With Auto Assembly 2012 just over 100 days away, we're proud to bring you news of the SEVENTEENTH guest to be joining us for this year's convention...
We can now confirm that IDW artist Livio Ramondelli will be making his Auto Assembly debut this year! Livio is the artist of the superb new digital comic Transformers: Autocracy for IDW Publishing. In addition, his credits include Chaos, The Best of Optimus Prime / Best of Megatron trade paperback covers, as well as covers for IDW's Infestation II event series. He previously worked for WildStorm Productions, doing design work for the DC Universe Online game... and he also really loves movies!
Livio will be joining our other comic artists and writers in our extensive guest area signing autographs and sketching for fans throughout the weekend and he will be taking to the stage on Sunday afternoon alongside Nick Roche and James Roberts for a dedicated IDW Panel.
We'd like to thank everyone at the Underbase Podcast for their support in making this possible and putting us in touch with Livio. We're sure everyone will make Livio welcome at the convention.

Auto Assembly have issued the following press release
TF Source Joins Auto Assembly 2012 As Official Sponsor
As Auto Assembly 2012 draws closer, we are now starting to work more closely with partners to bring you the best convention ever this year. As part of this we are proud to announce that - for the second year running - Transformers dealer TF Source is sponsoring the convention.
TF Source has very generously sponsored us with the costs of producing the passes and lanyards this year for the convention which is always a significant cost for us here at the convention. Being a non-profit making event, this support allows us to do much more with the registration fees we receive from our attendees and with our increasing running costs every year this support is vital for us to continue the work that we do.
More details about TF Source - including a list of the full range of Transformers that they stock and information on how to order from anywhere in the world - can be found on their website at www.tfsource.com

Auto Assembly 2012 Third Party Product Official Statement
Transformers fandom has been buzzing the last few days with discussion about third party products and the fact that they will no longer be available for sale from some events. As with many of our friends at other conventions such as Savcon, Slagacon and Dairycon, we believe that Transformers fans should be able to make an informed choice for themselves over whether or not to purchase unofficial third party products.
We have spent the last seven months looking at our policy in relation to these and while we will still prohibit the sale of some items, we will be adopting a more open approach which we believe will be much fairer on dealers and attendees alike and provide a much more enjoyable convention and a better trading experience for everyone.
For more details on Auto Assembly 2012 which is taking place over the weekend of 3rd - 5th August 2012 in Birmingham, England or to book your tickets or find out information about booking dealers tables, visit the website at www.autoassembly.org.uk and for all the latest news on Auto Assembly Europe, visit www.autoassemblyeurope.eu
Simon Plumbe, head of Auto Assembly, has posted an update regarding their 100% record on credit card security across the 12 year history of the convention.
We know that many Transformers fans across the globe are currently concerned about repeated incidents of credit card fraud that have been taking place recently that are affecting many of you in these difficult financial times. To allay any concerns that you may have, bookings for Auto Assembly 2012 are still open and have been unaffected by this and we have not had any issues regarding credit / debit card fraud since the convention started in 2000.
We have been using PayPal to handle all our transactions safely since 2004 and are happy to offer alternative methods of payment for anyone wishing to attend the convention if you do have any concerns about paying using any electronic method. I can personally assure you that none of my team have access to any of your financial details or any of your personal information other than your name, address and email address which we need for the purpose of the convention itself.
In addition, I offer my personal guarantee that none of this information is shared with any third part organisation or individual not involved in the running of the convention.
In addition, I would like to offer assurances to all of you that our sister convention, Auto Assembly Europe, also uses PayPal for all of its bookings and transactions and as such is also unaffected by any credit card issues but they too will also be able to help with any concerns you may have once bookings open for this year’s event later in the year.
