a PG rating due to cartoon violence. This is great news for UK fans, as the DVD will no doubt be with the TF Animated Battle Pack W/DVD reported back on the 6th October.

Massive news for Nordic fans, and pretty darn big for the rest of us, as NTFA.net report that the first episode of the brand new Transformers Animated cartoon will make its worldwide debut at the NTFA Mini-Con ( a fan convention) in Arlöv, Sweden which runs from November 3rd to November 4th 2007. You can view the original announcement here.

Transformers Animated Deluxe Ast: SKN#493859
Transformers Animated Voyager Set SKN#494440

Those are the first Transformers Animated SKN numbers to be reported from the US.

TFWorld2005 posted them earlier today

See the links above for references on what several of these assortments will be. At this time, there is no confirmation on what the "TF Allspark Blaster" will be. Also, please note that the Animated Voyager-size class listing is described as a "set" instead of "assortment". Anything at this time is speculation, but a "set" typically describes a mutli-pack collection of figures as opposed to an indivudual figure.

Just a quick reminder to head over to the Official Transformers Collectors Club site to check out an advanced look at the cover for the 17th issue of the Club Magazine. As mentioned yesterday the cover shows images of the Transformers Animated Decepticons.

Thanks to TFWorld2005 member Skywarpantulus for posting an image of part of the head of Megatron from the Transformers Animated cartoon series. You can see Skywarpantulus's original thread here and a mirror of the image by clicking on the thumbnail below.

The face of Megatron appears to be from his Cybertronian mode and fits in nicely to the previous news which Skywarpantulus posted regarding spoilers for the Transformers Animated series.
