A few Transformers websites had reported this over the weekend, but we'd forgotten to put up the information. If you're not already seen this, here's a breakdown of what is in the Japanese Transformers Song Universe CD pack.
Cover has Convoy (Optimus Prime in Transformers G1), Convoy (Optimus
Primal in Beast Wars, called both Convoy and Beast Convoy at differing
times in Japan), Rodimus Convoy (Transformers 2010, Rodimus Prime in
Transformers G1), Star Saber (Transformers Victory), Convoy (Micron
Legend, Optimus Prime in Transformers Armada), and Convoy (Transformers
Kiss Players, Optimus Prime in Transformers Alternators)
The song has nearly every Japanese Opening, Ending, and Insert song
(Beast Wars Returns used the Beast Machines theme, so it appears to be
left out). Not sure if anything else is missing but it appears to be
quite awesome. Transformers songs that were done by Kageyama Hironobu
(DBZ fans, you know him) and Wada Kouji (all of us Digimon fans know
him). English translated tracklist courtesy of Fenrir and DigistarDBZ
(who got it done quite quickly after I asked them to)
