Transformers Robotmasters was a pretty short lived series in Japan, featuring only a few toys and even less cartoon and comic episodes, yet it made quite a big impact when first released.  The toys featured mainly new molds, with a few recoloured toys fom Transfomers Generation Two and Transformers Beast Wars, and was the Japanese take on the Transformers Universe theme, where characters from different Transformers lines were bought together.

The line featured some of the best Transformers toy molds and some of the most popular characters, and also showed how the original Transformers Generation One toy molds could be updated with more articulation, but could still be extremley close to the originals.

To help celebrate this short lived Japanese exclusive line, we have uploaded 21 new Transformers Robot Masters toy galleriesas well as updated 3 existing galleries with new images.

You'll be forgiven if you didn't realiase, or if you forgot, but yesterday marked the 10th anniversary of Transformers At The Moon!

That's right, this site has been online for 10 years - that's longer then most of the "mainstream Transformers sites" and longer than many of the visitors to this site, and our other sites, have been interested in Transformers!!  Shocking.

On 25th October 1999 we uploaded the first rendition of Transformers At The Moon, hosted by our then ISP Freeola.  The sites name mirrored that of the email address we chose that Freeola hosted (an @themoon.co.uk)  domain which read as "Transformers At The Moon".  The domain / name was chosen as a tip of the hat to the Ladybird Transformers Tell-A-Tale Books, which features such names as "Decepticons At The Poll" and "Decepticons Underground".  We felt that an "at the moon" gave it a little bit of a spacey feel.

Anyway that was then, this is now.  We've been busy over the last 10 years, spent lots of money on the website and toys (one day we'll break even on the cost of the site, which has only seen sponsorships and advertisements over the last few years) and even more time.  Although the time spent updating the site this year has been far less then we had hoped (due to other commitments - namley work) we still have lots of plans, many of which we've had since the very beginning.

Thanks for visiting the site, we hope you continue to do so and if you'd like to contribute anything then please feel free.

Thanks to Matt Messanger, aka King Grimlock, for supplying more images of Transformers Movie Legends Figures for us to add to our Transformers Toy Resource section.

• Transformers Movie Legends Bumblebee
• Transformers Movie Legends Battle Damage Bumblebee
• Transformers Movie Legends Jazz
• Transformers Movie Legends Ratchet
  
• Transformers Movie Legends Barricade
• Transformers Movie Legends Bonecrusher
• Transformers Movie Legends Scorponok 

Many thanks once again to Matt Messanger, aka King Grimlock, for supplying us with lots of images recently, as we've not had time to photograph our Transformers toys due to other commitments.

The lastest updates include

• Transformers Energon Downshift
• Transformers Energon Sky Blast
• Transformers Energon Signal Flare

To celebrate King Grimlock (Matt Messanger)'s birthday, you can now find 5 new Transformers Classics Toy Galleries  which Matt has provided us with (just some of several).

The new galleries feature the following Transformers Toys

• Transformers Classics - Cliffjumper
• Transformers Classics - Optimus Prime
• Transformers Classics - Rodimus
• Transformers Classics - Grimlock
• Transformers Classics - Jetfire

We would like to apologise to you our site visitors for the distinct lack of updates that we have made to the website over the last 18 months.  This has primarily been down to an increase in both of our professional lives as well as some personal issues.  However we want to re-affirm to everyone that we will be trying our hardest to get back to more regular updates of the website including the toy gallery section.  We have photographed perhaps half of our collection over the last 10 years and we really want to push on and complete the job.  We also hope to re-visit other areas of the website that have gone untouched such as the conventions section, site feeds, Firefox plug-ins, videos, store locator, members area and the miscellaneous merchandise galleries.

We were hoping to purchase some rather special and rare items to commemorate the 10th anniversary of Transformers At The Moon but unfortunately talks have currently stalled on those items.

We have updated the In The Media section of Transformers At The Moon, with three new galleries containing Japanese Hobby Magazine Scans.  The image galleries are of the November 2009 issue of Hyper Hobby, the November 2009 issue of TV Boy and the November 2009 issue of TV Magazine.

Only the Hyper Hobby issue contained any Transformers related images, with the toys shown being from the Transformers Revenge, Transformers Device Label, Transformers Alternity and Transformers Disney Label ranges.

The images are mirrors from ModXToys.com

Here is the information regarding the comic. "The story behind this book is almost as unlikely as the book itself. It began with a late night phone call with the gracious and friendly seller of a small group of 80 original owner comics in Litchfield County, Connecticut. The young man was selling the books for his uncle, who purchased all of them on the newsstand in the same general area. Sitting untouched, unbagged, and unboarded for almost 70 years this freak of nature somehow managed to survive in Newsstand fresh shape for decades!!"

The auction has to be seen to be believed, if nothing else just to see how much it finally sells for.  Currently its selling at over $55,000!

I thought we'd start today with a news story of a different kind.  Our thanks go out to Jason Vernon for kindly sending through a photograph of a cake his girlfriend Jules spent three days working on for a friend's birthday.  The cake is of Transformers Movie Bumblebee and can be seen in the image below.  Click on the thumbnail to view the image full sized.

You will now find some updates to some existing Transformers toy galleries on the site.  These include;

• Transformers Animated Blurr - updated with our own images
• Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Ravage - updated with our own images
• Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Human Alliance Bumblebee with Sam - images thanks to Alan Taylor (TheLastAllosaur)
