Snakas has published details of the November 2008 issue of Dengeki Hobby Magazine over on his blog in Japanese. Below you will find an English language summary of his post.
The november issue contained four pages of Transformers information. The first being on Transformers Alternity GT-R Convoy including images of the box. The six images showcasing the transformation that appeared in both Figure Oh and Figure King are also published in this issue of Dengeki Hobby. The Japanese Transformers Henkei Galvatron and Ironhide figures are shown with different images to those that appeared in Figure King. Prototypes are shown of Targetmaster Cyclonus, Cheetas (Cheetor) and Hound. The Cheetor images are the same as figure king, but the Cyclonue images are new. Snakas states that this is the first Japanese showing of Anniversary / Universe Hound and that the vehicle mode which is shown in the concept picture is best decribed as a light armored military vehicle and is clearly based on the G1 Jeep. MP-7 Thundercracker is shown in a large photograph which highlights the two different faces of the toy. There is also a package photograph of the BT-22 Convoy figure.
As mentioned in the Figure King coverage, the silhouette of the mystery also appears in the magazine with the words "That super-famous worldwide character". Finally there is an advert for BT Convoy to end the Transformers coverage.
