TakaraTomy have been tweeting out character models of Beast Convoy, Fire Convoy, Super Mode Convoy, Grand Convoy and Galaxy Convoy to promote the Fans Choice Masterpiece contest which is taking place.  It seems, however, that some fans are incorrectly mistaking these character models for designs of Masterpiece figures of the characters.  They are not. Most of the sheets clearly contain the date stamps and are also available within our Series Bible section of the website which contains various models sheets from Beast Wars and Beast Wars II as well as some Car Robot sheets.  We own character models from G1 through to TF Animated so let us know if you would like to see more of these types of galleries.

The sheets which have been shared by TakaraTomy can be found after the jump

Jim Sorenson has updated his blog, Disciples of Boltax, with a new Ark Addendum entry.  The new entry is the fifth part of Jim's look at Madman's Paradise.  Here is a copy of Jim's description of the character models:

"It's been a long, twilight struggle, but we've made it through Madman's Paradise!  We come to the final batch of models, the Golden One's loyalists. 

Here you can see one of the tricks I sometimes employ.  Treant the second and treant the first are obviously very similar models.  To keep them from looking TOO much alike, at least on a subconscious level, I reversed the second one.  It also makes the page flow better.  Note that I didn't do that with the second Birdman model, because I believe it's just the same guy carrying some explosives. "

Jim Sorenson is back this week with another edition of The Ark Addendum.  If you pop on over to his blog, Disciples of Boltax, you will find a new article titled Madman's Paradise part 2: Mara-Al-Utha in which Jim covers the character models for the Madmans Paradise episode of Season 3 of the original cartoon, so go take a look

Our Summer Special of updates continues here at Transformers At The Moon, even though we are now well into the Autumn / Fall, with the latest addition of Character Models from our collection.  This evening's updates continues our recent theme of commemorating the DVD release of Beast Wars II by publishing the character models from the show and, as such, we are proud to bring you the following new galleries.

Beast Wars II Backgrounds - This gallery contains 62 scans of backgrounds from the show.  Some of the sheets you will notice have been coloured, by hand, this was not done by ourselves.

BB - We have published 5 scans of character models for BB, one of which is an early concept art.

Big Horn - We have published 19 sheets of character models of the Cybertron known as Big Horn.

Bigmoss - You can now find an image gallery containing the 5 character models for the Insectron Bigmoss.

Dirge - You can find 7 character models of the Destron Dirge from the Beast Wars II show.

Dirge-gun-  During the Beast Wars II series Dirge gets upgraded into Dirge-gun and so you can also find 5 character models of that character

Diver was one of the original members of Leo Convoy's Cybertron's and now 11 character models of the little green frog are available for you to view.

Drillnuts - Drillnuts is another member of the Insectrons and was a toy that we purchased whilst at Auto Assembly 2011, so we actually owned his character model before we owned the toy.

Jim Sorenson updated his blog the Disciples of Boltax during the week with another Ark Addendum.  This weeks entry was entitled The Ark Addendum - Desertion of the Dinobots (part 1) and, as the name suggest, features some character sheets from the Generation One Cartoon Episode, Desertion of the Dinobots.

Here is Jim's take on this weeks entry "Usually on multipart episodes I just mix up the models, as they tend to be pretty similar thematically.  Not this time though, no.  Part one gives us a nice variety of Earthen backgrounds.  We start out at the EJK Science Complex - I love the vault there.  When the Decepticon attack on that is foiled, Spike relaxes at the Fun A Rama amusement park before heading to the Central City Airport to pick up his dad.  Finally, after the Decepticon base there is rooted out, they go to recharge at the DLP Electric plant.  One thing that's interesting to me is how each of the places they visit has a name, at least on the model sheet.  I wonder what that's about.  "

As part of his updates to the Disciples of Boltax, Jim Sorenson has added a new entry for The Ark Addendum, Carly and Chip.  Though previously included in The Ark books Jim, via Kjeevahh on behalf of Lexmc, has now been given a new, more complete character sheet of both these characters.

"I've previously included models for Chip, though the models that I won as a part of the Frieman material were different and, I believe, more finalized than what was published in The Ark.  This is one of those pages that I deeply wish I could go back and insert into The Ark, but alas I suspect that that train has sailed" Jim himself blogs in reference to the new material­ which you can find here.
