S250 has published part 5 of his Transformers Animated Season 3 PuzzleMaster puzzle which will reveal the identity of a new character for Transformers Animated.  You can find the three new pieces below along with the whole picture that has been revealed so far.

eBay seller yizhi521 has posted an auction on eBay for the soon-to-be-released Target Exclusive Stealth Lockdown plus Legends three-pack.

Thanks to an image being posted by ijuintekka.com(since removed), we can bring you the full profile from the back of the Transformers Animated Skywarp box

Motto: "They're heading right for us! Run!"
Function: Fearful Super Pilot

Profile: SKYWARP wouldn't call himself a coward.  He'd call himself smart.  So what if he runs away from combat?  Fighting is dangerous!  All those missiles and lasers could really hurt somone!  As a clone of STARSCREAM, he's got all the power and skill of the leader of the DECEPTICON air forces, but none of the courage or ambition.  He could easliy be one of the most danerous DECEPTICONS of all time, but since he screams and runs away the second a shot is fired, he's mostly just a joke

Galatic Powers and Abilities:
Gets shot in the back more than any other DECEPTICON
Uses his teleportation ability to run away faster.
Even just seeing a picture of MEGATRON gives him nightmares

The Transformers Animated season 3 rumours continue with Unicron.com quoting an un-named source as supplying them with the following information
