Japanese publisher Million Hero have updated their website with some more small images and information on their upcoming book Transformers Generations 2011. The update includes an small preview image of the Transformers Unite for the Universe comic that comes in the book and is written by Simon Furman and drawn and coloured by Guido Guidi.
There is also a small preview of the contents and confirmation that the book will cover the later part of the Transformers Animated releases, Transformers United, Transformers Revenge as well as some information on the first waves of Transformers Dark Side Of The Moon.
The book also covers a new "Who's Who" for the "Transformers Hall of Fame", a look at some Generation one catalogues and Kabaya figures

The Allspark have posted a translation of the manga (comic) that came with the Transformers 2010 Generations book. Here is a copy of their announcement.
"Thanks to Allspark members Powered Convoy, lonegamer8, DrSpengler,
NightViper, and Meister79 we now have a translated version of the United Manga (Comic) included within the pages of Generations 2010 book. This manga is written and illustrated by Naoto Tsushima.You can view the manga in low res page 1 and page 2, and in high res page 1 and page 2."

From reading the Million Publishing Twitter page it seems that the company is still deciding on who to use as their book exclusive figure for the upcoming Transformers Generation 2010 book. This morning they blogged that their first recommendation was to produce two exclusives for the book a gold and a silver Rodimus. The toy, I assume, would use the Henkei (Classics) mold and would be based on the Super-Link figures (Gold SuperLink Rodimus, Silver Superlink Rodimus). Though personally speaking I would rather they did a chromed Masterpiece Rodimus as other than looking nicer it would be a homage to the Primus figure they did as well as being harder for knock-offs to be made.
As my brother Moonbug pointed out, the toy could well use the Animated Rodimus mold, which would be a safer choice, but I'd still like to see a Masterpiece used.

Million Publishing have updated their website with some details, as well as a sample image of the cover, of their forthcoming Transformers Generations 2010 book. The book, which is due for release on the 19th November 2010, will include information on the third live action Transformers Movie, Transformers: Dark of the Moon, though that its still tentative so it may be removed before the book is published. It will also cover every item that was released within Japan in 2010 as well as some of the Transformers Revenge items to be released in 2011. If that was not enough the book will contain a special anniversary look at Transformers Headmasters (Fight 2010, Transformers Super Robot) including interviews with Ishimaru Hiroya (Rodimus Convoy), Seizō Katō (Galvatron) and Tashima Shiyou (the Japanese director).
Excited yet? No? Okay well the book does not end there. It will also contain a special historic piece on Rodimus Convoy which will build up to a detailed look at the Masterpiece figure. If you are a Transformers Animated fan, the book will contain pictures of every figure released in Japan in 2010 as well as toys that will be released in 2011, yes there are more Transformers Animated toys coming to Japan in 2011.
Finally the book will cover Transformers United! including publishing a new comic called "A New Battle" by Tsushima Naoto and a look at all the figures. Here is a preview of the cover.
All this will be covered in 96 pages. The books ISBN is 978-4-8130-2130-8

Million Publishing have announced that a new Transformers Generations Book will be released on the 18th November 2010, though no further details have been given though the image on the Million Publishing website, based around a poster for Transformers The Movie, includes Masterpiece Rodimus, and "Welcome to 2010" Unicron so most likely the book will be a collection of the three latest Generations Books plus the newer 2010 toy releases.
You can view a listing for the book on Amazon Japan as well as the announcement on the Million
Publishing website
