Some of you may have missed the launch of Version 9 of Transformers At The Moon, some 3 years after work first started on the new layout, code and features. You can't help but notice the changes, the three column (holy-grail) layout that is now used, a return to the drop-down horizontal menu and introduction of "focus areas". These focus areas are helped to show you the vast content that you can find within the Transformers At The Moon database, and website. The area that i'll focus on at the moment is Resources.
The Transformers At The Moon resource section contains over 12 years of information that we have collated over the lifetime of the website. This information includes images of various Transformers merchandise, from rubbers to store displays, through to concept art and production pieces.
If you click the Resource Section you will find a list of different things to read and look at.
- Transformers Toy Galleries - over 2,200 different Transformers featured. Our 99% complete G1 (including Japanese) collection will contain toys that you cannot see anywhere else. Of cause there are also Lucky Draw Transformers toys, that we are known for, and also Hardcopies from different lines, production samples, testshots and prototypes.
