According to the Sky TV Guide, the first episode of Cybertron to air in the UK on September 5th will not be episode 1, but will infact be episode 3. This conflicts with previous reports and episode 1 may still be the first episode shown, but it (the Sky TV Guide) is the most recent TV listing so is more likely to be correct. Fans in the UK will be keeping their eyes on Australian TV reports to see where Cybertron starts 'down under', if they start from episode 1, then this will turn things around yet again.
Galvatom has posted here of TFW2005, that Cybertron will start airing in Australia from next Saturday (3rd September) starting with the world premier of Episode 1, in English.

It has been bought to my attention again this morning, that users of AOL may find that they loose acess to our website at random periods. It would appear that at least one of AOLs DNS servers has had its records for both www.transformertoys.co.uk and www.robotmaster.co.uk removed. A few weeks ago, AOL users were affecvted by a corrupted DNS server at AOL which resulted in the main website domain of this site resolving to a German ISP. We have contacted several departments at AOL and asked them to once again fulsh and update their DNS records. Users of AOL can, currently, still access other domains that we are running, however there are no others currently pointing to Transformers @ The Moon. If the problem continues, we shall be posting instructions on our Message Board on how to change your computer to point to a non-AOL DNS server. We believe that some Supanet users are also still experiencing troubles in resolving our domains due to at least one of SupaNets DNS servers still pointing our sites to the webhosts that held the domain upto the middle of March this year. We are still awaiting a response from the Supanet 'team' on this issue.
Both TFormers and TFW2005 report that in this post on Animation Insider, it appears that Transformers: Cybertron si being pulled from the air in the US to make way for more original programming. Now there could be various reasons for this move, it could be going to a 'yet to be determined' timeslot, the viewing figures could be terrible and it could be dropped totallty, they may have shown all of the episodes that have been dubbed so far, or it could be something else. In our opinion, it is unlike to remain off the air for too long, and will probably return in a new timeslot in a month or two when more of the series has been dubbed into English.
TV-Nihon will be releasing their fan-sub of Transformers: Masterforce episode 38 later this evening. They are having troubles with their Bit Torrent tracker, but they will be available on IRC first of all.

Transfandom report that Doug Dlin of alt.toys.transformers has posted information concerning the Japanese repaint of BT-12 Override (originally called Wildrider then called Black Widow, in a different colour scheme). Apparently, the Decepticharge repaint clashed with another popular Japanese series and as such was cancelled. The Black Widow repaint has been postponed but a release is not out of the question.
